A successful international expo needs INTERNATIONAL participation. Countries from every corner of the world are being represented at the CIIE. CGTN's Roee Ruttenberg toured through the National Pavilion and sent us this report.

ROEE RUTTENBERG SHANGHAI "The exhibits here celebrate culture and innovation. Each one, a unique glimpse into that country's national character and trade potential and peppered with a message to the world. Canada wants us to enjoy a healthy lifestyle. Ethiopia wants us to taste its history and flavors. And the Czech Republic wants us to shares in its playfulness."

ROEE RUTTENBERG SHANGHAI "12 nations were selected by China to participate as Guests of Honor. They range from rich to developing, large to small, North and south. All, under the expo's theme: a new era, shared future."

ROEE RUTTENBERG SHANGHAI "Those here say, they are excited about the Chinese market, and their countries are putting their best foot forward. The message of this expo is: everyone is welcome. Roee Ruttenberg, CGTN, in Shanghai."
