Hu Chunhua, vice-premier and head of the organizing committee of the 2019 Beijing Horticultural Expo, pressed for further efforts to carry on the Expo prearrangements while presiding over the third meeting of the committee on Aug 16 in Beijing.

Hu fully affirmed the laudable progress of the preparation. And he pressed all member departments to continue to drive forward the project efficiently with a problem-solving attitude and specific work plans.

All units concerned should properly arrange the overall planning of significant international events, accelerate the contract signing with overseas participators, push forward high-standard construction of the Expo and auxiliary facilities, map out events during the Expo, and ensure premium services and foolproof security work. More related tasks are also to be accomplished.

The 2019 Beijing Expo calls for solid organization, coordination, and cooperation among all parties concerned, said Hu.
