Shanghai should make sure the 2010 World Expo is a success and transform the city's economy, while improving people's living standards, social harmony and stability, Mayor Han Zheng said yesterday.
Addressing the annual session of the Shanghai People's Congress, Han told the SPC deputies that the city's economy is picking up steadily and is in a critical moment after withstanding the global financial crisis last year.
The city has set this year's growth target for gross domestic product at 8 percent as the government hopes to improve the quality of the local economy and secure a steady recovery.
