The grand opening of Expo 2010 Shanghai China will be held this evening. On behalf of the Chinese government and people, I wish to extend a warm welcome to all the distinguished guests who have come to Shanghai for this event. I would like to express heartfelt thanks to the governments and people of all countries for the sincere help and strong support they have given to the Shanghai Expo. My thanks also go to the International Exhibitions Bureau （BIE） and other international organizations, and to all the friends who have contributed to Expo 2010 Shanghai.
世博会是荟萃人类文明成果的盛会，也是世界各国人民共享欢乐和友谊的聚会。诞生159年来，世博会把不同国度、不同民族、不同文化背景的人们汇聚在一起，沟通心灵，增进友谊，加强合作，共谋发展。世博会给国际社会留下了追求进步、崇尚创新、开放共荣、倡导和谐的宝贵精神财富，为推动人类文明进步发挥了重要而独特的作用。
The World Expo is a grand event to showcase the best achievements of human civilization. It is also a great occasion for people from around the world to share joy and friendship. Over the past 159 years since its inception, the World Expo has brought together people from different countries, ethnic groups and cultural backgrounds for sincere exchanges, friendship, cooperation and development. It has given us a valuable spiritual asset of pursuing progress, innovation, openness, common prosperity and harmony. And it has played an important and unique role in advancing human civilization.
上海世博会是第一次在发展中国家举办的注册类世博会。这是中国的机遇，也是世界的机遇。上海世博会将向世界展示一个拥有5000多年文明历史、正在改革开放中快速发展变化的中国，搭起中国学习借鉴国外先进经验、同世界交流合作的桥梁。上海世博会更属于世界，未来6个月，世界各国各地区将以世博会为平台，围绕“城市，让生活更美好”的主题，充分展示城市文明成果、交流城市发展经验、传播先进城市理念，相互学习、取长补短，为新世纪人类的居住、生活、工作探索崭新的模式。我相信，上海世博会将书写中国人民同各国人民交流互鉴的新篇章，也将书写人类各种文明交流互鉴的新篇章。
Expo 2010 Shanghai is the first registered World Expo hosted by a developing country. It is an opportunity for China and also for the world. This Expo will present to the world a China, a country with a five-thousand-year civilization, that is enjoying fast development and changes through reform and opening up. It will serve as a bridge for China to learn the good experience of other countries and engage in exchanges and cooperation with the rest of the world. More importantly, Expo 2010 Shanghai belongs to the world. In the coming six months, focusing on the theme Better City, Better Life, the Expo will offer a platform for all countries and regions to fully exhibit their achievements in urban civilization, share best practices and spread advanced ideas on urban development. We will learn from each other, draw on each other's strengths and explore new models of housing, living and working for mankind in the new century. I believe that the Expo will add a new chapter to the annals of interactions and mutual learning between the Chinese people and people of other countries and between different civilizations.
