The delegation consisted of over 20 members, which was headed by Mr. Frank Heemskerk, Minister for Foreign Trade of the Netherlands, and Mr. Walter van Weelden, Dutch Ambassador to China & Commissioner General of the Netherlands to the Shanghai 2010 World Expo.
The heads of the Project Division gave a warm welcome to the visiting delegation. Accompanied by the project staff, Mr. Frank Heemskerk and his delegation members stepped onto the main bridge of Dutch Pavilion and conducted an overall inspection on the jobsite. And they also received interviews by the escorted journalists from the Dutch new medias. The delegation members were deeply impressed by the civilized project implementation on site and the advanced project management expertise. After the visit, the Dutch officials gave full recognition on the project implantation situation, and took photos with the project management staff.
