SHANGHAI, Oct. 22 (Xinhua) -- As the first exhibit arrived at the National Exhibition and Convention Center in Shanghai Tuesday, arrangements for the exhibits at the upcoming second China International Import Expo (CIIE) officially began.
The exhibit, Model 195 high speed patrol boat, made by Ferretti Security Division, is a 20-metre-long fast patrol vessel, which will make its first Asia appearance at the expo.
