Newspapers and news agencies of many countries have lauded the outstanding organization of the 2010 World Expo in Shanghai.
The expo is crowded with visitors but everything is in perfect order, said a report of Romania Press Agency on Sunday.
The agency's reporter also heaped praise on the clean environment of Shanghai, saying that China is trying to show the image of a modernized city with a strong sense of environment protection through the Shanghai Expo.
Indonesia's largest Chinese-language newspaper International Daily News said Monday that the Shanghai Expo displayed China's boom and the rise of other emerging countries, revealed the great drives and charms of the strides of the human civilization, and expressed the world people's collective pursuit for a better life in cities.
"Better City, Better Life," the theme of the 2010 World Expo, posed a harsh challenge for the development of major cities of emerging economies and also provided a rare opportunity for all industries, the paper said in a commentary.
The article suggested leaders and the public of Indonesian cosmopolises learn from the Shanghai Expo and make contributions to building their own cities and to the progress of human civilization.
Austrian media released many stories before and after the opening ceremony of the Shanghai Expo on Saturday.
Austria's largest daily Neue Kronen Zeitung said Saturday that the Shanghai Expo was the most expensive event which cost twice as much as the Beijing Olympic Games.
"Shanghai, the window of China, will also become a center of the world," the paper said.
"Whoever does not show here would disappear from the eyesight of China in 50 years," the paper quoted deputy commissioner of Austria's delegation Brigitt Murr as saying.
For those who want and could do business in China, no one does not hold good prospects of this future economic superpower, it added.
The article quoted current popular remarks in China as saying that "there is no topic that the Beijingers cannot talk about, no food that the Cantonese dare not eat, and nothing that the Shanghai people cannot accomplish."
