Shanghai Expo breaks visitor target: organisers – Yahoo! News.

I find it interesting that they are mum about the amount of money made or lost or even the number of tickets sold. You should have seen the contortionistic tactics they were coming up with last spring to increase the visitor numbers. All public school students had free tickets and schools were “strongly encouraged” to bring them. Chinese businesses got large group discounts for bringing their employees. I’d expect they’d meet the “visitor target”. In other countries, that number would only be significant as it related to the amount of money that exchanged hands. Ah well, welcome to China.

winner-winner, chicken dinner 🙂
