The Taiwan Pavilion in Expo Shanghai will open its doors to the public on next year's Double Ten National Day after it is brought back and reassembled in Hsinchu when the exhibition ends at the end of this month. Hsinchu City Mayor Hsu Ming-tsai and city council speaker Hsieh Wen-chin finalized plans about opening the pavilion on Oct. 10 next year during a meeting Tuesday. Rebuilding work will finish on Sept. 30 and after a nine-day trial, it will be officially unveiled to the public, said Hsieh. The news came after Hsu briefed Hsieh on details of the city government's successful bid to purchase and bring the pavilion back to Taiwan from Shanghai at a City Council meeting. Director of Hsinchu's department of transportation Cheng Chih-chiang said the future tourist attraction will be on the route of a free shuttle-bus service in the east district of the city. The service will begin on a trial basis on Dec. 1. According to Cheng, Taiwan Railways Administration and the Railway Reconstruction Bureau have formed a special commitee to look at the possibility of constructing a Mass Rapid Transit(MRT) station for the pavilion on the Neiwan train line. The group will hold a meeting on Nov. 1. Construction on the Neiwan train line--which is being turned into an MRT line-- is still underway but is also set to open Double Ten Day next year, said Cheng. ]By Yen-yu Huang)
