Recently, I and my family had an opportunity to travel from Shanghai to Hangzhou by the world's fastest train. I must congratulate the entire team for this wonderful design that makes the trip very convenient. It was very smooth and without jerks.
The train station in Shanghai is worth our praise, too, for its security measures and high-end service. Any ordinary individual can follow the system without a problem.
China is set to expand its high-speed train network from 6,920 km to 16,000 km by 2020, which will benefit people by reducing travel time considerably between cities.
At the recent conference on high-speed railway, China exhibited the progress it has made. The development mode, technical innovation and cooperation opportunities must have drawn the participants' interest. I believe many cooperation agreements would be reached to realize the dream of green travel at high speed.
