Dyson, Anthony
In Touch With The World - Hong Kong at Expo '86
<p>designed by Hong Kong Government Information Services</p><p>printed by Hong Kong Government Printer</p><p>The 1986 World Exposition on Transportation and Communication or simply Expo 86 was a World's Fair held in Vancouver British Columbia Canada from Friday May 2 until Monday October 13 1986. The fair the theme of which was "Transportation and Communication: World in Motion - World in Touch" coincided with Vancouver's centennial and was held on the north shore of False Creek. It was the second time that Canada held a World's Fair the first being Expo 67 in Montreal during the Canadian Centennial. It was also the third World's Fair to be held in the Pacific Northwest in the last 26 years as of 1986 and as of 2015 it still stands as the latest World's Fair to be held in North America.</p><p>Expo 86 was opened by Charles Prince of Wales Diana Princess of Wales and Prime Minister Brian Mulroney on Friday May 2 1986. It featured pavilions from 54 nations and numerous corporations. Expo's participants were given the opportunity to design their own pavilion or opt for the less expensive Expo module. Each module was approximately two-and-a-half stories high and had the floor space equal to a third of a city block. The design was such that any number of the square modules could be placed together in a variety of shapes. The roof design allowed the interior exhibit space to be uninterrupted by pillars.</p><p>This World's Fair was categorized as a "Class II" or "specialized exhibition" reflecting its specific emphases on transportation and communications.</p> Hong Kong Government Information Services paperback
