Mr. Taavi Aas , Mayor of Tallinn, Estonia:

In 2013 I visited Chengdu to have an all-round understanding of its public transportation. And then Tallinn drew upon some of Chengdu's experience in improving its public traffic. A Chengdu delegation will be visiting Tallinn and attending a conference on e-government affairs there. For me and my city, my trip to Chengdu this time is a fresh start. Chengdu and Tallinn have a solid foundation for cooperation. I look forward to a deeper partnership between the two cities.

Ms. Jess Miller, Deputy Lord Mayor of Sydney, Australia:

Chengdu is culturally diversified, with strong urban competitiveness and huge potential of economic and social development. I'm highly impressed by its cultural and creative industries represented by the music and performing arts sectors. I hope for a closer tie between Sydney and Chengdu in these fields, and more exchanges between young Sydney artists and their Chengdu peers.

Mr. Miguel Sangalang, Deputy Mayor of Los Angeles, the US:

Yesterday I visited the Tianfu Greenway, and got some first-hand information about the planning of the Chengdu Tianfu New Area. I found the city has a powerful potential to grow in the future. Last year, Los Angeles set up a representative office oriented in tourist services in Chengdu. The non-stop air links between the two cities have cemented remarkably their people-to-people exchange. This is my first time to Chengdu, and I expect more visits to be here in the future, and a closer tie between it and my home city.
