S.A. VIPs set to sell city at China Expo

Awesome news. San Antonio is the only city in Texas sending a delegation to The Shanghai Expo. Link Below:

Two airliners are taking off early this morning from San Antonio International Airport to launch the city's biggest economic push in Asia.

One San Antonio group is traveling straight to Shanghai via San Francisco, to represent the city at the Shanghai Expo world's fair.

A smaller group, with Mayor Julián Castro and other city and chamber of commerce leaders, briefly will stop first in Japan for a courtesy call to Toyota Motor Corp. executives before continuing on to Shanghai to unite with the rest of the delegation.

San Antonio is heavily invested in this week's trip. Area companies pooled more than $500,000 for the three “San Antonio Salute” days Tuesday through Thursday at the $61 million U.S. Pavilion.

“Make no mistake, this is a trade mission,” said China-born City Councilwoman Elisa Chan, who with former Mayor Henry Cisneros raised the city's contribution for the U.S. Pavilion.
