Ajit Singh, secretary-general of the BFA, told a Xinhua correspondent that he was impressed by the high efficiency and perfect preparations of the Chinese government. "There were a lot of things to do last November, when we decided to hold the Establishment Conference of the BFA this month, and now we have everything we want," Singh said. "I believe that the local people here have never received so many foreigners," Singh added, "and yet they do make us happy and comfortable with their warmheartedness."
