Foreign exhibitor gets China's permanent residence card at CIIE for first time

(ECNS) -- A foreign exhibitor received China's new permanent residence card, known as the "Five-Star Card," at the ninth China International Import Expo in Shanghai on Thursday, marking the first time Shanghai police have issued the card to a foreign exhibitor at the event.

Chiara (transliteration), general manager of Shanghai-based refrigeration equipment company Climaveneta, said she was honored to receive the card, adding that getting it at the expo made her visit particularly special.

More than 300 foreign exhibitors and business visitors registered for this year's expo using the Five-Star Card, a record for the event.
