China elements found throughout host city

From transportation to services, Chinese elements are everywhere during the 2015 APEC Economic Leaders' Week in Manila.

Within the meeting venues, such as the World Trade Center in the Philippine capital, where the APEC International Media Center is located, media shuttle buses are busy transporting reporters. "Look, it's Yutong, which comes from China," said Rely Salbuna, manager of the Philippines Genesis transportation service company, pointing to the Pinyin logo on a bus.

"These Chinese buses have a beautiful appearance, excellent performance and a favorable price. Almost all of the buses operated in the Philippines are made in China," he added.
