The media center also emphasizes futuristic and technological features, including a humanoid robot that assists journalists and staff members with inquiries.

Volunteers provide language services including Chinese, English and French for international journalists.

Ma Wenbo, a postgraduate student at Beijing International Studies University, was reassigned to the media center on Monday after serving as a volunteer at a hotel designated for journalists.

Ma began his volunteer work for the summit on Saturday.

"All those international journalists I've met are well-educated and kind. I've helped several journalists from Malawi with transport and equipment issues, and they've treated me like a friend ever since, which has been very touching," Ma said.
