Updated: 2009-07-01 10:28 Construction began on May 8,2009 on Macao's Expo pavilion. It has been designed to look like a rabbit lantern sitting under China's national pavilion. The Macao pavilion will be covered by a double-layer glass membrane and fluorescent screens. Kinetic balloons will form the head and tail of the "rabbit." In Chinese mythology, the jade rabbit welcomes visitors to a magical fairyland. Zhong Yanqun, fulltime deputy director of the World Expo 2010 Shanghai Executive Committee, said the groundbreaking of the Macao pavilion shows the great importance Macao's government and people attached to the Expo.
