During the three-day 2022 China Marine Economy Expo that wrapped up Saturday, the Chinese maritime surveillance vessel 9012 was open to the public with a daily quota of 300 people. Visitors viewed the vessel’s deck, captain’s bridge, living area and meeting room. They also listened to briefings about maritime environmental protection and coastal defense. On the other hand, the Shenzhen International Marine Week, which opened simultaneously with the expo, closed today.
