A themed photography exhibition was held on the morning of Oct. 24 in Singapore to celebrate the 40th anniversary of China's reform and opening-up and also the 28th anniversary of Shanghai’s Pudong new area, Pudong Times reported on Oct. 25.

A total of 60 photographs are currently on display at the China Cultural Center (Singapore), demonstrating a breathtaking change over the past 28 years’ development and opening-up in Shanghai's Pudong area, once a coastal area made up of mudflats which is now a modern district, displaying vitality and prosperity.
