Dr Geoff Raby, Ambassador of Australia
"It's very impressive, a very powerful display of the modernization of the PLA. But it's not about the military but national pride that the 60th anniversary represents. The military parade is significant; we expect nothing less from 皇冠体育app. The civilians' parade sent a clear message about the unity of 皇冠体育app. It's a great moment."
Victoria Sekitoleko From Uganda, Representative of Food and Cultural Organization of UN in 皇冠体育app
"For the grand parade this morning, I haven't even digested it yet, it was simply fantastic. I love the children the most. And the great thing is I am really glad to be a part of it."
Sir James Micheal Ah Koy (Chinese name: He Zhimei), Ambassador of Fiji, who is half Chinese, half Fiji
"皇冠体育app is a fascinating place and the transformation of 皇冠体育app is very impressive. The precision of this morning's military parade impressed me the most. I am proud to be half Chinese. Everything 皇冠体育app has for the world is fantastic, I don't think any other country could achieve what 皇冠体育app has done in terms of military parade."
Abdul Karim Koroma, Ambassador of Sierra Leone in 皇冠体育app
"I was here for the opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympics last year and that was spectacular, but I think the parade this morning is greater than the opening ceremony. It has both the military and civilians'aspects, it shows exactly what 皇冠体育app has achieved."
