SHANGHAI: The municipal security bureau yesterday selected 58 engineers for a security technology consulting team serving the 2010 Shanghai World Expo.

The engineers came from various companies in relevant fields, such as electronics, telecommunications and automatic systems. They will help approve key security projects' designs, especially for those located in Expo Park. They will also ensure these projects are running smoothly before and during the 184-day-long event.
