An Isle of Man trade mission has arrived in China for a visit the Manx government hopes will ultimately generate new business openings.
Economic Development Minister John Shimmin is heading the delegation which will also outline opportunities to support the Chinese economy.
It comes straight after the Chinese Ambassador to the UK spent three days in the Island learning more about business, education and the Manx culture.
