Governor leads Georgia delegation into China

Governor Sonny Perdue is in China this morning, kicking-off a week-long trip with state business, academic and government officials. The delegation took Delta’s first daily non-stop flight to Shanghai yesterday morning. After starting the trip in Shanghai, the delegation will go to Beijing where the Governor will open Georgia’s Business Advisory Center. Perdue’s intention is to fortify Georgia’s business ties with China. The country is already Georgia’s second-largest export destination with 1.6 billion dollars in goods in 2007.
