The City of PG Twinning With China

Mayor Dan Rogers provided some slides and background information on the City of Prince George trip to China during October 2010, along with other Cities and the Province of BC, to further discussions on Education, Tourism, Economic Development, Transportation and Government Services.  The trip was specific to Shanghai, Jaingmen, Taishan and Kaiping.  Mayor Roger's identified the main objectives of the trip were to Observe and Learn from the Chinese Culture, to gather information relative to potential future relationships with these cities and the opportunity to invite an inbound delegation of Chinese people to visit Prince George in 2011.  The trip was successful, with a contingent of people making a short visitation to Prince George following their trip to the USA before Christmas.  Mayor Rogers indicated a more formal delegation is expected to arrive in Prince George, likely in July 2011. 

Mayor Rogers was thanked by PDG Ron Neukomm, with a donation to our Polio Plus Program.
