Global Business Advocates LLC President Gus Hein recently returned from a 7 city swing through Asia to promote business development and projects on behalf of GBA's clients. Mr. Hein made visits to

Dalian, Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Hong Kong, Saigon, and Seoul. Hein said that despite still feeling the affects of the economic downturn, Asian economies

were starting to show some signs of progress. Much of it driven by China's 4 Billion Yuan stimulus package and a strong infusion of infrastructure investment. Full recovery won't occur for 2-3 years. The Port of Wendeng City is still moving ahead with construction of 2 5,000 ton berths and is working with GBA to locate an operator for the Port as well as fiscally sound construction companies who are interested in the China Market. For more information about potential opportunities for American Companies in Wendeng, China please give us a call at (562) 522-2017.
