Tourism starts the China-Dominican Republic ball rolling

Santo Domingo.- The Presidency’s Administrative Minister heads meetings to discuss agreements where the country will be declared a tourism destination, streamline processes to export agro products and about Chinese investment in infrastructure projects.

José Ramón Peralta said high-level officials from the Dominican Republic and China have advanced this week on a series of issues and agreements that he affirms will have a positive impact on the Dominican economy, after the two countries formalized diplomatic and trade relations on Mon.
