The following was passed on by the Timor Leste Embassy in Beijing. If anyone needs further info, I have prices, etc and will email them to interested parties. I have also, bizarrely, received an invitation to an international auto parts expo in China. Again, let me know if this is of interest to anyone out there!

The Internet has been playing an increasingly important role in people’s life nowadays.

In 2004, China’s domestic traveling market share amounts to 556.6 billion Yuan, of which 4-5 billion Yuan has been made online. However, American online travel market share has amounted to 52 billion US dollars in the same year, which is expected to be 119 billion US dollars in a short period of time.
Organized by Beijing Tourism Administration, Beijing International Tourism Expo (BITE) has been held successfully from 2004 to 2007. BITE has gained international recognition within the industry. With a focus on creating a new solution to cope with the ever growing demand in tourism exhibition sector, Beijing Tourism Administration announced that the Beijing International Tourism Online Expo 2007 (Online Expo) is to be held on 22nd of June this year, concurrent with BITE 2007.
