The Prime Minister’s visit to China this month will mark 30 years of relations between our two countries while reaffirming Malaysia’s status as China’s oldest and closest friend in the region. JOCELINE TAN reports. 

WHEN he arrives in Beijing on May 27, Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi will be greeted by rather familiar faces even though this official visit to the People’s Republic of China is his first as Prime Minister.
