Xi gets a double welcome on Fiji trip

Improved ties key to success of the island's Look North policy, PM says

President Xi Jinping, the first Chinese head of state to visit Fiji, received two welcomes on Friday - one when he arrived at the airport, and a traditional one later.

The hospitality reinforced what Fijian President Epeli Nailatikau said, that improving Sino-Fiji relation is a cornerstone of his country's Look North policy.
