[quote=MARRIE,297242]Roger Dow, president of the U.S. Travel Industry Association (TIA), said the organization will continue to focus on China "since it is a high growing market" with about 6 percent of total population traveling abroad every year.

Under the Memorandum, the American Tours International (ATI), a company that represents U.S. states tourism industries abroad, is to open its office in China on Aug. 1.

Noel Irwin Hentschel, the ATI CEO, said her Beijing office would provide training program and product design assistance to Chinese tourism operators.

For the Chinese part, Shao Qiwei, chairman of the China National Tourism Administration who led the inaugural groups of Chinese travelers, said the program of Chinese leisure groups to the U.S. is being carried out in a orderly and gradual manner.

He said the program would be expanded to all over China after the pilot project in nine provinces and three municipalities yielded positive results.

Xu Deming, president of Guangdong China Travel Service Co., said he hoped that the speedy and convenient visa application and approval procedure the inaugural groups enjoyed will remain.
