The Chinese Embassy in Myanmar arranged a visit by a delegation of 19 Burmese-Chinese teenagers to Xiamen, Fujian province, from Nov 10 to 12.
Most of the Burmese-Chinese teenagers' ancestral homes are in Fujian.
The teenagers visited the headquarters of Xtep, a renowned sportswear company in China, and Gulangyu, a small island off the Xiamen's coast that is a UNESCO World Heritage site.
They were impressed by Xiamen's sound business climate and beautiful scenery.
China has decided to extend its visa waiver policy to ordinary passport holders from Canada and the United Kingdom starting from Feb 17.
Forty-one new port-of-entry duty-free shops have been established nationwide, with Xiamen Xiang'an International Airport, Xiamen Wutong Passenger Wharf, and Xiamen International Cruise Center included on the list.
