Over 20 years the @CityofMelbourne Tianjin office led by Dr Wei Chaoyi has facilitated 100s of business, civic & cultural links. People on the ground, and RMIT’s gov leadership program are foundations of unique Melb approach to partnerships with China. #MelbMission @BenRimmer2010
In China @CityofMelbourne marked a 38-year partnership with #Tianjin and signed a tourism MoU. They're working together on tourism promotion and social media. And they’re helping us to get Melbourne ready for more growth in Chinese tourism. #MelbMission @BenRimmer2010
Melbourne health startups demonstrated to @osaka_univ_e Medical School and @OIH_Osaka that @CityofMelbourne is rich in med tech, innovation and IP. Some highlights: music to reduce anxiety; safe anaesthesia; smart task management for hospitals #MelbMission. Thanks @nycdownunder
In Osaka @cityofmelbourne and Osaka City Council signed a sister street agreement between Swanston Street and Midosuji Street, the main street of central Osaka and cemented their 40-year sister city relationship at a celebration dinner at Osaka Castle #MelbMission @BenRimmer2010

China’s airspace is getting crowded with commercial flights, emergency flights and small aircraft.
So they’re changing things. Melbourne’s Tech Resources is advising them on opening up ‘low altitude airspace’ to general aviation and emergency services. #MelbMission.
Moorabbin is the premier flight training airport in Australia, working with @Swinburne @ChinaEastern and others.
