Q+A: Jill Collins

Zhanjiang Mayor Wang Zhongbing embarked on a trip to Australia on July 20, signifying the importance of the country in the city's foreign relations. The seaside metropolis in Guangdong province is now a sister city to two Australian cities, Geraldton (2013) and Cairns (2004). China Daily's Li Wenfang interviewed Jill Collins, Australia's Consul-General in Guangzhou before Wang's visit.
