Last September, Dr. John Fong visited BHI and negotiated about exchange students program and Short-term Study Tour Program with Dr. Gao Songtao, the president of Beijing Hospitality Institute. Finally they signed a cooperation and communication agreement. This time, Dr. John Fong brought detailed information and promotional materials of the exchange program in the United States.

In talks, he expressed his strong intention to cooperate with Dr. Gao Songtao.
