Fiji's Prime Minister Sitiveni Rabuka arrived in Beijing on Saturday evening for an official visit to China.
According to the Chinese Foreign Ministry, during the visit, leaders of the two countries will have in-depth exchanges of views on China-Fiji relations and important issues of mutual interest.
Through this visit, China hopes to take the comprehensive strategic partnership featuring mutual respect and common development to a new level and work with Fiji to build an even closer community with a shared future between China and Pacific Island countries, said the ministry.
Located in the South Pacific Ocean and made up of 332 islands, Fiji is the first Pacific Island country to have established diplomatic ties with China.
Last year, trade between the two countries reached around $526 million. China's main exports are machinery and equipment, electrical appliances, electronic products, computers and communication technology, automobiles and ships, and its imports from Fiji include bauxite, frozen fish, logs and sawn timber, and beverages.
Sitiveni Rabuka follows in the footsteps of several other South Pacific leaders to visit China in recent months.
