1. (SBU) SUMMARY: As part of a Virtual Presence Post (VPP) outreach 
trip, Ambassador Huntsman traveled to Jinan, capital of China's 
Shandong Province, to open the Shandong American Week, donate books 
to the Shandong University law library, draw attention to an 
exhibition celebrating 30 years of U.S.-China relations, and meet 
with local officials.  In a November 23 meeting with the Ambassador, 
Shandong Province Governor Jiang Daming and Shandong University 
President Xu Xianming expressed interest in strengthening 
cooperation between Shandong and the United States.  On the margins 
of the Shandong American Week, the Foreign Commercial Service (FCS) 
organized an Energy Efficiency Workshop regarding U.S. companies' 
involvement in Shandong energy projects. 
END SUMMARY. 
 
2. (U) During the November 23-25 trip, VPP Shandong officers, as 
well as Minister Counselor for Public Affairs Tom Skipper and 
Minister Counselor for Commerce Bill Zarit, traveled to Jinan to 
meet with Shandong Provincial officials, business leaders, and 
Chinese college students.  The program improved the U.S. Embassy's 
working relationship with the Shandong Foreign Affairs Office (FAO), 
helped make inroads for future visits, and received widespread, 
favorable press coverage. 
 
------------------------ 
Ambassador Meets Shandong Governor Jiang Daming 
------------------------ 
 
3. (SBU) Governor Jiang briefed the Ambassador on the state of the 
Shandong economy, congratulated the U.S. Embassy on a successful 
Presidential visit, and expressed interest in following up on the 
current momentum of bilateral relations.  Ambassador Huntsman agreed 
that the U.S.-Shandong relationship should be taken to the next 
level, and pledged to engage embassy staff to further the Governor's 
suggested measures for cooperation.  Jiang noted that Shandong 
Province was China's second largest in terms of population and GDP, 
with 94 million residents and a GDP of 3.1 trillion RMB.  Jiang also 
observed that major provincial economic problems of overcapacity and 
trade imbalances would not go away immediately, but that Shandong's 
four main strengths would help it succeed, including: 1) a rich 
coastal area, including ports and thousands of kilometers of 
non-disputed area; 2) a fertile Yellow River delta, an 
underdeveloped region with potential; 3) new strategic industries, 
such as solar and nuclear energy, pharmaceuticals and biotechnology; 
and 4) new information technology developments, such as third 
generation mobile phone networks and sensor equipment industries. 
 
4. (SBU) Governor Jiang offered three suggestions for how the United 
States and Shandong might forge a continued relationship.  First, 
Jiang suggested establishing a long-term cooperation mechanism to 
communicate between the U.S. Embassy and Shandong officials on 
issues of mutual interest.  Second, he suggested that green industry 
and new energy should constitute the logical starting point.  Since 
combating climate change and environmental protection were issues of 
common concern, U.S.-Shandong cooperation could focus on related 
projects, such as using U.S. Westinghouse technology in a new 
Shandong nuclear plant.  Third, Jiang proposed further cooperation 
through cultural and educational exchanges.  Citing the 2560 year 
history since Confucius and the Obama administration initiative to 
bring 100,000 students to China, Jiang expressed interest in 
expanding student exchanges.

Shandong University Welcomes More Americans 
------------------------ 
 
5. (SBU) Shandong University President Xu Xianming described to the 
Ambassador the cultural and economic significance of Shandong 
Province and the University.  Ambassador Huntsman responded by 
stressing the need for the Embassy to build stronger ties with 
Shandong by expanding people-to-people exchange programs.  Xu 
concurred, expressing regret that despite exchange programs and ties 
with several universities in the United States, less than 20 of the 
1200 foreign exchange students at Shandong University were American. 
 Xu also expressed interest in establishing a joint Confucius 
research center at a leading university, such as the University of 
Pennsylvania, and in setting up a formalized exchange program for 
professors from Shandong University. 
 
------------------------ 
Energy Efficiency Workshop Opens Doors for Business 
------------------------ 
 
6. (SBU) On November 24, six U.S. companies met with nearly 90 
Shandong companies through the FCS-organized Energy Efficiency 
Workshop.  U.S. company representatives expressed optimism about the 
possibility of significant commercial deals in Shandong and 
appreciation the Ambassador's participation, which raised the 
profile of the event and provided them access to key provincial 
leaders.  FCS Minister Counselor Bill Zarit opened the conference by 
 
BEIJING 00003306  002 OF 002 
 
 
stressing the benefits of U.S.-China business cooperation and trade, 
especially in the clean energy field. 
 
------------------------ 
Media Responds Positively 
------------------------ 
 
7. (SBU) Over 40 local and national media covered the Shandong 
American Week opening ceremony, and over 150 articles were published 
on related events.  The Ambassador gave a series of one-on-one 
interviews to Da Zhong Ribao, Shandong TV, and Qilu Evening News, 
and Xinhua, China News Service, Jinan Times, Shandong Business News 
and China Daily online all published original stories.  Sohu.com, 
QQ.com, and other national and regional web portals posted stories 
about the week's events.  The trip also generated over 800 hits on 
the Embassy's VPP Shandong Chinese-language blog 
(http://teamshandong.qzone.qq.com) hosted on one of China's major 
Internet portals.
