CN Looks to Improve its Asian Business Prospects

Bob Lee, an elder in Western Canada's highly sucessful Chinese business community, has begun working with Canadian National Rail in an attempt to increase its business ties with Asia. CN hopes to be able to direct more of the flood of Chinese goods shipped across the Pacific to ports where it has operations, and then use it's transport and logistics expertise to move the goods to the US or other parts of Canada. Lee offers decades worth of guanxi (關係) to help CN reach its goals.
