             Chinese Admiral Key in China's Promotion of Sea Links

   by William Ide

   China's President last week wrapped up landmark visits to India, Sri
   Lanka and Maldives, part of a broader campaign to promote a new
   'Maritime Silk Road' in Asia. The Chinese government's promotion
   efforts rely heavily on the country's best-known sailor, a 15th century
   eunuch named Zheng He. VOA's Bill Ide reports from the sailor's
   hometown in Yunnan on the effort to promote China's future by recalling
   its past.
