The chief minister has been reflecting on an important event in the development and expansion of the Isle of Man Ship Registry.
Tony Brown recently returned from China, where he led a party on a trip which saw singing star Samantha Barks perform the naming ceremony for a Manx registered vessel at a shipyard near Shanghai.
The ship is called the 'Caly Manx' and was built at a cost of £22 million.
Mr Brown hopes the association will signal the start of a fruitful relationship:
Manx matchmaker supporting people 'frustrated' with online dating
"People in their 70s and 80s are still very sexually active"
Toilet changes at QEII 'well received'
DESC says changes were made to increase comfort and reduce vandalism
Date confirmed for funeral of Sam Naughton
Isle of Man rider died following incident at this year's Manx Grand Prix
Buddy has first of two 'much-needed' surgeries
ManxSPCA thanks public 'for helping make this possible'
