A Chinese cargo vessel recently docked at the Jeddah Islamic Port carrying 75,000 head of Chinese goats and cows, the first shipment of its kind in two decades. It follows a visit by the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Abdullah to China. The consignment is the first of several heading for the country from both Arab and European countries as part of a government scheme to diversify sources of livestock in the country’s market.
