A new online dating site has been launched in Shanghai, China. The site, yuanlaishini88.com, which caters for both Chinese and English-speaking hopefuls, aims to attract the professional 25+ market from China and abroad.

Social network and dating sites are particularly popular in China, so there is good potential for yuanlaishini88.
