I think this is a very good move. The more people come to China and actually see what life is like there, the less effective western propaganda becomes.

It's only for a year long period. I thought policies like these would be a lot more permanent.
- I guess it's a trial to see how it works out for now.
  
  That's usually how China does things, so far as I can work out. They'll see what problems arise and then likely roll out an improved version that maybe covers more countries.
5 European countries

Not Poland. Just the imperial favorites.
Great news. Me and my gf are going to China for a few months next march and she has a Malaysian passport. Shane the UK isn't on that list, but I'm not surprised
- she has a Malaysian passport
  
  Will still need a visa. Visaless stay is maximum 15 days according to the linked article.
  
  Yeah. Read it in full now
Making it easier and cheaper to visit China for a short trip is a good idea all around, I have friends from Germany that I am gonna have go with me on a trip because of this for a week to dip their toes and prove to them it's not a hellscape like the msm says it is.
Xi please, I want to come over for tea. Please include my country too.
欢迎来山东玩！我这比北京强多了，北京就一个美食荒漠Welcome to Shandong to play! This is much better than Beijing, which is a gourmet desert.
Schengen Agreement

Beijing Agreement
Too bad Canada decided to tank their relationship with China, it was already expensive and time consuming to get a visa, just gotten worse now. I wanna be on this list
- Canada has no independent policy, it does what US tells it to do.
