Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley’s trip to Asia will cost taxpayers more than $80,000, but officials hope the economic-development mission will bring far greater benefits to the state.
Mr. O'Malley, a Democrat, is one of 68 state officials, educators and business leaders who departed Tuesday for a 10-day tour of China, South Korea and Vietnam to encourage trade and business opportunities in Maryland.
