Merchant Navy War Memorial, Pier Head, Liverppol

[CEC]

There is a memorial to the Chinese Merchant seamen who served and died in two world wars at the Pier Head, Liverpool.
Does anyone know where it is exactly. Thought it might be on the Merchant Navy Memorial, but maybe I missed it.
Information would be greatfully received.

I did'nt know this existed until now, it's quite remarkable how few people know about China's allegiance in the Great War (especially the Chinese) and that they were paraded with the other friendly nations in 1919 at the first memorial at the cenotaph.
Although the photo says it's near to Birkenhead, it's actually across the water at the Pier Head.
