There's a site called dohop.com, where you can enter two airports, and get a listing of the flights.

note 1: I randomly selected a date of 06/08/07. A different date might have different flights/schedules.

note 2: It looks like China Southern Airlines might (??) be the best bet to Yiwu, but their connections from Manila on 06/08/07 are terrible.

note 3: China Souhern's website looks like it's in English. maybe

here's dohop for Manila to Yiwu on 06/08/07.

I would suggest that you fly to Shanghai instead, then take airport shuttle no.7 to Shanghai South long-distance bus station then a bus to Yiwu (5 hours). This's the most direct route.

I can only assume you don't mean the YiWu in XinJiang.

The quickest way from Shanghai to Yiwu is that Take the train D685 at the Shanghai South Railway Station, departure from 7:25 and get to Yiwu at 09:40,it takes only about 2hr.

However, I think it's pretty hard for a traveller coming from Manila on any flight to be able to catch a train at 0725! Assuming that you don't want to come a day beforehand and stay a night in Shanghai.

How about I take a flight going to Xiamen Gaoqi? And I arrive there around 4:30PM? Will there be trains or buses I can catch going to Yiwu? Or have I just made my life hell? :-)

In that case, get on the airport shuttle to town and take a train to Yiwu that night. However I bet you won't be able to get sleeper tickets at such short notice.
K198/K199 (2214--1800) 19h46min
Still much easier to go via Shanghai or Hangzhou.
