Biography
Kapitan Cina Li Dan (Chinese: 李旦; Christian name: Andrea Dittis; died 1625) was a Chinese merchant. He was an early prominent 17th century Chinese merchant and political figure, originally from Quanzhou in Fujian province.
Li operated out of Manila for a time before moving to Hirado, in Japan and becoming a part of the shuinsen trade, with a formal vermillion seal license from the Tokugawa shogunate. He served as Kapitan Cina or head of the Chinese community in Hirado, and maintained a residence in the English sector of the city.
Following his death, Li Dan's business was inherited by Zheng Zhilong, along with his role in the community.
