whether voa applicable to travel china with official passport?

Question

I am Sri lankan, working at Ministry of Sports in Sri Lanka as Chief Accountant. I hope to travel China for Official duty from 20th August to 26th August 2013.( It is for Nanjing, Closing Ceremony of 2nd Asian Youth Games)  I have an Official Passport. When I apply, Your embassy official told that visa is not required to me as I have a Official Passport and VOA will be given on my arrival in Shanghai. So, I want to get it confirmed, Whether I will be allowed to travel China By Sri Lankan Immigration and China Officials at Shanghai. I have a cofirmation letter of Invitation issued from Nanging Youth Olimpic Games Organising Committee. Your early response is highly appreciated.

Official passport is different from ordinary passport. I think you won't have any problem if the Chinese embassy official confirms that you can get VOA when you land in PRC. The embassy officials know clearly about the Entry and Exit Law.
