I am trying to click on Sign in link on site alibaba.com

This is my test case:

public class TestCase {

    public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub

        String URL = "http://www.alibaba.com/";
        WebDriver driver;
        System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver",
                "D:\\chromedriver_win32\\chromedriver.exe");
        driver = new ChromeDriver();
        driver.get(URL);
        Thread.sleep(2000);
        SignIn.SignIn_click(driver).click();
    }

}

This is object class where in am locating the web element

package PageObjects;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.ExpectedConditions;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.WebDriverWait;

public class SignIn {


    private static WebElement element = null;

    public static WebElement SignIn_click(WebDriver driver) {
        element = (new WebDriverWait(driver, 10)).until(ExpectedConditions
                .visibilityOfElementLocated(By
                        .xpath("//a[@data-val='ma_signin']")));
        element = driver.findElement(By
                .xpath("//a[@data-val='ma_signin']"));
        return element;

    }

}

But when I run this code , I'm always getting this exception:

Exception in thread "main" org.openqa.selenium.TimeoutException: Expected condition failed: waiting for visibility of element located by By.xpath: //a[@data-val='ma_signin'] (tried for 10 second(s) with 500 MILLISECONDS interval)
