BEIJING (BRNN): The 2024 Summit of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (FOCAC) will be held in Beijing from Sept. 4 to 6.
The China-Africa friendship and partnership has been built up through various channels, with infrastructure and job creation standing at the forefront. Earlier this month, Tang Wenhong, China’s assistant minister of commerce, explained that Chinese companies have created 1.1 million jobs for African locals in the past three years.
Chinese contractors have completed dozens of landmark projects, as well as “small but beautiful” projects, in the fields of transportation, energy, electricity, and housing. Together, these projects have gone a long way in improving the people’s livelihoods.
For instance, China Communication Construction Company (CCCC) and its subsidiaries have completed multiple projects in the areas of transportation and hydroelectricity. These projects have positively impacted local lives.
Let’s explore some of the China-Africa infrastructure projects.
