This article provides a good view of the trend and perspective of China-Africa Business partnership. It is vital to note that Africa can not fold their hand and wait for the traditional donor to realise the investment opportunities that need to be exploited for the benefit of alliviating poverty in Africa.
The speed of China investment into Africa and the reception givent by Africa countries to such investment drive is not at all surprising. The rest of the worl should note that Africa is open for the businesses that are aimed to grow the industrial base of Africa. Linking international aid to industry growth for poverty alleviation must be the focus of any well meaning international donor
The smart entry of Chinese enterprise into Africa and the provision that China is making for Africa industry base to benefit from China experience will be among the issues to be addressed at the International Conference on Industry Growth, Investment and Competitiveness in Africa(IGICA). This will be held on 8-10th June 2009, in Abuja, the capital city of Nigeria. The IGICA Conference and Technology Transfer Fair is histed by the Government of Nigeria.
It is ecpected that various China investors and industry will be exhibiting at the IGICA event.
