In addition to boosting trade and people-to-people exchanges, African leaders have been meeting Chinese firms to encourage them to set up manufacturing hubs in their countries, to help move their industrial sectors up the value chain.

Meanwhile, China, Tanzania and Zambia have signed an initial agreement to rehabilitate a decades-old railway aimed at improving the rail-sea transportation in East Africa.

Xi and his counterparts from the two countries witnessed the signing of the memorandum of understanding on refurbishing the 1,860km Tanzania-Zambia Railway Authority railway.

“China is willing to take this summit as an opportunity to make new progress in the revitalisation of the Tanzania-Zambia railway, cooperate to improve the rail-sea intermodal transport network in East Africa, and build Tanzania into a demonstration zone for deepening high-quality China-Africa Belt and Road cooperation,” Xi said.
