China in Africa
China, the “world’s factory”, has started to move the factory floor off shore. Driven by a growing need for raw materials, an increasing consumer base and a desire to invest profits made over the last decade, the Chinese Government, as well as private Chinese companies, are looking to invest outside of China.
