The Hall as Hard Asset: China’s Conference Centres and the Business Climate
A refurbished hall in Yaounde looks like a gift. Read as infrastructure, China’s conference-centre diplomacy is a quieter bet on Africa’s business environment.
E-commerce imports
World trade proved resilient, but the data warns digital sellers: a click is easy, the cross-border logistics behind it are not. For Botswana e-commerce, the parcel is the weak link.

A Roof Counted Twice: China’s Africa Housing, Seen From the Household
Social housing rarely makes the China-Africa ledger. In Djibouti two parallel schemes show what the household-facing side of infrastructure actually delivers – and what it leaves uncounted.
Food-basket pressure
