March 24 Shanghai - China's new President Xi Jinping arrived in Dar es Salaam on the 24th, the capital city of Tanzania, this is the second stop of Xi's first official visit since he was elected to be the President of the People's Republic of China. This visit underscores the importance that China attaches to the relationship between China and Tanzania.
Tanzania has vast mineral deposits, timber, natural gas and oil and other natural resources and would greatly benefit from a partnership with China to access and transform these resources to useful and sustainable use for future generations. In return, Tanzania receives financial aid from China, for industrial and infrastructure development purposes. Compared with Western countries, China requires relatively less additional conditions for collaboration. Apart from Tanzania, President Xi's Africa trip will also cover South Africa and the Republic of Congo. Analysts believe that this is a journey of "friendship and heritage", expansion of China-Africa cooperation, and providing guidance for future development.
