China Africa Industry Docking Can Achieve Win-Win Situation

In the pace of Chinese enterprises going into Africa,

It is one of the most important investment destination countries.

However, the local investment opportunities, investment policies and investment environment are few known to Chinese enterprises. In the recent China Africa industrial development and poverty reduction Cooperation Symposium, Lin Zhiyong, the Chinese economic and commercial representative in Tanzania, spoke for readers to learn about Tanzania.

Tanzania has broad investment prospects in various fields.

Tanzania has long pursued a policy of friendship with China.

Its geographical location is important, pportation is convenient, logistics development potential is huge, Dar Es Salaam port, Tanzania Zambia railway, central railway and the vast number of central, Eastern and southern African landlocked countries.

As the only member of the SADC and the member countries of the East African community, Tanzania has the favorable conditions for further radiation to the surrounding countries. Therefore, investing in the Tanzania market has its strategic significance.

Trade facilitation among the two members of the community is basically free, and they are developing towards uniform tariffs, unified commodity inspection and unified standards.

In addition, Tanzania has reached agreements with the United States and the European Union to open markets. Products produced in Tanzania can be exported to Europe and the United States without tariffs.

Although Tanzania implements foreign exchange control, its policy is relatively loose, and the financial management department has an open attitude towards foreign exchange business. Foreign exchange can be freely convertible under the project, so banks and banks can engage in domestic currency (shilling) and foreign exchange business.

In agriculture, Tanzania is one of the few countries in Africa that can provide food self-sufficiency, and the government attaches great importance to agricultural development.

Agriculture is the most favorable area for attracting foreign investment in Tanzania.

In June 2009, President Kikwete of Tanzania advanced the concept of "agriculture first", raising the agricultural budget to 10% of the budget.

In January 2011, the Tanzania government put forward a blueprint for the development of the southern agriculture corridor.

Almost half of the land is allocated to the corridor to attract foreign capital to invest in agricultural development, planting and agricultural products (14.29, -0.29, -1.99%) processing in Tanzania.

Tanzania has 44 million hectares of arable land, a total area of 33 million 500 thousand hectares of forest and woodland, 64 thousand square kilometers of India ocean territorial waters, 223 thousand square kilometers of India ocean exclusive economic zone waters and 58 thousand square kilometers of fresh water, and the potential of seawater and freshwater fishing is enormous.

Tanzania is rich in fresh water resources.

Unlike many people's impression of barren drought in Africa, Tanzania has more than 70% of the green coverage, not an inch of desert.

And the land in Tanzania is basically fertile fertile land.

Tanzania is rich in mineral resources. The major minerals identified include gold, diamonds, iron, nickel, uranium, phosphate, coal, and more and more famous stones such as tanning Sang Lan and so on. The total number of these jewels is fifth in Africa.

In recent years, Tanzania has discovered natural gas, proven reserves of 54 trillion cubic feet, and its total reserves are expected to reach at least 200 trillion cubic feet. It is expected to gradually form the natural gas industry chain and to inject vitality into Tanzania's mid and long term economic development.

Tanzania's unique tourist resources include not only the beautiful scenery of Tanganyika lake, Vitoria lake, the lake of majaara and Malawi National Park, but also the magnificent natural wonders of Kilimanjaro, crater natural zoo and other famous wildlife parks, such as Serengeti National Park and the rice zoo.

In addition, Tanzania has a large number of labor force.

About 80% of Tanzania's population is an agricultural population, and the population under 35 is above 70%.

The labor force is younger and the demand for employment is high.

Tanzania welcomes Chinese investment

The Tanzania government welcomes and is open to foreign investment.

Its investment area is almost unlimited.

At the same time, the government has been committed to improving the investment environment, enhancing cooperation, promoting development and promoting prosperity.

The Tanzania investment center and the Export Processing Zone Management Committee are committed to providing excellent services to foreign investors.

The government of Tanzania has divided its investment areas into the most preferential areas and priority areas.

The best areas include agriculture and agriculture based industries, mining, oil and natural gas, tourism, infrastructure, pportation, aviation, communications, finance and insurance services.

The areas of priority investment include energy, chemical industry, manufacturing, textile and leather production, natural resource development, fisheries, forestry, human resources, construction, real estate development, management consulting, television broadcasting and export oriented projects.

There is basically no saturation problem in investing in Tanzania.

In recent years, China's investment in Tanzania has increased rapidly. A large number of major projects will be launched in the next few years to promote bilateral economic and trade relations between China and Tanzania.

Several major projects worth mentioning include the Bagamoyo Special Economic Zone project invested by the Chinese enterprises, the Tanzania railway maintenance and pformation project, the natural gas pmission pipeline project, the coal and iron and electricity integration project, the natural gas power generation project, the pmission and pformation project, the multiple comprehensive industrial parks and the real estate development projects.

These projects cost more than 500 million US dollars, or even tens of billions of dollars.

The investment of Chinese enterprises in Tanzania also includes agriculture, slaughtering and processing, logistics, mining, trade, real estate development, financial cooperation and so on.

China Africa industry docking can achieve win-win situation

China's development experience tells us that the economy needs to develop rapidly, and the people want to get rid of poverty quickly and become rich, and the agriculture is important, but it is the key to realize industrialization as soon as possible.

China's industrial pfer is to pfer a large number of domestic surplus capacity to African countries, including Tanzania.

China's industrialization is very suitable for Africa's national conditions and is suitable for Africa's needs.

Chinese enterprises invest mostly in labor-intensive projects, which will greatly solve local employment, improve the lives of local people, and help employees achieve a happy life in which "one skill is in the body and one is out of poverty".

At the same time, the Chinese Embassy in Tanzania has been actively promoting enterprises to undertake corporate social responsibility and carry out various forms of feedback to local social activities.

In March 2013, when President Xi Jinping visited Tanzania, under the testimony of the two heads of state, the two countries formally signed the Sino Tan investment protection agreement and came into effect in March 18, 2014.

In the same period, we also signed Tanzania leaf export inspection agreement.

At present, the two countries are actively promoting the avoidance of double taxation agreement and the signing of the agreement on quality inspection of agricultural and animal products.

China hopes to increase investment and scale to help Tanzania achieve the grand blueprint for becoming a medium-sized developing country in 2025, and to accumulate experience for the next step to comprehensively promote Sino African industrial cooperation.

China's industrial pfer strategy is to give full play to its development advantages over more than 30 years, and combine the needs of Africa to pfer a large number of surplus Industries in China, invest in Africa, achieve industrial docking, and help African countries such as Tanzania to build nests and attract Phoenix to drive their economic development.

Tanzania lacks funds, lacks infrastructure, lacks talent, and lacks market.

However, what Tanzania lacks is the advantage China has.

China Africa Development Fund provides financial support for enterprises.

China is the largest consumer market in the world.

Sisal sisal,

Cashew nuts, cassava, flowers, cloves, fruits, honey, slaughtering and processing all have good investment prospects.

Through large-scale land development, mechanized farming, good field management and seedling technology, Tanzania agriculture can make a great contribution.

The gap in Tanzania's industry has created its thirst for investment.

To lock your interest in investment and develop investment advantages, there is bound to be great potential in Tanzania.
