| |
| China’s direct investment in Africa, as reported by the National Bureau of Statistics of China,
amounted to US$392 million in 2005, up from US$317 million in 2004. Data from other
sources show significantly higher figures: in 2004, Chinese FDI was estimated to be more
than US$900 million; total FDI in Africa was US$15 billion (Table 2). China’s Ministry of
Commerce puts China’s direct investment to Africa for 2000–06 at US$6.6 billion. Among
the 800 Chinese enterprises investing in Africa, only about 100 are state-owned. The rest are
private businesses with interests ranging from trade, manufacturing and processing, services,
and communications to agriculture and natural resource development. |
