I’m building a space to tell real China–Africa stories — not just headlines, but human stories, culture, and the partnerships shaping tomorrow’s world.
If you believe in constructive narratives and people-to-people connections…
Follow along. This is just the beginning.

France v Senegal is the World Cup’s only group-stage match where both countries surround OTHER sovereign countries that open to the sea*.
France wraps around Monaco, and Senegal wraps The Gambia. (Monaco and Gambia are 2 of the only 3 such surrounded countries in the world.**)
Stay tuned for more cutting-edge, geography-based World Cup analysis.
* Also known as a semi-enclave: a territory that is completely surrounded by another country's land borders, except for one section that borders an open body of water.
** The only other semi-enclave in the world is Brunei, which is surrounded by Malaysia.

In my lifetime, China lifted 850 million people out of poverty, while the US created one trillionaire. It is clear as day that socialism is the key to our future.
