文摘INSPIRED by the Belt and Road Initiative,China's four-year-old blueprint for multinational trade and economic development, the China Trade Week (CTW), is making its mark in Africa. Besides dispelling the misconception that Chinese manufacturers produce only cheap and low-quality items, the event is also a platform to introduce companies from different provinces in China.
