风险当然是有的。但我们可以跟政府建立合作关系,将风险降到最低。同时我注意到,政府近几年免除了很多非洲国家的债务,促进了同非洲国家的关系,为对非投资扫除了障碍。而且政府还搞了很多援非项目,帮他们修建了公路,铁路,发电站,学校,足球场等很多公共设施。连哪个国家的议会大楼都是中国建的。这些足可以看出政府对投资非洲的决心和信心。
Of course there are risks. But if we can establish cooperative relations with the government, future risks will be at their lowest they can be.
