China-Africa Cooperation
China is currently Africa's largest trading partner. Addressing the business community prior to the formal opening of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation, Xi said in a speech that the "China-Africa cooperation is a way to long term prosperity that brings benefits to both our peoples." We use the idiom 同舟共济 which literally means in the same boat to cross the river together; to work together to overcome hardships to describe the China Africa partnership.
