China�s dream inspires the African dream

On the African continent, the Chinese Dream mantra has since inspired the African dream, especially given the fact that in the last five years, China’s gross domestic product rose from 54 trillion to 80 trillion yuan –about 12.1 trillion USD. In that time frame, the country also lifted 60 million people out poverty.

 Salah Hammad, a Senior Human Rights Expert with the African Union’s Department of Political Affairs was quick to say that the Chinese experience must inspire the African people to do more in order to achieve the goal of a peaceful, prosperous and united continent.
