Sierra Leonean President Julius Maada Bio kicked off his China visit this week, sparking conversations about the two nations’ growing friendship. 🇸🇱🤝🇨🇳 CGTN hit the streets of Sierra Leone to ask locals about their views on Beijing’s role in their country – and the responses were straight fire. 🔥
One resident shouted out China for supercharging infrastructure projects: “They’ve done a lot to build roads and bridges here – it’s changed how we move and work.” 🚧 Another added, “I’d totally visit China if I could! Their tech, culture, and food seem next-level.” 🥢📱
President Bio’s trip – his first state visit to China since 2018 – includes meetings with Chinese President Xi Jinping to discuss collaborations that could reshape everything from trade to tech. Think Avengers-level team-ups, but for real-world progress. 💼🌐
With Sierra Leone eyeing China’s development playbook, this partnership might just be the blueprint for how nations can collab in 2024. Stay tuned! 🛠️
