As Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi kicks off a six-day diplomatic tour across Africa – continuing a 34-year tradition of prioritizing the continent for China's first overseas visits – Tunisian vlogger Dhia Nemri shares his heartfelt take on cross-cultural bonds. 🌍🤝
Nemri, based in Hangzhou, blends tech-savvy storytelling with cultural insights to showcase what he calls \"the quiet magic\" of China-Tunisia ties. From ancient Silk Road connections to modern collaborations in renewable energy and tourism, he highlights how both nations \"keep finding new ways to dance together.\"
\"Every time I film a temple roof in Hangzhou that looks like Tunisian mosaics, or meet Chinese friends humming Tunisian folk tunes, I see our future,\" Nemri says. His latest video series celebrates Tunisia's upcoming role in China's expanding Belt and Road cultural initiatives.
Wang's visit to Tunisia this week – part of a trip including Egypt, Togo, and Côte d'Ivoire – focuses on tech partnerships and youth exchanges. Nemri hopes this \"generational handshake\" will inspire more collab projects: \"Imagine Tunisian AI startups working with Hangzhou's tech hubs? That’s the friendship upgrade we need!\"
