Both regions have consolidated a growing and relevant relationship that have brought as a result important development and investment projects in the African countries. Beijing has been implementing a series of policies that have had a deep impact in economic, political and cultural terms, however, some of these policies remain controversial for a number of reasons (related mainly to labor, ecology and human rights).
