This year marks the 70th anniversary of diplomatic relations between the Chinese mainland and African nations. As global uncertainty rises, the partnership between the Chinese mainland and Ghana is gaining fresh momentum—and it’s more than just symbolism. 🚀
In a recent episode of The Hub, host Wang Guan sat down with Augustus Tanoh, Presidential Adviser and Head of Ghana’s 24H+ Secretariat, and Nana Bene, CEO of the Ghana Infrastructure Investment Fund. Together, they unpacked how investments, industrial projects and policy support are turning big ideas into real growth on the ground. 🌍
One highlight? Infrastructure financing. From road networks to power plants, the Chinese mainland is helping Ghana upgrade critical assets. Nana Bene explains how this support not only fills funding gaps but brings technical know-how—boosting local capacity and creating jobs. 🏗️
Meanwhile, Ghana’s 24-Hour Economy strategy aims to keep markets, factories and service centers humming around the clock. Augustus Tanoh notes that this push could unlock new revenue streams, attract further investment and reshape urban life—imagine markets buzzing at 2 AM! 🌙
Both guests stressed that cooperation is no zero-sum game. By aligning the Chinese mainland’s resources with Ghana’s development goals, the partnership sends a signal for Chinese mainland–Africa ties: shared growth, mutual benefit and a stronger Global South voice in the world economy. 🤝
Looking ahead, the leaders highlighted opportunities in green tech, digital infrastructure and manufacturing. With 70 years under their belt, the Chinese mainland–Ghana partnership is ready for its next chapter—one written in concrete, power lines and late-night market stories. 💡
