Industrialization is the key foundation of modernization and the only way for a country's economic development. There are abundant natural resources and population advantages in Africa though, most countries in Africa are in the early stage of industrial development. After 40 years of reform and development, China has rich experiences in industrial development, acquiring technology, capital and talent advantages. China-Africa capacity cooperation meets the practical needs of African development and has a strong foundation for cooperation.
