Editor's Note: What could best epitomize the enduring solidarity of the developing world and Chinese support for African independence and development? The Tazara Railway, linking Dar es Salaam in Tanzania with Kapiri Mposhi in Zambia, immediately springs to mind. Five decades on, the friendship between China and Zambia withstands the test of time. In this edition of Leaders Talk, CMG's Li Tongtong sat down with Zambian President Hakainde Hichilema during his six-day state visit to China. From Shenzhen's high-octane development in southern China to the Jinggangshan Red Army Base in Jiangxi Province, from Fu'an in Fujian Province where China's poverty alleviation efforts have brought substantive results, to Beijing, where he met with President Xi Jinping, Hichilema put together what he calls "the pieces of the puzzle." During his visit, China-Zambia relations have been upgraded to a comprehensive strategic cooperative partnership to boost his country's development and kick-start a much-needed industrialization process. Hichilema pins hope on President Xi's three global initiatives and China's Belt and Road Initiative and says that China-Africa cooperation has given the African continent a bigger say in international affairs.
