China linked arms with Zimbabwe through two fresh agreements focused on airport upkeep and transport training. Officials signed deals covering maintenance at Victoria Falls International Airport and technical teamwork between Zimbabwe airport officials and China Jiangsu International. The Chinese company previously upgraded the Victoria Falls facility back in 2016.
Zimbabwe hopes these partnerships will help it gain valuable skills and knowledge from Chinese experts as it expands airport operations across the country. Deputy Transport Minister Joshua Sacco praised the Chinese company for helping modernize transport systems, which he said boosts national industrial growth. He described the agreements as part of a continuing friendship between both nations that started during liberation struggles.
The Chinese delegation included Jiangsu Province Vice Governor Ma Xin, who noted that their company built high-quality airport projects that created positive economic impacts for Zimbabwe. He mentioned that as Zimbabwe works toward becoming an industrial economy, it needs more infrastructure development. Engineering companies from Jiangsu Province want to participate in future construction projects throughout Zimbabwe.
