In 2013, Chinese President Xi Jinping put forward the "Belt and Road Initiative" (BRI), aiming at building a new platform for international cooperation and creating new momentum for shared development. Since then, the BRI has opened a path for high-quality development and common prosperity for countries along the route, becoming a real global platform serving over half of the world's population.
To date, nearly 40 African countries have signed memorandum of understanding to join the initiative, and BRI has aided the continent in breaking through developmental bottlenecks and boosted industrial and supply chain integration and upgrade.
The development of the Eastern Industry Zone in Dukem, Ethiopia, especially in recent decade, since it was founded in 2008, is the living example of how the initiative has symphonized with Africa's development over the past decade.

Ethiopia's economy is mainly based on agriculture and animal husbandry, with related products accounting for more than 90 percent of total export value, while its industrial base is relatively weak, and industrial products are mostly sourced from overseas, a statement that the Eastern Industry Zone sent to the Global Times explained.
The establishment of the industrial park has brought unprecedented development momentum to the local manufacturing industry.
At present, 124 enterprises have settled in the industry zone, mainly linked to textile and clothing, building materials, daily necessities and other manufacturing fields, which industry insiders said modeling the transformation from made-in-China to made-in-Africa with China's support.
Up to now, the total output value of the park has reached the significant milestone of $1.7 billion, with the total amount of taxes and fees paid to the host country amounting to $150 million.
Moreover, the development of the industrial park has greatly boosted local employment. The Eastern Industry Zone alone currently provides about 20,000 direct jobs, and more than 50,000 people have been trained through employment. "
