Zambia's Relationship With China

World Business Report

Available for over a year

We continue our special coverage on the economy of Zambia. The BBC's Will Bain in Lusaka meets opposition leader Hakainde Hichilema to hear how he would tackle the country's economic challenges, and also speaks with Antonio Mwanza, deputy director for media of the ruling Patriotic Front. We have a report examining the role that China plays in updating Zambia's infrastructure. Plus we hear how two female boxing champions are inspiring girls and boys alike. Cary Leahey from Decision Economics gives us a markets update from Wall Street. (Picture: A Lusaka street scene. Picture credit: Getty Images.)
