Zimbabwe welcomes China's support for "digital Africa"

Zimbabwe was among the African countries that attended a recent forum in Beijing on digital cooperation with China. China pledged to help build a "digital Africa" with support in areas such as sea and land cables, data centers, 5G/6G technology, and quantum communication. Two participants at the forum, Zimbabwean Deputy Minister of Information Communication and Technology Dingumuzi Phuti, and analyst Chen Huiyi at Development Reimagined, discuss the initiative and its potential to strengthen partnerships in digital policy, infrastructure, and more.
