is still growing, not even the financial crisis, nor the coven 19 pandemic have put a stop to it. john has been increasing its global influence. indeed, with investment in developing countries, africa has been a key battleground for that. so let's speak to jeremy gaines who is a business development consultancies based in the niger and capital, a boucher, thanks for joining us on t u. business. how would you describe china is influence on the way people do business in africa? i think the influence is predicated by the fact that it's been a win win seemingly china. so it's got a lot of construction contract. i think in 2019 it was something like 46000000000 in algeria, nigeria t t o kim manley, africa who's got infrastructure much needed. but in all of that,

and despite total loan commitments of i think, $150000000000.00 model that same year there seems to be a lack of transparency in many loans. the contract involved. and that impact heavily on other players trying to come into the market, assuming they will because it means that up against projects where they may not be public 10. where the bank ability projects in question may be debatable and what things like contract premises on to know that general lack of transparency illustrated by railway project nigeria, the, the labels, the relationship between africa and china such now that african nations actively seeking out chinese investment. they have paid but so the stock to be moved back against that population

the non government project, primarily because that gets away from the areas where they will be lack of transparency. if the west is prepared to try and go that they can of course, become a major player in africa today. they'd like to do one term again. thank you so much for joining us on to to be business. thank. now the you has just introduced a new digital vaccine passport with the name of making travel within the block. easier. the pass takes the form of the queue archives that can be printed out or shown on an app that apples and hotels. it'll be given out free to travelers who have been fully vaccinated with a jap, approved by european regulators. passport is supposed to provide a much needed boost, but tourism businesses. let's get more on that from the financial correspondent, actually conduct the vaccine passport is meant to simplify travel, but airline and airport groups have one that it could actually lead to kiosk and

longer use at airports. if the member countries do not coordinate its rule out efficiently, they've also called and taught it is to ensure that passenger are processed before they arrive at the airport to see some time. but even if the roll out bad happens smoothly is not going to lead to any major search in tourism. that's because not many people have been fully vaccinated. just the 3rd of their does in the open union have been fully vaccinated as of now. then there are also concerns around the data there in that is going to hold back to list. but it's not all human doom. tourists are going to travel this summer and is not going to be wash out to your like the way the saw in 2020. i still found that celebrity investment in crypto currencies have raised their profile and helped send prices. soaring tech likings must come to this jack dorsey are among those. in fact, the likes of bitcoin,
