BEGGARS WORLDWIDE
Most beggars you see around the world
have a coffee cup, bucket or a hat to
collect spare change from passers-by.
BEGGARS IN CHINA
Because China is predominantly
cashless, most people don't carry cash.
Even beggars present QR codes.

While Chinese researchers speak English
and have access to the Western-world of

THE BELT AND
ROAD INITIATIVE
PUSHING BEYOND CHINA
China's Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) is a
development strategy that aims to invest in and
develop infrastructure in 152 countries around the
world.

THE INITIATIVE

Unveiled by Xi Jinping, the General Secretary
of the CPC and the current leader of China.
152 COUNTRIES WORLDWIDE
Developments touch countries and
organizations all over the world.
MANY TYPES OF DEVELOPMENTS
Ports, railways, highways, power stations,
aviation and telecommunications etc
INTEREST-FREE FINANCING
In many cases, China is financing the
developments interest free for certain stakes
STRINGS ATTACHED
In most cases, China is seeking political or
economic debt over these countries.

The Belt and Road Initiative will
affect 60% of the world's population.
GLOBAL EFFECTS OF THE BRI

3 Examples of China's Debt Trap
KENYA
China is building railroads in
Kenya in order to access the
Congo and other central
African countries where natural
resources are abundant.
SRI LANKA
Borrowed $7B from China to
develop infrastructure. Couldn't
pay it back. Now forced to sign
a 99 year lease of its most
important port.
SOMALIA
A Chinese bank lent Somalia
$200M to rebuilt the port of
Mogadishu in exchange for
exclusive fishing rights off
their coast.

THE KEY
TAKEAWAYS
