Kenya's French nuclear assistance, China's FDI flight explanation [Business Africa]
Unreliable and expensive power supply has been a deterrent factor for businesses in East Africa’s biggest economy, Kenya.

China foreign investment
The country’s commerce minister says reports of foreign investment leaving the country are “biased,” and the recent suspension of coal imports from North Korea are simply part of China fulfilling its “international obligations”.
China also relies on African markets for a steady flow of natural resources to sustain its manufacturing sector.
