The electricity supply coverage extends to 22 provincial-level regions across China. Photo by Xu Hongyan/Xinhua/ABACAPRESS.COM

Lekki Port And The Lekki Free Trade Zone - Nigeria

Containers are being loaded onto a truck at the Lekki Port in Lagos, Nigeria, on Nov. 30, 2024. The Lekki Port and the Lekki Free Trade Zone are both located in the Lekki Peninsula of Lagos, Nigeria's largest city. The Lekki Port, a commercial cooperation project constructed by China Harbour Engineering Company Ltd., stands as Nigeria's first deep seaport and one of the largest of its kind in West Africa. The port began commercial operations in April 2023, with a designed capacity to handle 1.2 million standard containers annually. The Lekki Free Trade Zone, developed and operated by China Railway Construction Corporation, spans 30 square kilometers. The duo of port and free trade zone gave birth to a synergistic development model, which significantly shortens cargo transport time, boosts Nigeria's foreign trade, and injects new momentum into the local economy.

Archeologists And Workers Restore Great Wall - China

An aerial drone photo taken on April 30, 2024 shows workers working at an archaelogical site of a watch tower of the Jiankou section of the Great Wall in Beijing, capital of China. Forty years ago, a campaign to protect the Great Wall with the help of social funds was launched in Beijing. Today, social forces still play a crucial role in the Great Wall protection and restoration. An ongoing restoration project of the Jiankou section of the Great Wall adopts a "simultaneous archaeology and restoration" approach, where archaeological work is completed on a section before restoration begins. The restoration project, with the participation of research institutions, universities and social organizations engaged in non-profit activities, is scheduled to be completed in 2026.
