Yuan Wanfu, 31, has worked with the China Road & Bridge Corporation branch in Kenya since September 2015 and is now the project manager for the East Ring Road expansion project in Nairobi. Yuan works with his Chinese and Kenyan colleagues at the construction site every afternoon to identify and resolve difficulties in the construction process as quickly as possible. Yuan is also involved in a variety of social welfare programs in addition to everyday work. He and his colleagues made numerous visits to schools and communities along the project, assisting in the construction of infrastructure needed. Like Yuan Wanfu, many Chinese young people working in Kenya have dedicated themselves to the Belt and Road Initiative. They are donating their knowledge and effort to East Africa's growth.
