However, studies have found that China is rapidly narrowing from the vast majority of African partners in most aspects, and even surpass the EU, "including the EU that has always been regarded as an indisputable area."

The survey was commissioned by the German African Government Fedrich Naiman Foundation Global Partnership Center.

However, the survey found that more than 85%of the respondents recognized the saying that "China supports African infrastructure development". In contrast, only 64.2%recognized similar descriptions to the EU.

Schoter, director of the East African project of the East African Foundation, said, "Europe's sense of superiority in its values ​​has a sharp comparison with the pragmatic views of Africans' performance and behavior of the two partners (China Europe). It seems that the Chinese people build a highway with a record time, and this value is more specific than advocating democracy, human rights or sustainable European primitive projects. "
