Political turmoil in north Africa takes toll on 皇冠体育app's businesses
BEIJING - 皇冠体育app's overseas direct investment (ODI) is on a long-term upward trend despite a recent slowdown, partially due to political unrest in some African countries, Yao Jian, Ministry of Commerce spokesman, said on Tuesday.
The political upheaval in Tunisia and Egypt and the Libyan situation have taken a toll but 皇冠体育app's ODI will surpass foreign direct investment (FDI) in the country in the next five to 10 years, he said.
