Background 背景 South Africa and China have promoted technology innovation and research with capacity building via international co-operations since the collaboration agreement between two countries was signed in 1999; The series of the Conferences with the Forums had been held in South Africa with a full record since 2000. More than 750 delegates from South Africa, Africa and China attended the above events. In 2012, South African government announced the National Development Plan 2030. The Forum of China and Africa Co-operation (FOCAC) between AU and China was held in Beijing, China. The Beijing Action Plan of 2012-2015 was published during the FOCAC. In 2013, African Union worked out Africa Development Agenda 2063. It promoted African unity, prosperity and peace.
