The facility is in Addis Abeba, Ethiopia. From Voice of America: "The African Union has inaugurated a new headquarters with tributes to China's rise in Africa, and to the political prisoners who died in the jail that once occupied the site. The new $200 million Chinese-built headquarters was officially opened by China's senior political adviser Jia Qinglin, standing in for Premier Hu Jintao. In a speech to an audience of heads of state and African diplomats in the spectacular 2500-seat Grand Hall, Jia hailed the rapid growth of China-Africa relations. China's trade with African countries reached $150 billion last year, he said, a 13 fold increase in the past decade. Others at the ceremony praised China as the model for Africa's economic growth."
Booker Rising response: The Organization for African Unity (now the African Union) was established to promote African empowerment. An organization that’s supposedly about African upliftment has a $200 million facility built by the Chinese,
using 90% Chinese labor. What’s wrong with this picture?! And I’m sure the Chinese have installed surveillance up in there.
