> > Can you believe it? Africa, which is famous for its messiness, actually has a "pure land". It is not like Nairobi, where there are a group of teenagers who live like "zombies", and it is not like the streets of Zimbabwe, which are full of "cough syrup". Bottle, in this country known as "African Paradise", people don't have to worry about security issues when traveling, and there is no litter on the streets of the capital city, and even the label of "dirty and messy" in Africa has been removed. It is a rising star. Rwanda, why is Rwanda called "African Singapore"? And how did you turn a bad hand into a king blow? Next, let's walk into the African paradise and see it! >

Rwanda is located in the central and eastern part of Africa. Although the area is only as big as Beijing and Tianjin, it has won the title of "African Singapore" after years of hard work, and many people even call it "African Switzerland". Rwanda's GDP growth rate has long been in the forefront of Africa. In 2011, it was also rated as one of the countries with the most tourism potential by the World Economic Forum and the World Bank. From 1994 to 2020, Rwanda's GDP has more than doubled, a total of In a country with a population of more than 12 million, 1 million people have been lifted out of poverty.

In 2019, Rwanda's GDP growth rate was as high as 9.4%, ranking first in the world. In addition, it ranked 38th in the world in the global business environment ranking in 2020, second only to Mauritius and second in Africa. Behind such a bright and beautiful, there is a past like "Purgatory on Earth", let's look down.

Can you imagine it? As a rising star in Africa, Rwanda actually has a tragic past, that is, the Rwanda genocide in 1994. In fact, Rwanda, like other African countries, suffered from a tragic life of colonial rule and resource plunder. During the Belgian colonial rule, Divided Rwanda's national strength, one is the Tutsi living in the mountains to herd for a living.

The other is the Hutu people who are short and live by farming, but because of their noble blood, the seeds of hatred are planted. The long-term civil war has made people in the whole country into a situation of hardship. However, in 1994 In April, the Hutu president suffered an air crash, leading to the outbreak of inter-ethnic massacres. In just three months, about 1 million people fell in a pool of blood, including hundreds of thousands of underage girls. Ruined by the mob, the long-term unrest displaced Rwandans like a purgatory on earth, and finally the Tutsi launched a Jedi counterattack with the help of Uganda.

Not only has the civil war been won, but the leaders at that time have established their own sovereignty. After the abolition of the racial system, everyone's identity is Rwandan, and Rwanda has finally ushered in a stage of peaceful development, so the problem Come on, how did the country that just quelled the civil war blow a bad hand into a king? Let's look down.

Do you know how Rwanda counterattacked? What kind of scene is it when the bad card in the hand is beaten to the top? By the end of the civil war, Rwanda was on the brink of collapse, 40% of the population was mostly children under the age of 14, the adult labor force was almost zero, and economic poverty was compounded by aggravating economic poverty, it was impossible for Rwanda from every point of view Becoming the number one in Africa, as the saying goes, "The speed of the train depends on the headband". Now Rwanda has made the world look up to the world. This is also thanks to Kagame.

The first thing Kagame did was to adopt one-party rule to stabilize the country, and the second thing was to abolish racial divisions and make all citizens unified. This is not only a sad historical lesson for Rwanda, but at the same time. It is also a taboo topic. The third thing is to vigorously promote economic development. Kagame not only supports private enterprises and high-efficiency agricultural development, but also advocates using China as a teacher to learn and develop experience. In this process, Rwanda and China has signed a number of economic agreements.

Especially in the absence of industry, electricity and imperfect infrastructure, the rapid development in recent years is inseparable from the support and help of China. However, Rwanda can make a bad hand of a bad card, and it is still inseparable. The forward-looking leadership and the diligence and wisdom of the people. In fact, every country has a very bitter history and lessons, but the future is the most worth looking forward to. What do you want to say about the development of Rwanda?
