Narrative

Full Description

Project narrative

On January 24, 2018, the Chinese Ambassador to Namibia donated 10 desktop and 5 laptop computers to the New Era Publication Corporation (NEPC). The purpose of this donation was primarily to assist the prominent media outlet in day-to-day operations, but Ambassador Zhang recommended that the paper be sure to publish stories demonstrating Sino-Namibian friendship. Per the Chinese Embassy article, the ambassador suggested that the paper "tell the touching stories of Sino-Namibian people’s exchanges, depict the wonderful moments of bilateral cooperation, and make more The Namibian people perceive the trend of Sino-Namibian friendship." The donation was worth N$150,000.
