Djibouti Hopes to Replicate Singapore

Gulf News published on 22 July 2017 an article titled "Africa's Singapore Is Slowly Taking Shape" by Bashir Goth, commentator on African affairs.

The author argues that Djibouti's strategic location accounts for its massive infrastructure projects, mainly from China, and interest by other countries such as the United States. Suggesting that Djibouti will one day reach the developmental level of Singapore, however, seems a stretch.
