Herbert Jauch unpacks the role of Chinese companies in the Namibian economy

[PODCAST]

We took a closer look at a subject that continues to stir debate in Namibia’s labour and investment landscape: the role of Chinese companies in our economy — and more specifically, their relationship with Namibian workers.

Labour research expert Herbert Jauch — a long-time voice in Namibia’s labour movement — joined us to help us understand  this complex and pressing issue.
