With the rising economic importance of Asia, Africans are delicately forging ties with both East and West.
1) What roles will Asia, in particular China and India, play in fuelling Africa's economic growth?
2) In what ways will Africa's growing ties with Asia be similar to and different from those with its traditional partners?
