Many Africans come to China hoping for a stable monthly job. The reality is different. Out of 100 people, maybe 5 get a proper role — and even that depends on passport, skills, experience and sometimes skin colour. But here’s the truth most people don’t hear early: China rewards people who open their minds, not just those looking for salary work. If you’re willing to learn, try small opportunities, build relationships and show up consistently, this place can transform your life. Whether you come as a student or a visitor, planning ahead is everything. Start testing ideas early, learn how the market works, and surround yourself with people who push themselves to grow. That’s one reason we built Hafrik — a platform helping Africans in China connect with real communities, events, businesses and opportunities. Because when you’re plugged into the right network, everything changes. If you stay open-minded, consistent and intentional, China won’t just be a place you live — it becomes a place you grow.
