Hafrik started in China. Not as a company, but as a response to confusion, isolation, and misinformation many Africans face when living abroad. What began as a small community is growing into something bigger. 🌍 A home away from home for Africans abroad. Wherever you land, Hafrik is home. #Hafrik #AfricansAbroad #AfricansInChina #DiasporaStories #lifeabroad https://youtu.be/qnb6aRpKA_I

My question is: ⁠1: Does self-defense legally exist in China? 2: If someone attacks you, how much are you allowed to defend yourself? 3: Is there more leniency if you’re protecting your family? 4: How do police usually tell the difference between self-defense and “mutual fighting”? Just trying to understand how this works in practice, not criticizing. Thanks!

Thank You, 2025 🤍 2025 reminded us why Hafrik exists. To every foreigner, student, creator, business owner, and professional who used Hafrik this year, thank you. Whether you found a job, attended an event, built real connections, or simply felt less alone navigating life in China, you were part of something bigger. Hafrik is not just a platform. It’s a community. It’s a bridge. It’s people helping people figure things out. We’re grateful for everyone who believed in the vision, shared opportunities, showed up for others, and helped make Hafrik the foreigners’ hub it continues to grow into. As we step into 2026, we’re building more, connecting deeper, and doing even better together. Let’s do more. Let’s go further. Let’s keep building Hafrik. 💚 Download the app or visit: www.hafrik.com

2025: Lessons, Growth, and Moving Forward As I look back on 2025, one theme stands out for me: growth through movement. This year, I made the decision to leave my city and step into a new environment. It wasn’t comfortable, but it pushed me to think bigger, build smarter, and challenge myself in new ways. Leading and developing Hafrik as an ecosystem, while growing HafrikPlay , #HafrikTV and other projects, demanded resilience, clarity, and discipline. Entrepreneurship isn’t just about ideas. It’s about adapting, making tough calls, and staying focused when things are uncertain. One important lesson stood out: 👉 Don’t force people into a vision they don’t believe in. Create movement. The right people align themselves. Not every decision paid off. Some sacrifices didn’t return what I expected. Some seasons required slowing down and restructuring. But there were meaningful wins: clearer systems, better direction, stronger confidence in where we’re going. Someone asked me recently: “What do you do for fun?” That question made me rethink balance and sustainability. Building matters. Living intentionally matters too. I also want to say thank you. To my co-founders and teammates at HafrikPlay: Omobosola Alaka ,Abolaji Alaka Destiny Ezenwata thank you for your dedication and belief in the vision. And to everyone who has contributed in any way across the Hafrik ecosystem, your support, ideas, and effort truly matter. As I step into 2026, I’m carrying clarity, discipline, and determination. And I’m focusing on what aligns, what builds, and what truly matters. Grateful for the journey. Grateful for the lessons. And thankful to God for seeing me through. On to 2026.

Why are these hotels so cheap? These are not the only ones I have seen, there are dozen of phenomenal looking hotels for less than $30. They also have quite a lot of reviews but it seems a bit too good. Can somebody explain what I might be missing or if that is a common scam?

I was on a wechat group today and i saw a voice message of someone saying that Guangzhou has stopped doing extensions for Africans there, meanwhile i was planning to extend my visa there next month someone should please advice me on what to do next i dont want to be hooked or get overstay.

Supporting Foreigners With Real Solutions. So Earlier today, a foreign entrepreneur reached out in our community asking for a trusted service in Shenzhen that could translate academic degrees into Chinese and provide an official stamped translation. This is a common requirement for work permits, company registration, school applications, and other official processes in China, yet it’s often hard for foreigners to find reliable providers. Our support team responded immediately to understand her location and exact need. After checking our existing contacts in Shenzhen, we were able to recommend a verified translation company that specializes in official academic document translations accepted by Chinese authorities. Recommended Company Details: • Company Name: New World Translation • Service: Academic degree translation with official stamp • City: Shenzhen • WeChat ID: XSJHR2004 The contact was shared directly in the group so she could reach out without delays or uncertainty. This is a simple example of how the community works. When someone has a real need, we connect them to real solutions using trusted contacts. No guessing, no unnecessary back and forth, just practical help that saves time and stress. We’ll continue to support foreigners and entrepreneurs by sharing verified information and contacts that make life and business in China easier.

The way China changes policy needs to be studied, because omo tell me why something is working this week and the next thing, it isn’t working anymore, and the craziest part is when you ask why, their reply is always NO WHY. lol 🤣

I was having an argument with some friends, Where does all this big brands actually produce from, (Atleast what they called original)
