audacity, Kadudu - Ruto was posturing with GtoG, touring China, etc. He is looking for offers. With Ethiopia, Egypt new BRICS kids West is the safer bet. Posturing is good - US & EU should believe he wants to join BRICS while Xi should see similar red signals. He seems to wag Meg Whitman to do his bidding just fine.
Jetsetting is part of Ruto's day job as the Ambassador in Chief of Kenya. Note how he rebranded the ministry as INVESTMENT, Trade & Industry. Except Moses Kuria could not measure up.
Chinese hitech companies & investors. are not proper yet at looking to invest abroad stage - unlike western VCs. Kenya has no competitor in Eastern & Central Africa except tiny Rwanda who are still learning English.
