The preferential trade policy of the United States has made Lesotho a major textile producer in Africa.

Most of Lesotho's textile industry comes from China.

Lesotho is a mountain country surrounded by South Africa. The economy depends to a large extent on trade preferences, especially the "Africa opportunity development program" of the United States, which provides preferential quota and duty free channels for Lesotho's textile industry.

Ms. Chen from China founded a textile enterprise in Maseru, capital of Lesotho, with 500 employees.

In the past 25 years, the Chinese textile enterprises in Lesotho have developed from 7 to 52.

The textile industry has also promoted the local economic development and become the leading role of Lesotho's exports.

Chinese entrepreneurs are now the main body of foreign investment in Lesotho, far ahead of South African investors.

Lesotho has also become one of the most concentrated areas of Chinese immigrants in African countries.

However, the relationship between the Chinese and the locals is not always harmonious, and there have been attacks on Chinese people.

Marlay sang, a textile workers union, says people are not used to getting rich quickly.

However, in recent years, the Chinese have taken the initiative to "do in Rome as the Romans do" and even learn the local Su Tuo language.

Life is not easy for textile workers in Lesotho.

They work 9 hours a day, and sometimes work overtime. The monthly salary is only about 90 Swiss francs (1 Swiss francs plus 6.5 yuan), and there are not many benefits.

Nevertheless, they seem to be proud of working in factories in China.
