but the chinese market is really untapped. as the government of kenya, we want to support the growth to take the products there. but it has not done that. >> our manufacturing capacity is not fulfilled because we are not fully competitive yet and we do need government intervention to urgently address our competitiveness. secondly, there are no preferential trade agreements also with china. rishaad: at the same time, both manufacturers and kenya's leaders see the increasing number of chinese firms as a positive. >> we welcome chinese manufacturers to the manufacturing fold. manufacturing is part of the big four agenda driven by the government. and we really need as much investment. both local direct investment as well as foreign direct investment into kenya to create a strong manufacturing hub. rishaad: the president's big four agenda aims to boost manufacturing to 15% of the gdp from around 9% by 2022. and homere -- construction are the rest of the growth. >> just the extent of manufacturing we see is creating thousands of job

there is definitely steps the chinese can take. big structural changes like liberalizing the exchange rate, or opening the capital account, that is probably not stuff the chinese want to do. it is certainly not in america's interest for them to do it. so, i would say there is a sliding scale of changes. i think the problem is the chinese are resistant to doing anything because they feel they have a gun pointed at their head. shery: all structural changes you just mentioned, it is not like the chinese have not tried. they have tried, but at the same time there have been limitations and they worry about destabilizing their own economy. so, how much can china realistically do without hurting their economy when it comes to opening up their own market? evan: you have to separate liberalization of the financial sector from liberalization of the broader services sector. if they wanted to liberalize transportation or health care or logistics, they can absolutely do so in a meaningful way that would have a significant benefit for americans
