"This is the reason why as leaders we have agreed that we can no longer have our mineral resources processed outside the continent, all our resources should
be processed here in Africa to fully benefit our people," Zuma said at the 25th
African Union (AU) Summit here.
Zuma made the appeal while participating in the AU Presidential Golf Challenge, which aims to raise funds for the African Union Foundation.
Zuma welcomed all the Heads of State and Government as well as entire delegations to this historic summit, saying South Africa "is truly honored to
host the leadership of our continent for this crucial summit."
The summit is taking place at the Sandton International Convention Center in Johannesburg under the theme "Year of Women Empowerment and Development towards
Africa's Agenda 2063."

Kenyan opposition supporters clashed with police and threw up burning barricades on Thursday, seeking to derail an election rerun likely to return
Uhuru Kenyatta as president of East Africa's chief economic and political
powerhouse.
In the western city of Kisumu, stone-throwing youths heeding opposition leader Raila Odinga's call for a voter boycott were met by live rounds, tear gas
and water cannon. Gunfire killed one protester and wounded three others, a nurse
said. Reuters found no polling stations open there.
Riot police fired tear gas in Kibera and Mathare, two volatile Nairobi slums. Protesters set fires in Kibera early in the morning and in Mathara a church was
firebombed and a voter attacked.
Around 50 people have been killed Herre Nike Air Max TN Plus Udsalg Sort/Sølv Sko , mostly by security forces, since the original August 8 vote. The Supreme Court annulled Kenyatta's
win in that poll on procedural grounds and ordered fresh elections within 60
days, but Odinga called for a boycott amid concerns the poll would not be free
and fair.
The repeat election is being closely watched across East Africa, which relies on Kenya as a trade and logistics hub, and in the West, which considers Nairobi
a bulwark against Islamist militancy in Somalia and civil conflict in South
Sudan and Burundi.
While tensions simmered in opposition strongholds Herre Nike NSW Cortez Flyknit Tilbud Sort Guld Sko , other areas were calm. In the capital, polling stations saw a sprinkling of voters instead of the
hours-long queues that waited in August.
Interior minister Fred Matiang'i told Citizen TV that polling stations opened in 90 percent of the country, including Kiambu, where Kenyatta cast his ballot.
"We are requesting them [voters] humbly that they should turn out in large numbers," Kenyatta, the US-educated son of Kenya's founding father Herre Nike Air Vapormax 2018 Sko Sort Tilbud , Jomo Kenyatta, said after voting. "We're tired as a country of electioneering and I think it's time to
move forward."
If some counties fail to hold elections, it could trigger legal challenges to the election, stirring longer-term instability and ethnic divisions.
On Wednesday, the Supreme Court was due to hear a case seeking to delay the polls. But it was unable to sit after five out of the seven judges failed to
show up, fuelling suspicions among opposition supporters.
"The lack of a quorum is highly unusual for a Supreme Court hearing Billige Nike Air Max 97 2017 Retro Herre Sko Hvid ," a statement from the European Union said. "Not hearing this case has de facto cut off the legal path
for remedy."
MEXICO CITY, Sept. 7 (Xinhua) -- China has created 1.8 million jobs across Latin America and the Caribbean through trade, investments and infrastructure
projects over the last two decades, according to an International Labour
Organization (ILO) report on Thursday.
The report, named "Effects of China on the quantity and quality of jobs in Latin America and the Caribbean," indicated that the number of jobs facilitated
by the Chinese economy in the region between 1995 and 2016 represented four
percent of the total created jobs.
Around 60 percent of these 1.8 million jobs were linked to growing trade with China Herre Nike Air Max 97 Sko Sort 318001-001 Tilbud , 20 percent to infrastructure projects and 15 percent to direct Chinese investment, said the
co-author of the report, Enrique Dussel Peters, during the presentation.
"Until today, China in Latin America has generated almost 2 million jobs," commented Dussel Peters Vans Classic Slip On Hvid Vans Sko , coordinator of the China-Mexico Studies Center at the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM).
Jose Manuel Salazar, the ILO's director for Latin America and the Caribbean, highlighted that it was the first study concerning China's impact on employment
in the region. He added this showed how China was increasing its importance and
influence in global trade and investment at a time of a protectionist stance
from the U.S. government.
The ILO, which has 187 member states, is a United Nations agency dealing with labour problems, particularly international labour standards Vans Sk8 Hi Reissue Leather Udsalg Hvid Vans Sko , social protection, and work opportunities for all.
