Why would china want to support transportation development in kenya. Exaplain?

This question refers to the construction of the Chinese-built Standard Gauge Railway (SGR) in Kenya. This railway will link the capital of Nairobi with the town of Naivasha. The main benefit of the railway is that it will connect the country in a more efficient way, boosting trade and industrialization.

The railway is being built by Chinese companies and engineers. There are several reasons why China would want to support transportation development in Kenya. First, the development of the Kenyan economy would provide a trading partner for China, stimulating the Chinese economy. Second, the project will provide work for Chinese builders, engineers, designers, mechanics, etc. Third, the project encourages Kenya to borrow money from China, which benefits China through the interests paid on the borrowed money. Finally, the project would increase the Chinese sphere of influence in Africa.
