Fieldwork-based reporting from January 2026 suggests the Addis Ababa–Djibouti Railway is consolidating locally led operations after a 2024 management handover and is benefiting from stronger rail–port integration. Planned branch lines, industrial-park links, and logistics-zone development aim to lift utilization, though feeder-network gaps and import-heavy cargo patterns remain key constraints.
World Bank WDI data via FRED show China’s youth unemployment rate rising from 12.404% in 2021 to 15.795% in 2025, with a sustained mid-teen plateau since 2022. The persistence suggests structural school-to-work frictions that may weigh on consumption and increase pressure for targeted employment support.
World Bank WDI data via FRED show China’s youth unemployment rate (ages 15–24) remaining in the mid-teens from 2022 through 2025, reaching 15.795% in 2025.
