The number of specific projects on transport technology have been implemented in South Africa, China. More than 30 scholarships and fellowships between Southern Africa and China have been achieved. Currently there are more than 10 specialists on transport and higher education at SACTCC. This Forum is the 4th series during the SATC from 2014 to 2017 as an annual base.
