As China's footprint in Kenya expands and Kenya's debt increases, there is growing concern that Chinese involvement will have long-term implications for Kenyans. These concerns include the impact on local industries, transparency and accountability, higher unemployment, environmental and social impacts, debt sustainability, and dependency on Chinese technology. There have not been many studies addressing the understanding of Kenyans' perceptions regarding this evolving relationship. This thesis delves into the complex dynamics between these two countries by examining public opinion using data from the latest Afrobarometer survey.
