According to the Chinese Ministry of Commerce, direct investment from China to countries participating in Belt and Road Initiative has surged from $200 million in 2003 to $14.53 billion in 2016. Since the establishment of One Belt, One Road, contracts have been concluded for over $126.03 billion. This mighty ambitious project has a significant impact on the countries concerned.
