Lara Netherlands, from South Africa, previously worked as an English teacher and then an English-language host during her seven years in Hainan. Recently, she added a new string to her bow, becoming CEO of her own company, Tilapia International Solutions. Established just last year, her consulting firm works to bring the African and Chinese markets closer together for mutual benefit, seeking opportunities for stakeholders on both sides, particularly in infrastructure. As an entrepreneur, she sincerely hopes that the scope of Hainan's visa-free entry policy can be expanded to include more African nations, providing African business owners looking to establish subsidiaries in Hainan with greater travel convenience and creating the conditions for greater economic cooperation. She also hopes to see more effective measures for boosting the agglomeration of the processing and manufacturing industry and the improvement of related amenities in Hainan to make the island a more attractive prospect for international business.
