It is the 12^thyears that African economies continued to sustain the growth momentum in 2007，and basic macroeconomic data in Africa have been increasingly improved. In 2008，the African leaders strengthen the consciousness of economic reform，try to raise the management’s ability，and the agricultural production will be a harvest，GDP in Africa is expected to grow to 5.9%. However，the slowdown in global growth，and the impact of the food and fuel price shock，the majority of African countries inflationary pressures is intensifying，pose threats to economic growth. The South African economy growth has been slowing down. Notably，the Asia-Africa cooperation has been strengthened in recent years，the fourth “Tokyo International Conference on African Development”（TICAD）and the first “India-Africa Summit” were held，lead to the international capital increase inflow in Africa，and create a good external environment for African development. The outlook of Africa economy in 2009 remain quite optimistic，the continent is set to feel a negative impact of the global crisis，particularly in areas such as capital inflow is facing new challenges.
