The Sino Zim relations have their merits and demerits evidenced by the indicators of their relationship trend where politically there is technical and moral support, elections and diplomacy, economically there is trade, agriculture, investment, aid and socially there are cultural exchanges evidenced by the use of soft power and there is also the availability of basic necessities. A sample participants in the Government of Zimbabwe Asia desk, focus groups and those in the economic sector as respondents. Interviews were used in order to gain the information from the selected respondents. Results obtained were based on the information acquired where in some cases the Sino Zim engagement has culminated economically in the loss of livelihoods, loss of revenue due to the lack of uniform application of regulatory laws, human capital exploitation, and lack of bargaining power and supply of substandard goods.
