Obama’s half-brother lives in the same city as me

From the Washington Post: “Mark Okoth Obama Ndesandjo … has lived in the Southern Chinese city of Shenzhen for seven years and has just produced his autobiographical novel, ‘From Nairobi to Shenzhen.’”

Word on the street is Ndesandjo owns a restaurant here. I am determined to find it.

EDIT: Shenzhenparty.com details the book release press conference here. I have also learned that Ndesandjo owns, not one, but a chain of restaurants called Cabin BBQ (木屋烧烤 or mu wu ciao kao) in Shenzhen. He also owns WorldNexus, an Internet consulting company in the city.

    When the story of Obama’s half-brother first came out before the election, I was living in the same district…and I had no interest in meeting him unless he was paying for dinner. There was also some rumor that his business wasn’t legally registered in China.
