I'm all in on China in Africa

[Amestafuu (Emeritus)]

Breh African countries have already agreed to hundreds of billions in LOANS which will be paid to Chinese companies employing Chinese to extract resources to send back to .....China
But hey they get roads and bridges out of it, amirite
And that's not even including all the ILLEGAL mining and stealing China is doing there.
Far as Europeans destroying the land in the past....I'm not sure what kinda rebuttal that is to be honest. So we supposed to let China do the same thing in 2019!?

Illegal mining been going on in the congo and other countries before China. Mineral extraction and oil, precious stones etc. You are not sure what kind of rebuttal it is because you are deflecting. Apparently these are all new issues China has brought to the continent.

Breh African countries took billions of loans from world bank and defaulted on them (build nothing in the process) yet nobody made these pessimistic threads crying bout the demise of Africa.



We are doomed.




NOPE

Africa is done out ere

 

[Swahili P'Bitek]

Hahahaaahaaaa, Africa is done if we don't learn how to do things for ourselves, produce what we consume and be resourceful with the natural wealth we have.I'd rather rail or road be built by our own means,using our own Cement over a long period of time by our own head engineers than by the chinaman.We messed up in the 70s and 80s...we could get on track, but by the way things are going...its free fall time
We need to counter this unfair trade thats going on and trust in our own intellectual capabilities, but NO! Liu Kang has to come design our roads, and foreign western PR firms write manifestos for political parties.Walter Rodney lay down the blueprint, sadly no African leader read it.How can you be a country that produces vast amounts of product X and the largest importer of manufactured goods derived from the same product...and as all this is going on, politicians are still stealing and the public debt and population increasing like a mathafaka

Because if you give Wazee the reigns they eat the budgets. This is how we got here. How many years have you as an African grown up hearing about mismanaged funds. Unrealized projects and yet we footed the bills for all that money borrowed. The terms are unfavourable and the situations is not ideal but African corruption is endemic. As soon as you give those old pot belly oligarchs the money they put it in their stomach and pockets, how much of it ever trickles down to fund the purposes it is intended for?

I'm not pro-china I'm for progress and it came with a cost due to US (our leaders). Now if Wanachi want to address corruption and uproot it we can FINALLY do for self and self sustain. My father used to work for one of the ministries. I literally seen them lay foundations for building projects and fukk off with the money. This was the game for years

At first I was vehemently against this, reacting in a manner we black people are known for, emotionally. And with arrogance.

Africa needs to be industrialized! None of these European nations are or have considered this. Their way was to come in, give Africans religion, a few crumbs, and take their resources. Leaving them in poverty.

China is going to go a different route. Reason being...they need an ally. In their competition vs euro world they need an ally. And they're going to enlist the strongest people on this planet. They're going to give Africans manufacturing and weaponry!

Now, some of you are saying "China is only doing this for their own selfish reasons", and I respond of course they are. Key is, it's up to us Africans and blacks to CAPITALIZE from this opportunity!

When they give us this industry and weaponry we must get past this tribalism and form a unified front.

America and Europe are in a tough spot. We know how they view Africa. How they refuse to see black Americans and Africans as allies. Their way is to simply abuse and use us. But the European strong arm pimp is about to lose its bytch to a more modern pimp. A pimp who actually splits the money made with the hoe. Which gives the hoe a chance to build herself up and better herself. And eventually move from having a pimp if she plays her cards right.

It's up to us to play our cards right!

Brothers the Day of the Dog is coming!

I admit I responded in the exact same manner when I heard how they were operating there, but your post is intriguing.

American and European propaganda working hard like always. Like America doesn't have fifty bases on the continent ready for whatever.

The fact is the West is scared as fukk to lose the race to Africa, but since the racism run deep, they don't bring nothing to the table except pointed fingers to demonize China. While Chinese at least offers something.

China is an opportunity for Africa. It's on Africans to seize it to get on the next level. Glad they don't fall victims to the fearmongering.

The game is still the same, in the past they used to eat the allocated budget, nowadays they inflate the costs by 2 or 3 times then eat the residue, to the point that the project would take an eternity to be economically beneficial while the public debt is significantly raised.On top of this there are still a lot of projects being carried out by the ministries which people steal manipulate through playing with tenders and fake companies.So, the devil is still there and yet another one has emerged.

 

[Premeditated]

How any of thos are "african" by blood. South Africa and north Africa is filled with non Africans

even if you take out Cushytes and North Africans, black African is still a billion strong right now. and only 10% of South Africa is white. Niger Congo A and Bantus make the balks of Africa.
