Why do y'all think it's such a common occurence for black nations to be dominated econonically by foreigners, whether chinese arab or indian? :to:

I've already done some research on this topic, but i wanna know what yall think

If you look at black communities all over the planet, they are poor, which makes it easier to take advantage of, exploit and outright dominate

The reason for the poverty is because illiteracy or low education levels and little capitalism (banks, real estate and busunesss ownership)

So IMO those 2 things is what black people, regardless of location, need to address

I JUST left Ocho Rios two days ago.

While Umar is a fraud, there's a bit of truth to what he's saying. Whole place is teeming with Asians in general. They definitely tryinta take things over.

(Jamaica is the ILLEST, though...big ups to the island!)

I brought up Michael Lee Chin and the VP Records family as examples of Chinese who assimilate and contribute. Yeah, Chin made his money in Canada, but then came back (bought a bank) and is making moves to help push the country forward. Based on the past I don't see why a portion of this new crop of Chinese wouldn't assimilate too.

Outside of Supermarkets/Retail I dont know of Chinese bringing their own labor in other industries like how they import labor to Africa. (If I'm wrong lemme know) Even in the vid I only heard the sis talk about retail spots (markets, shops, hair places, etc.)

Its a two way street: Development requires Foreign Direct investment (FDI). The Chinese investment leads to the creation of more important jobs than the retail jobs lost. Not to mention were making strides in getting Debt to GDP ratio down. The government is also doing a great job of attracting Jamaicans abroad to return for business opportunities.

Besides FDI, I'd like to see:
  • more of us from the Diaspara return
  • the government set up a Sovereign Wealth Fund
  • compete for global customer support and freelance jobs.
Lmao will never happen :mjgrin:

Americans talking about a land they've never set foot in. This shyt is hilarious.

But we know what we see breh... :dwillhuh: why are you in denial about what's happening in your country???

It happened in Vancouver where they destroyed the housing market, it happened in San Fran, It's happening in Africa and then we here stories about it happening in Jamaica... :dwillhuh:

Why is it that hard to fathom that your govt sold the people out for a buck, instead of investing & developing networks in black african & haitian businesses they allowed the chinese to develop on your land, sell you plastic rice and food and poison your fellow island brethren then got the nerve to be mad at us when we point it out??? :mindblown:

They assimilated because they were not investors. These people coming in are strictly business. These are new times with different rules. Your playing with an outdated playbook.

And outside of Supermarkets/Retail you don't know of Chinese bringing their own labor? I mean first, there are complaints by workers, firms and unions that jobs are not fairly distributed. But besides that, you just said Supermarkets/Retail. If the economy improves, where do you think the money is going to go?

This is not a 2-way street, a 2-way street would be a partnership. This is a bad business agreement.

Issa trick.

This nikka is Rwandan, NOT Jamaican.

He's criticizing us "speaking on land we never set foot in" because we gave him that work MULTIPLE times in The Root about the chinese in Africa.

He kept bringing up africa hoping somebody would take the bait so he can say Rwandans aren't getting pimped by the Chinese and if you press him he'll ultimately deny White Supremacy has it's foot up Rwanda's ass.

Just ignore him

These fools swear they are winning, but they are just happy to be alive. Blissful ignorance.

The Vancouver housing market is exactly the reason why I said the Chinese will squeeze you from the top and bottom. Jamaicans wont be able to deal price increases and they will not be able to compete with cost of production.

It's happening in Toronto now too.

They are going to be praying and hoping for Chinese assimilation to saves them. And we all no how much people love assimilating with us.:beli:

Exactly I was surprised the jamaican govt cow-towed to the chinese so damn easily tho... :scust: havent they've been paying attention to what's happening around the world with the stupid rich foreign investors coming in purchasing the land and not even sharing with the indigenous people?! if your a black nation or island how hard is it to link up with other likeminded black nations and govts?!!? :mindblown: build your own pipeline. I'm disgusted seeing my caribbean people complaining about plastic food imported by the chinese, they should run them the fukk outta there!!! :ufdup: I know this if I saw that and I had power on that island I'd kick all you b*stards outta here off that shyt alone... Pay attention!!!

Don't allow them a foothold in your country if it aint in writing as a govt charter or agreement where you can legally back it up DON'T DO BUSINESS WITH THEM!!! :ufdup:

You have no idea what you're talking about. And I highly doubt you watch reports for all 54 countries. That is a complete and utter lie. In other words, you don't know shyt.
