China investing more in Africa

[Kalydosos]

Many don't know that without African resources the west starves the elite white imperialists are in the process of pulling out of central Asia and are now. Turning back to Africa they don't want to have to deal with a China middle man when they want access to vital resources. The uncle tom African leaders working with them really have know clue what type of animal they are dealing with, or they are just very frightened. Who knows.

[Kalydosos]

Its in China's interests to be as helpful to Africa as possible now ; especially in the light of what happened in Ivory Coast and Libya were one leader was humiliated. The other executed in cold blood now Obama has sent 100 highly trained killers to Uganda I don't think any African leader can sleep safe in his bed. Many forget Gaddafi was doing pretty much everything the west wanted and he was still publicly executed as warning to those who seek to close ties with anyone, but the West .

[MultiLex101]

FOOLS!! The increasing billions china is loaning to Africa is not interest free, what do you think will happen when Africa cannot afford to pay back these loans?! They will take whatever assets the country consists of in order to recuperate there money, even then the loan plus interest will STILL not be covered, so in essence China will OWN the African country's in debt, they are doing what the whites did but the consequences will be much more devastating for us and you guys are praising them?!

[Yodle2012]

DON'T LISTEN TO WHAT WHITES SAY! THEY EXPLOITED AFRICA AND COLONIZED AFRICA AND LEFT IT TO ROT!! WHITES ARE ONLY OUT FOR THEMSELVES! AFRICA HAS A FRIEND IN CHINA!!!

[711mind]

China is up to something

[fcbtim]

the racial bickering on these comments actually serves no purpose or value-added arguments to this issue. so stop that shit and learn to be PRODUCTIVE together. it's quite obvious that chinese investment in Africa will undoubtedly bring up certain region's standard and quality of life - otherwise economies in Africa would never have partnered with foreign chinese firms. i'd say this is the biggest upside to FDI. again like i said before, we MUST take a holistic perspective on this or else

[fcbtim]

the debt being created now through such infrastructural investments? how would Africa itself handle some of the comparative and absolute advantages? the cultural, administrative, geographical, and economical arbitrage opportunities being taken advantage of right now from Africa by China? the scarcity of natural resources? - these all must be analyzed over the long-run. let's take a look at this objectively & keep the semantics out of it - in today's world it is imperative economies work TOGETHER

[spanjo091]

@fcbtim no they are not

[fcbtim]

i think in this debate it's best to keep politics, racial and cultural implications out of it. the past is the past and we must look towards the future. what are the potential upsides to chinese investment in Africa? More importantly, what are the potential ramifications? we need to raise concerns over the financial consequences of chinese investment. on one hand, this type of FDI is extrmeely important because it modernizes Africa, gives them working room in today's economy.. but what about

[Microglia1]

"We need to trade". Exactly. All trading makes everyone rich equally...except if you're Western Europe and America...then you only want to sell weapons that kill people.

[MrCrocodilehunter]

Westerners have only been in exploitation mode and Africa as the butt of their dinner jokes, bluntly put. China on the other hand is, practical, engaged and straightforward. When was the last time the United States invited African leaders together to a joint summit or conference on economic, strategic or military cooperation?

[nlRobertnl]

yes yes yes finaly no more development aid help to africa from the west good going China :) and don't lend to much billions of China, otherwise Africa will never ever pay the debt back. And I don't think China will be happy with that mabey its just for own benefit like all nations has done to Africa

[guapgueezee]

@nlRobertnl oh shut up you uneducated bum.. it is trade you retarded racist idiot.. and it was never developmental aid you dumb fuck read john perkins book matter of fact watch his clips here on yt.. dummy the west never gave out of compassion.. it was always inflated "loans" they knew africa latin america asia couldnt pay back then they go in for the kill like predatory creditors.. read then talk..

[nlRobertnl]

@guapgueezee I'm not a racist I'm just giving a opinion of what i think I'm happy for Africa that finaly a country is going to help them and the west did give development aid and you know that but the corrupt leaders in Africa use it for own benefit. Thats why I hope African citizens will rise against their own leaders. But you think all whites are the same. Did you know that my country gives each year 5 billion for just developmant in third world country's what is good but just to much of money

[TheAndrekks]

Hey dont say fuck the west! Brazil is with the bricks and with you!

[markeithmm89]

God don't like ugly.. All the wickedness whites cause on blacks are back firing on them. Thanks to the Chinese people, we'll probably will have a needed renaissance.

[VoorheesFanatic777]

@markeithmm89 Do not listen to that bullshit, it's best that we ignore them because they fucked our minds up for centurys. All that shit that they posted all over the internet about china. Don't listen too it and its best for us is to what we doing keep voting for china and we will all help get modernized.This is for all the blacks around the world need to hear this also.

[XxLIVRAxX]

The Chinese are wining the race of public opinion in the African continent with honey...a smart and cost effective strategy, and above all with pragmatism, they don't care if the regime that they make business with is a democracy or not, they do not push for political reforms or human rights...Simply good business

[thierryfreeman]

@XxLIVRAxX because you think exxon mobil in nigeria always cared?France willing to sell weapons tokadhaffi cared?? Total in Angola they care about democracy?stop the propaganda we know better;look there are stiil too much investments needed; stop beeing jaleous about china and let just invest and be more imaginative

[XxLIVRAxX]

@thierryfreeman Before putting words on my mouth, or better said, typing words for me make sure you are holding a firm ground in terms of what I think regarding this issue, never have I said that the transnational oil companies cared or did something in favour of democracy, chinese pragmatism and disregard for promoting Human Rights its no lie, as true as the disregard of trasnational oil companies for the social or enveriomental welfare of the locals, dont be such a jugdmental asshole

[okeleke1]

I am africains and I like china , to work with africa than america and europe those 2 R so wicked people I hate america and euroope

[zigyzigy13]

@okeleke1 Which country are you from africa? I have a good impression towards Sudanese.

[SGTLima66]

@okeleke1 lol - good now the Africans can burden the Chinese !

[Monttai]

making some africans rich so that they have money to develop their own industries,

Then more africans will have rescource to invest in educations. As long as they are politically satble Africans nations can be even better.

[inconvenient12345]

china is good and is a good role model for africa, fuck the west i can't wait for all this western countries to go down the drain.

[DoItForGood]

China and africa will grow strong.

[vixxy02]

@DoItForGood AMEN TO THAT!!!!

[ResearchKnowledge123]

Africa would be building cars right now if America had not overthrown the greatest African President in history, Kwame Nkruma. He set Ghana on the path of rapid industrialization after colonialism. America couldn't tolerate this and had him overthrown. Now Africa has its chance to reach first world status. Thanks to China. Go Go China and Africa. Develop together. Grow strong and powerful and topple the US, European hegemony!

[ulleule]

africa RISE with china stand by our side... China is gona help you unlike those igorant americans who only wants to abuse africa.. i mean just look with your own eyes.. what have usa done to africa last 30 years ?? ... they talk so good but no action.. the diffrens between china and the us is china make the action first and talk later.

[eriblood]

FUCK THE WEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They only exploit Africa , fuck the NWO. And now they critize China because they are scared Africa will kick out the West. China is a good nation and I hope they will expand in Africa.

FUCK THE USA< NWO

[CaptainGOP]

The chinese are investing more in africa because the resources there not because of the people. The chinese are smart enough to realise that these dumb jungle chimps in turd world africa have no idea about economics hence the reason why some of the jungle chimps presidents live in Massive mansions while the people live in mudhuts. By the time the chinese people are done the chimps in africa will have nothing because of long leases and low pay out followed by massive government spending.

[Kalydosos]

@CaptainGOP Your an idiot!

[kimononvidia]

yea, chinese uphold the value of confuciousm..

harmony of life..

[MsCuriousCat]

China is good, Im glad someone has some good sense because america is very wicked, look how they kills innocent people and Im Native Indian Cherokee/Comanche indian 2 thumbs up for CHINA.

[wildpeachatl737]

Perhpas you might want to look into China's human rights abuses...

[ericown]

so.. killing innocent Iraqi is not human rights abuses....

[wildpeachatl737]

I didn't ever say it wasn't; we're speaking of China here and not the U.S., but since you obviously are, I'm in agreement with you on that particular point.

[s227h]

@MsCuriousCat

LOL. China steals body parts from dead people and sells it on the black market. In their culture they believe the more you torture an animal the better it will taste. Not only that, but they armed Sudan to the teeth so they could all kill each other. Every country is corrupt. You don't know what the hell you're even talking about you stupid fuck.

[x11115]

well yes obviously all china is interested in is getting it's resources and making it's empire stronger. China has the longest history of being an empire and the most experienced. You don't think they know what their doing or something you have another thing coming. China also owns the US dollar with joint owner Japan. They are not our friends guys. Study China and history and also communism. These factors combined are not good and are part of a plot. It's not a joke, they are real.

[superiorgreen]

This is actually 10 billion ways to corrupt and kill Africans slowly. This is how you enslave people, give them something they will never be able to pay back, they will have to work for life for you, indebted to your philanthropy. China will now be welcome to rape their resources, the only way they will be able to repay the loans. The end result, they are left with nothing as the corrupt leaders put the money in Swiss accounts.

[wildpeachatl737]

China is just another country in a long line of those who previously (and still) continue to exploit Africa's resources.

[superiorgreen]

Then they are all just as guilty of harming a rich culture and resource rich land, that never should have belonged to them on the other side of the world! This loan BS from imperialistic causes is destroying Africa.

[wildpeachatl737]

That goes without saying...

[hallonolove]

LOL.

China dumping it's hard earned US dolars in Africa. So it is true, the dolar will be god to wipe ass in the near future.

Hope Africa will develop.

[sonamopress]

its good news,we need new markets for african goods and china the place to be.
