Unreported World - Season 13 - Episode 3 - part 3

China's African Takeover
Toiling for survival in the mines of Africa, even children are forced to work here. And behind this boom, the Chinese. China needs Africa's Copper and Cobalt to feed its fast growing economy. The Chinese bring work and money, but it all comes at a tragic human cost.

WELCOME TO CAPITALISM! IT's not China but the entire world. Wake up people not only China! Think of investors in Europe and the US who are exploiting Africa. Growth should be steady and be happy companies are willing to invest in Africa and provide jobs. When Africans master the industry they can compete with other countries and take things back.

What is important to take away from these videos is not some self righteous indignation of an African in the diaspora but to understand the desperation of those who live in poverty who are able to make at best minimal amount of cash to survive on by working for these chinese. The truth though cannot be ingored which is that we Africans have to do better for our own people. The truth is Africa is moving from one form of colonisation to another.

spoony54, I wont be surprised if you have business in africa,

china is not better not worst that was european, u.s., and who ever

put their hand in africa, does that means that what china is doing is ok

china abuse as much if not more, as long as local dirigeant-s do not stand

any abuse-s remains possible, open door, china has the capabilities (money, technic, men, time, needs) so, why not.
