Lol if people think that China is doing this out of good will. China is doing this for China and they will always want to come out on top whether that's through land deals or resource mining.

black people keep getting played. 2015 and mothafukkers still don't know what imperialism is? Same cycle, one group gives us false hope, we allow them in with open arms

, they steal our resources, use our people and we right back to where we started if not worse
Re-name the title to:
China has pledged 60 billion to develop Africa.........for the millions of chinese settlers that will live there and use all of the resources.
Read this before.
I'm grateful I'll be dead soon before I have to see africans suffer more in the future.
Im sure the return that they are sucking out the country is triple that. I dont like their "help" at all. I watched a documentary that showed me this "help" is only for their benefit.
If they're just trading natural resources for cheap infrastructure then Africa lost. The only way to independence is via skill training that can then be past down to the next generation, and the one after that.
it's most likely for natural resources, i'm pretty sure china is huge in cellphone manufacturing. there are several mineral resources in africa they can take advantage of.
I'm sayin though, these confused nikkas think a nation that has smog all over the place and a history of war mongering just like EuroCacs and SandCacs is gonna help Africa???
Trust cacs in 2015 bruhs
China's continued rape of Africa seems to be progressing.
But hey, their just one of many.
Natural resources are priceless, and take millions of years to regenerate. Cheap Chinese infrastructure requires constant maintenance, and where is the money coming from for that? Who is paying for the upkeep of roads, and buildings? And how are they paying for it? I don't know how you can be so naive to not realize that the benefits (longterm) China is going to reap from this "investment" far outweighs this measly 60 billion dollars.
What makes you think the Chinese can just walk in and colonise Africa? This isn't 1830.
The problem with you Westerners is your intellectual arrogance. You think you know everything, you think you can accurately predict the future, but you don't know jack. I was listening to a podcast about the Chinese in Congo. The Chinese can speak Lingala, live among the Congolese and eat the same food as the Congolese, while workers at the American embassy could only speak French and barely ventured out of their air-conditioned enclosures.
Their only interaction with natives apart from their drivers, cooks and stewards are short planned in advance appointments with the locals.
Yet these same people living in a hermetically sealed bubble are the ones who produce so-called "detailed" reports on the situation in Africa, and you will swallow the BS they produce without blinking.
Workers protested in Nigeria because their German employers set dogs upon them because they had the temerity to request for canteen facilities - (the Germans had no problems providing canteen facilities for themselves). Did the Western media carry that story? No. Why? Because it does not fit into the "Yellow Peril /Evil Chinese" stereotype.
The Chinese are evil, but the West is wonderful. Obama takes a picture with Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo - one of Africa's worst dictators, nobody bothers in the Western Media. Chevron and Shell hire the Nigerian Military / Para-Military forces to murder defenseless villagers, that is brushed under the carpet.
Chevron-Texaco, Exxon-Mobil, Shell, Total and Eni have made the poor people of the Niger Delta endure the equivalent of an Exxon Valdez Oil spill every year for the past 50 years. Does the Western media carry it? No. Why? Because the environmental damage caused by the Chinese in Zambia "is more important".
The Nigerian government has been trying to get the Oil majors to stop gas flaring in the Niger Delta since 1990. They ain't interested and neither is the Western media.
Please I don't want to hear the "Chinese are evil in Africa" BS again.
