Title is misleading. A technology investment loan was rejected, simple. How can anyone even believe that such a proposal in the title was made?
Kenya is not a communist country, Nairobi is privately owned by Kenyan businessmen with afew pockets of government reserve land, how would the government be able to sell a whole city they don't own.
Besides, even if this hypothetically happened, Nairobi is huge & land prices are too expensive, 30 billion won't even buy 1/4 o the city. This is a city that contains a whole national park within its borders.
OP can't read or was desperate for attention

This is a misleading headline, they simply turned down a Chinese loan. Good Move.

NO

IT SAYS THEY REJECTED A 3.1 MILLION DOLLAR LOAN FROM CHINA...

THEN A TRILLIONAIRE CAME THROUGH AND
OFFERED THEM 30 BILLION
TO OWN THE CITY FOR 5 YEARS.
:devil:
:evil:

BECAUSE THE PROPOSAL WAS MADE.

A 3.1 BILLION LOAN WAS REJECTED...

DUDE OFFERED 30 FOR THE CITY.


The Kenyan government has however rejected the proposal on arrival terming the deal as frivolous since Nairobi is the capital city of the country hence cannot be sold out at all costs.

Kenya needs to get both the Indians and Chinese up out their country.


I remember when I first learned about how much industry Indians own there. Went to business school and there was a pretty sizable population of Indian students claiming they were from Kenya, I was like :dwillhuh: at first I was thinking there was just a random large immigrant group there, then once I figured out every one of their fathers either owned a company there or was an exec at a corporation there, I was :martin:

That whole indian thing is being overplayed this ain't the 80's or 90's most those children leave and don't come back... That's why you see them in your schools. And they aren't all rich because they own a company. Most are concentrated in a few areas not widespread in the country.

Like most internationals at the top schools here in the us, yes, they all were well off to rich. But good to know that other parts of the Indian population there aren’t all rich and that it’s not a growing segment/they set foot decades ago.

Been there since colonialism. Cacs used them as a buffer between Whites and Blacks, trying to institute different classes in society... tried to leave them in top spots when they left the country. that's how they acquired their wealth. they weren't immigrants in the same sense as the Chinese are now.

IN reality we should have purged them like Idi Amin did in Uganda but the world still crying about that :lolbron:
