The narrators on subject of team China’s initiatives and efforts have difficult time spinning, no time for reflection / deliberation, or no shame. What they do have is a headline, “China colonising Africa by serfing debt”

- China importing Chinese into Africa (as opposed to Europeans exporting Africans to everywhere else)

- China using Chinese to build Africa (as opposed to Europeans using Africans to ...)

- China building infrastructure in Africa for Africans (Europeans not building ...)

- China lending to Africa (Europeans not lending to Africa)

None pay attention to truth that Africans can simply say “no”.

So, possibly besides jealousy, there is an uneasy feel that, “the Chinese may just succeed by enabling the Africans”

Why the outcome would be bad is not explained.

ultimately what this is about is turning Africa “into another Chinese continent”…

In Canada we import folks to continue the unsustainable consumption ponzi scheme ...

CO2.. a distraction We are Frogs in heating water.. and not due to CC but we have Facebook... Twitter ... Instagram 'friends' LOL
