It would be nice to hear more about what China is doing in Africa. Even if it's to do a history lesson about how the CCP was behind the Mali civil war, and how that ties into what China is doing there now. Do you think that members of the AU are too corrupt and ripe for the PLA's picking? Perhaps African countries need greater assurances from the west?

That’s what I saw and analyzed from the time China introduced the soft loans through the Build & Road Initiative ( B&RI) and strangle the countries by bringing their own “ specialists” but at the same time their ordinary worker. And even opening cheap small shops. Depriving income to the locals workers, therefore depriving taxes to the government. Then loans can’t be paid. So then again interests grows until they control the country and dictate. That’s also a soft colonization through debts. That’s what happen to Pakistan and Sri Lanka.

I mean it's not surprising. The government and the rich benefit by making deals with the Chinese while the poor don't even see the scraps of said deals while the very ground under their feet is being sold out. It's just new form of colonialism, except the Chinese do not feel any kind of obligation to care for the people. People can rightfully criticize the European colonialism for their various evils, but most nations that did settle the world also carried the 'white mans burden' mindset that provided at least some benefits for the new, often unwilling, subjects. For the Chinese it's purely numbers game, they'll appease and invest only as much as is needed.
Same thing is happening in Philippines and Indonesia as well as Brazil and other developing countries

Coming from Kenya myself, this is plain corruption. I know the locals over price things they import, but it really speaks volumes about how corrupt a country is when a foreigner comes and kills competition for many locals. I don't mind Chinese investors coming into Kenya to do things like manufacturing and real estate, but such type of retail is not healthy in the long-run. I am pretty sure knowing how Chinese operate, he basically said let me start by making a loss though I will kill competition then once I have the market look for ways to start making a profit, this is expensive to do and not many locals can compete tbh.

Kenyan business men have complete control over our trading policies because they are the ones that import and even fund these politicians. 90% of the consumer products these businessmen import are from China and they redistribute them to smaller traders and supermarkets. China isn't the problem in Kenya, the Kenyan elites who do nothing but import are. They won't diversify either since the Chinese products are cheap and they can make huge profit margins by selling them double or triple the price

The US has done this with their subsidized products across NAFTA. You have to remember though that savings to the consumer allow the consumer to purchase other type of items which in turn increase jobs. Cheaper goods by a farmer that used horses meant that more people could turn to writing or manufacturing for jobs even although they lost their farming jobs. Cheaper goods by Chinese producers means that Africans can now afford different things like solar panels or infratructure. Instead of Africans manufacturing and trading like the Chinese they can move into different industries.

The sad part that probably nobody is talking about is this: it's not like these local Kenyan vendors were artisans who were selling nicer goods that cost more, and then they got put out of business by cheap Chinese crap. They were ALREADY selling cheap Chinese crap, and simply got undercut by the Chinese selling the same crap for even cheaper. I hope Kenya is able to increase their own domestic industry someday to the point where they don't have to rely on imported garbage anymore at all. They certainly have the human capital to make it work.

This whole Chinese situation in African continent reminds me of how British east India company came to India, made small kingdoms fight against each other, took over whole subcontinent, took control of of Indian textile market, made Indian hand looms die, in major regions like bengal and Gujarat where Indian textile products were blooming before, they forcibly closed down the factories, broke worker's hands(literally) and made them jobless, just to take our raw material back to england and sell their own products at cheaper rates, they basically killed our textile and handloom workers both physically and financially.

Apparently Indians are all incredibly stupid and naive and can't help but fall for the white devils' tricks. The rest of it is a nice fairy tale Indians like to tell but it has no relation to reality. The British textile industry was already on its way to industrialization before the East India Compnay showed up in India. The idea that Britian needed Indian raw materials is especially stupid given all the cotton they could get from the other side of the Atlantic.

Neo-Colonialism isn't "Neo". People just have a wrong, distorted image of what old, European colonialism looked like. It was the exact same thing as what the Chinese are doing now. They didn't just jump out of ships and storm beaches. What happened was that some businessmen would show up in a place and ask the local king or chieftain whether he wanted to buy some modern weapons to defeat his arch enemies over the next hill with and when it was time to pay for those weapons, they offered him that he could just give them the rights to prospect for resources on his land, or establish a few farms or trading posts and the such. Then European workers moved in to run those businesses and they brought their families with them and then a few soldiers too to protect them and their investments and over time they started running everything. Only when there were uprisings and rebellions and atrocities against those white settlers and workers, then European armies were brought in to establish law and order. That is what European colonialism actually looked like and only because that was forgotten and replaced with silly myths about white people just coming in and randomly shooting everyone, as if they were the Mongolian Golden Horde, people falsely think that what China is doing now is any different or better and so those soon to be re-colonized people are doomed to repeat the same mistakes their ancestors made 300+ years ago. The story of colonialism has always been and still is a story of greedy, naive and corrupt local leaders selling out their homelands and their fellow tribes-people to shifty businessmen for personal gains.
