After reading this story, I am left wondering what is the end game for the Chinese as it relates to Africa. Its no wonder that Africa remains poor because they for centuries have allowed foreigners like China to exploit their resources.
Many people believe that the endgame for China is to make a whole lot more money and to gain control over a whole lot more resources. And China is undoubtedly pursuing those goals, but as Forbes has noted, ultimately what this is about is turning Africa “into another Chinese continent”…
The reason Chinese corporations are in Africa is simple; to exploit the people and take their resources. It’s the same thing European colonists did during mercantile times, except worse. The Chinese corporations are trying to turn Africa into another Chinese continent . They are squeezing Africa for everything it is worth.
