I should not be surprised at the influx of CHinese business people in Africa.
Over the last five to ten years, America and Europe have left a void in:
Somalia, The Democratic Republic of Congo, and the Sudan.
Now that CHina has grown exponentially, they need the resources that Africa has.
So what does China do?
They hire contractors to manage their African holdings. CHina was bold enough to do business with the Arab government in Sudan, while international pressure was at its
highest - no wonder the Sudanese government did not relent with its genocide/holocaust
of the blacks in Darfur- they had all of the resources/trade agreements they needed from China.
Although CHina's influence in Africa provides them with a wealth of resources, black Africans
do not benefit since they are not hired to manage CHinese holdings - this is where the
big money is.

Until African governments place incentives or boundaries on who should be allowed to
manage or work in CHinese firms, the average black African will suffer economically.
