The leader sold the country for its own selfishness.
Politicians are salesmen, and all they have in inventory is their own country.
It's shameful that people are not mentioning the reason why economic sanction was put in Zimbabwe. If you really care for Zimbabwe people talk to those evil countries that place sanction on Zimbabwe taking food away from children. Now I have to ask did anyone knows why economic sanction was put in Zimbabwe and what is the benefit of putting sanction on a country?
@@flydragon5208 Above news is related to China and Zimbabwe ... Didn't you get it ?? :D

This is what happens in CPEC Pakistan too. But they are afraid to admit it. Pakistanis have become 2nd class citizens in their own country 😭
Agreed, but the Chinese love calling everyone who doesn't agree with them "Racist". when in fact they are the most Racist!

So what's the difference between what China is doing to Zimbabwe compared to what they are doing to the Uighur Muslims inside of China?

Why does no one ever ask for the opinions of Africans in these things. It’s easy to sit in the developed world with electricity, water and everything and complain why people halfway across the world are selling their countries to China when in reality the Chinese deals are better than everything Europe has brought

Politics aside, not a single forklift operator was looking in reverse OR wearing reflective clothing. Pedestrians without reflective gear walking in tennis shoes near a forklift in motion. These images are enough to conclude leadership is not present at any level.

No one is forced to work. People are in charge and can shut any corporation down.
That's how China knows how to treat employees. This is the condition in sweat shops in China as well, where their own citizens work. They are not to be blamed if they know no better
And knowing this people around the world continue to buy cheap, shoddy goods and knock-offs from.
@@jen9774 that's capitalism for you
So who is to be blamed for their madness?
@@femioyekanmi2746 it was a sarcastic comment... The producers of goods are to be blamed more here, considering they offered the goods at those prices while they factored in the exploitation of their own labour force

And let's not forget last year during the pandemic the whole "Let's do tests in Africa" thing.
You wont see malema talk about this, ever
Exactly. I would love to know how much China was involved with the latest insurrection in South Africa
Don't expect yellow to turn multi coloured like a rainbow.
A report like this should bring the world together against China’s evil ways! …..ps. Doesn’t the CCP always complain about nations interfering in their internal affairs? How does what they are doing around the world in 3rd world countries not constitute “interfering in internal affairs”
Well, they didn't put a gun to old Bobby's head and make him sign and accept the loans.

I wonder if we are learning bcos now in South Africa Chinese are opening businesses like nobody's business.I wonder if they are taking over my country?
Brilliant, Palki. Thank you.
China strictly restricted Praying Namaz during 12 hours of a shift. Requested person immediately dismissed from the service with all dues. No mercy and even request of Minister is rejected at once.
Fast forward twenty years and this'll be the USA, Canada, Australia, etc.
Next year.
There was an old saying. " Never accept gifts from Greek or gypsies". Update and China.
@Alejandro- is it, your allusion?
the nation is between rock and hard place, you wish it opts for suicide!
No matter what the stakes are, Zimbabwean government should push back China, not engage in new deals and payback Chinese loans by refinancing them from other reliable world partners.
If Zimbabwean government will not bother about the well being of its citizens and stand up for them, China will continue to treat them like slaves.
And who will help us when no one else even tried at least China gave us money though it was taken by corrupt pols
Zimbabwean people need to build their own economy

Exactly. I agree with you.
If The African state's allow Chinese to work their people at Low wages how then are Taxes generated for Zimbabwe to repay these great Debts they need initiate legislation to protect their workers from such Crude and Rude Chinese employer's creating state owned Labor Unions protecting worker's Rights
How can a leader allow this to happen to his own people. It's unbelievable.
The government they don't care this people there interest is to feed their families
China has left human tendencies behind.
is that the reason they took lot of BAT blood - 18 months back ?
Show chyna the door……..simple and eazy….don’t be slaves anymore
@Ahjot Ahjotson quite lying. China is showing how they are using Africans for cheaplabor and a healthy gain for assets for themselves.
China has taken over Africa as a continent. Paul Theroux highlighted this years ago as he travelled through. The Africans, educated by the West, left for the West. I can't remember the title of the book. This report confirms everything he said. Bravo.
It's far worse than that. I know a Zimbabwean who told me the brick manufacturer he work for locked them in the factory all week, they slept on mats and never bathed until their shift week ended. But most alarmingly, injured staff never went to hospital, they just disappeared, never to be seen again.
Communist china exploiting workers and blaming Zimbabwean trade unions of bullying them...
Irony killed itself.
covaxin has a calf urine in it, i read somewhere in news reporting like wion they also mentioned that covaxin efficacy rate is around 10%.
Where are the BLM now.
This Lady is On Point , Best Reporter of 2O21.
My mother worked for a Chinese textile company for 25 years. I remember how they reused needles and syringes for their workers. I still see in my mind's eye, the machine sterilizing them in the company's clinic. Those in the spinning department always had respiratory issues. I remember the owner's dog getting better food and treatment than the workers. Now my country is making scarier deals with the Chinese every day. May God help Ghana.
Damn
This is the future of the African continent if they keep accepting Chinese loans.
Very sad.
I feel sorry for Zimbabwe 😔😔
The CCP is that best at this kind of bullying.
How is it that I, a South African, has to hear from an Indian news station what China is doing in the country next door?
Because our "leaders" have sold our country to the CCP too ...
@hannodb- plausibly your news stations and medias aren't unveiling the truth?
@@ngkeam9491 Our media has their noses burried so deep inside the rear end of the ANC government, its hardly surprising.
Trade unions & china's communism dont go side by side 😂😂😂
They want this for the whole world till we are all dead! Insanity!
How in the world has Zimbabwe allowed this to happen? What is wrong with the leaders. Did you not learn from the Rhodesian War? Corruption on the rise at the expense of its people. This is a disaster and ashame.
Africa so call leaders never learn
Zimbabwe needs to work really hard to recover from economic collapse.
This is just the beginning of the Chinese movie. Much more to be seen in the future.
Zimbabwe has vast amounts of natural resources. Those resources should be used for the benefit of Zimbabweans, not for the benefit of a few corrupt leaders of a foreign power.
Sounds like China remembers how England used to be when they ruled the waves. Shame they don't realise you can't be like that nowadays.
China :;As United Nations permanent member puts sanctions
Also china :: let's make a deal Zimbabwe and put them in a debt trap
They need to take back their country and nationalize those companies, looks like they are trying to get Australian stuff on the cheap from Zimbabwe. The WTO needs to act and stop these practices as Trade should come at a price a fair one - not the price of life.
They are making Zimbabwe citizens as a second class …no no third class citizens in their own country
Years ago I looked up Sudan and learned that Chinese oil exploration engineers were behind a move to cut a swath all the way to the Mouth of the Congo River.
Omg!!! wtf
It would help to have a map dotted with the intensity of Chinese monetary control as understood by WION with such news, keeps giving a glance of the big picture or rather a clearer picture!
Same thing has happened in Jamaica
Going on all over the world

This is what happens when you DO NOT use wisdom when dealing with nations. I blame the leaders of Africa for this taking place.
Both sides of this issue have acted without care.
Zimbabwe/Africa this is your making. You have to solve those issues.
China even did the same and still is doing the ill-treatments to Pakistanis on the BRI projects in Pakistan.
They will miss the Yankee once they know the Mandarin.
Rock bottom was three floors up 🙏🤣👌
I'm sure they have labor laws. Fine them for every offense. Nickel and dime them like they do everyone else.
Remember whenn Kenyans accused chinese of racism and neo colonialism? Western media ignored it
I don't find much difference between western countries policy towards African countries and Chinese policies. The only difference in style. One uses the bullet and the other slow poison.

@@anu1139 And that's why India is constantly being hit with chaos and calamity one after another because you people have no idea your country is targeted and you can thank Palki for keeping your people in the dark.
If My sisters and brothers are not willing to go without . Then they will suffer. Stop working period. All must be on board for this to work. If Africa cannot stand united then divided they will fall. As a Diasporan this breaks my heart.
And they were against Ian Smith of the old Rhodesia 😇
If Africans don’t have a problem , why do you??. Don’t worry about other countries, your focus should building India only!
It's a news channel!! It's their job to report on happenings around the world! Just like other international channels report on happenings in India. Do you also tell them about focusing on their own problems first?
You are very strong lady. God Bless.
Same thing Going on in jamaica right now
Hi Palki only recent weeks I have been watching your news. You are doing a fantastic job, I love to listen you news and now days I am addicted to watch and listen to your news. Great Job and keep moving forward Palki.
Cry the Beloved Motherland. Very painful to watch. I was watching Zambia but this makes me want to throw up. 😥😥😨😨
Time Done
I agree. You simply cannot give democracy to more than 1 billion people. India is an example.
When the rest of the world is creating devastation for the people of Zimbabwe, the Chinese came to help, the difficulties are still there and yet people pretend the difficulties are caused by the helping hand instead of the sanctions.
One option is to let the Chinese finish all the projects and then default on the loans. Thanks China.
Zimbabwe has lost 20 million people, which is a terrible number. It's time to reveal the story behind it!
Lol 20 million people
Are you mad😂that country aint india
,We Africans should start to take responsibilities of industrializing ,instead of waiting for the Chinese ,and the west to bring jobs to us.
This is where Thomas Sankara had the right idea.
China and Zimbabwe need to fix this issue.
They wanted us white Zimbabweans out, now they have the Chinese government to contend with. Thankfully my family and I got out a decade ago. I mourn for my country and former life but the Zimbabwe I knew doesn’t exist any longer. It was a wonderful country once upon a time 😢
