    Interesting chat. So basically after 100 years of being exploited by the West, when suddenly there is an alternative on the table, when African nations chose that alternative and seem to have an anti-West sentiment on the way out, those two things aren't connected and it must just be China's fault. Therefore, out of a true concern for Africans, we must raise our concerns about many theoretical concerns that come with the unknown intentions of China with the nations whose true intentions are well known (to exploit resource rich countries with minimal infrastructure benefits for the masses and violently coup governments that don't sufficiently cooperate with corporate America), because they'll totally come to the rescue with the best interests of ordinary African's in mind eh? What a load of bullocks. Call me a pessimist, but I have a sneaking suspicion that if it was a White 5-eyes nation finally coming to the table with new partnership options, not dissimilar to China’s current programs, these two chaps wouldn’t feel a burning desire to write a report about how concerned they are, and instead might even be celebrating that Africa finally has multiple options competing with each other, creating an environment where prospective partners will now have to compete for Africa’s cooperation instead of having a single, brutal, exploitative option.

      "China threat" how concerned they are but for whom? Not Africans that's for sure for shame the west has been brutal and condescending to Africa but they think china will be worse.. How?

    Mr Roets appears to be acting in the greater interest of the US. As much as he is entitled to his opinion, Africa should unshuckle itself from colonial interests and begin to forge relationships which are based on mutual respect. Africa has been a victim of Western exploitation and their suggorate settler population. China offers Africa a chance to progress and should be supported. I agree with the concerns raised by Mr Bernard that lawsa must be followed.

A case fought by Richard Spoor and others to prevent the community being evicted from their land for coal in the nw. It is so atrocious. They were terrorised to leave the land and only won because of a great team to back them. Who knows how long that will able to be sustained
