Based Tanzania BTFOING CHINA
Good job, Deutsch-Ostafrika, good job.
Won't China just fund his opposition or rebel groups?
Sounds like a pretty unwise thing to do to be honest
>Magufuli a demigod
What sort of organization writes like this? It's like one of those Trump sites.
Not a good look. China has been funding public works projects in developing countries to cultivate a positive image and build allies. The upside is better infrastructure for Africa, the downside is that you’re in debt to China and they can influence you however they want.
>Won't China just fund his opposition or rebel groups?
Tanzania is stable and has no terror/rebel groups despite being a country with over 120 ethnicities (mainly thanks to the commie dictator that sort of fucked up the industry but united all the tribes so they don't kill eachother)
It has always had a normal transfer of power
Compared to Ethiopia Tanzania is stable and fine
>Sounds like a pretty unwise thing to do to be honest
Why?
The Chinese didn't listen to his negotiations.
>However, after coming to power, President Magufuli initiated the renegotiation process and pressed the investors to bring down the lease period to 33 years instead of 99 years signed by the previous government.
>Magufuli administration also made it clear that there will be no tax or utility exemption for the Chinese investors and they will need government approval to start new operations at the port. However, the investors didn't meet the deadline issued by the Magufuli government, hence, the agreement got cancelled.
Sorry for the brainlet question, but how can China guarantee influence. Couldn't African countries just decide to say no to China's wishes if the want to (as is seen in OP)?
They could always default like Argentina and other countries. Just take out loans. Or accept having hospitals, schools, bridges, roads built, then not pay it.
Nice to see at least one African nation stand up to china, hopefully the rest follow
doubt it, they will more likely just throw down the money to neighboring countries and skip them. Tanzania also wants debt relief to fight covid19, so i think they'll get blow back from this.
That's the American way.

Africa has been saying "fuck China" for the past month or so. They're fed up. Chinese people are actually being deported.
Now that China is out, which country will step in and exploit them?
>mainly thanks to the commie dictator
I think dictatorships are best for Africa. All of the most successful, safest countries in Africa have been run by lunatics. Rwanda went from a life expectancy of like 20 to around 70 within ten years because of their dictator.

Certain countries like Kenya and a lesser extent Namibia are just bitches to china mainly due to being easily bought, Kenya has a history of corruption and will probably only get a bit better if the entire country gets reformed.
Another problem is western countries/corpartations don't want to invest in africa.
There is a shift to the east but this shift is only happening because Chinese companies are the only ones really giving a damn about Africa and are making a lot of money from it.
It's not bad but at the same time it isn't good if your country is mainly influenced by one nation.
I watched a video of a white businessman on YouTube talk about it but can't remember the name of the video.

In a sense your correct, Botswana although a democracy has only had one ruling party and it has grown tremendously.
The problem is most African dictators are batshit crazy, from Mobutu's ziare to the central African republic's monarch.
Yes but the political gains of being the president who got your country’s roads fixed can be very potent
Glad to see Africans standing up to China
They’re even imprisoning Chinese and deporting them back to their bat-eating shithole
Maybe one day they can overthrow the French too
Based, not my money tho.
absolutely based, kind of cool to see africa getting its act together within my life time
>kind of cool to see africa getting its act together within my life time
hahahaha
CIA backroom deal for propaganda purposes. 100%
/thread
Tanzania already sorta hated China already and the government warned the Chinese months ago but the chinks did nothing
Cope
>hahahaha
Why are you laughing boyo
>The upside is better infrastructure for Africa
Better by what standards? Even in China, public infrastructure works constantly collapse. And I'm pretty sure there was an African country (Kenya?) where the Chinese were supposed to modernize the British built railways but the whole thing ended up costing way, way more than projected.
Falling for China's debt traps is indeed something only a drunkard can accept. Sadly it appears Greece and Italy are run by drunkards.
*sane dictators
Do we really need to remind you of the unhinged cartoon watching fuck who insisted he controlled the weather and beasts?
>boyo
simmer down ngubu, just dont think we'll be seeing the continent of africa get its shit together during our lifetime
>Even in China, public infrastructure works constantly collapse.This isn't true at all and is only based on your meme webms
you can say no respectfully and you can be an ameridog
