Show me anyone who didn’t lose money on Africa? What makes the Chinese special?
China will prop up those dictators and get resources like oil, gold, 99 year leases on prime property, etc. for repayment...they thought this out.
RE: Show me anyone who didnt lose money on Africa? What makes the Chinese special?
I think there is a method to China’s madness. They KNOW that the leaders of most African countries are either corrupt or ignorant and the money they loaned out will not be repaid. However, they do have COLLATERAL built into their agreements.
TO make a long story short — If you fail to pay back the loan, we take control of this resource ( e.g. rail, port, precious metals mine, etc. )
