Does this mean the Chicoms are going to tear down the airport and take it to mainland China to be rebuilt there?

I would like to see how China intends to keep it if Uganda decides that it was cheated somehow by China and takes it back!

We owe the Chinese big money.

I'd offer them California as collateral.

Screw them. Nationalize it. It’s what commies do, so they’d have to understand.

China is doing this all over the world, basically to take it all over.

For instance, in December 2017, Sri Lanka lost its Hambantota Port to China for a 99-year lease after failing to show commitment in the payment of billions of dollars in loans.

The transfer, according to New York Times, gave China full control of the territory just a few hundred miles off the shores of rival India.

In September 2018, Zambia also lost Kenneth Kaunda International Airport to China over debt gone-wrong. The Chinese lenders were already in control of the country’s state broadcasting company, ZNBC.

China is running this scheme throughout the Third World. The greedy, backward politicians can’t resist the commies’ big bucks, then can’t repay.

Although I hope in this case, just because it’s China, that Uganda defaults and dares China to come take it, this little story is a lesson in life to the left wingers and socialists out there who think they can spend spend spend America’s problems away - Beware easy money - a secured loan means if you default you lose the collateral/security you put up to guarantee payment. How many secured loans does China hold on America?
