China and Africa
March 20th, 2007An interesting piece at the Asia Times Onlines:
Emperor Hu’s new clothes for Africa
The whole China-in-Africa thing is hard for me to get my head around. On the one hand, investment is the best medicine for Africa. On the other hand, well, Darfur.
I guess saying “China is footing the bill for Darfur” would be deliberately provocative, so, “China is footing the bill for Darfur.”
We’ll see, I guess.
