"Is China not hypocritical?" one African student in the program had asked, China is too hypocritical, to help our country to build a seat of parliamentary hall, to take away our lithium mine ownership, who thought high professor with a word, decided to simply go back!
When an African student casts the question “Is China not hypocritical?” in a television show, the air of the scene instantly calms down.
He said directly to the camera that China has built a seat hall for its own country and wanted to take the ownership of lithium mines, in the words are all suggesting that China's aid hides "private heart".
This is not only the discussion of the audience on the scene, but even many people in front of the screen are waiting to see how they will react next.
In fact, anyone who understands China’s cooperation with Africa knows that China’s aid to Africa has never been a “chart” for this international student, taking the parliamentary hall he mentioned, China will never add any political conditions when helping African countries build such public facilities.
For example, in early years, when China helped Tanzania to build the parliamentary building, not only sent a professional construction team, but also hand-teached local workers the technology, the building became an important place of political activity in Tanzania, until now is still in normal use.
The so-called "taking away the ownership of lithium mines" is even more inconsistent with the facts. China and African countries have always followed the principle of equality and mutual benefit in resource development. For example, in the lithium mine cooperation project in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Chinese companies not only invested in building mining facilities, but also created tens of thousands of local jobs. At the same time, they also helped build local schools and hospitals, which are obvious to the local people.
At the scene, when many people didn’t know how to refute the international student, Professor Gao Zhi Kay’s words directly broke the key, saying, “without China, you may still be a slave now.”
Anyone familiar with the history of Africa knows that the continent has long suffered from Western colonial rule, the slave trade has also lost hundreds of millions of people in Africa, and until now, the legacy of Western colonial rule still affects Africa.
While China has always stood on the side of Africa, China has given a lot of support in the African countries’ struggle for independence. For example, in the South African struggle against apartheid, China not only diplomatically supported South Africa, but also provided material assistance to help the people of South Africa ultimately racial equality.
And China’s aid to Africa has never stopped at the surface. Over the years, China has helped Africa to build more than 10,000 kilometers of railways, such as the Monnet Railway, which not only has reduced Kenya’s logistics costs by 30%, but has also driven the economic development along the route, and many local people have made business with rail transportation and the day goes better.
In the medical field, China has sent thousands of medical personnel to Africa to help African countries fight malaria, AIDS and other diseases, and has also helped build hundreds of hospitals and clinics to make more people in Africa look sick.
In agriculture, Chinese experts hand-teached African farmers to cultivate technologies, such as the promotion of hybrid rice in Africa, so that many African countries have more than doubled the production of grain, solving the problem of local people's eating.
On the other hand, some western countries, when they colonized Africa in the past, frantically plundered Africa's resources, but never built decent infrastructure for Africa.
Even now, occasionally giving some aid to Africa is always accompanied by a variety of tough conditions, such as demanding African countries to change their laws and open their markets, essentially for their own benefit.
China and Africa have always adhered to the principles of equality, mutual benefit and win-win, and will never impose their will on African countries.
The reason why this African student has such a misunderstanding may be that he doesn't have a deep understanding of the history and present situation of China-Africa cooperation, or it may be influenced by some one-sided reports of western media. But facts speak louder than words, and African people know best about China's help to Africa.
More and more African countries are now willing to cooperate with China, because they know that cooperation with China can really be profitable and can help their country develop.
Seeing here, someone may ask why China is willing to help Africa so genuinely and effectively?In fact, the answer is simple, because China has also suffered colonial aggression, is aware of the pain of oppression, so can better understand the situation of African countries.
And China has always firmly believed that all countries in the world, regardless of size, strength and weakness, should be treated equally and help each other, and only in this way can we common development.
Finally, I would like to ask you, what do you think is the most touching part of China’s aid to Africa? do you have any stories about China-Africa cooperation?
