as good as it is to receive aid and whatever else that comes with it,aid itself can’t be a solution to africas plight.it’s downside is that it creates a culture of total dependency and destroys initiative.africa has alot of minerals and yet so poor.why is this so?
Slavery
Colonization
Curropt Leaders
Are obvious reason to long to explain but here are the new ones:
UNFAIR TRADE/ Profiting off poverty, After decolonization
Due to the low currencys (leaders bought wepons to keep power from other ethnic groups which Europeans put together from the world bank loans and created debt- low currency) no business interest were favorable making these countries simply dependent on the outside world/ western world. So desperate that they control the prices of what Africa sells. IE London determines the price it buys goods from Africa exports. Since when do you walk in a shop and say how much you are going to buy an item?? Unfair right. But theres no choice as without it they will become even poorer. Profiting from poverty.
MEDIA After decolonization
Other than the debts which some are ending media is a new source of deterring business interest in Africa. By portraying Africa as filled with poverty ridden countries filled with high crime disease poor infrastructure and backwards. This makes people even think twice of going there let alone do business there. As long as the business interest are kept low can Africa keep being dependent on the Western world leaders who simply profit from poverty. They make the rules and all the decisions and play the corrupt African leaders like puppets.
Western world gives these African leaders money which they can keep all to themselves as long as they give the western world what they want either way they have to obied to western world as no one wants to do business in Africa because of what they see so the western world leaders are their only option.
They will not allow a clever person to be a leader of an African country or let them do clever decisions because as long as there is chaos in Africa can they keep the negative media resulting in no business and dependency on western world leaders alone!
Oh and middle men of African exports make 1/3 of the whole profits alone. Charities and other things go through the world banks which again the western world controls takes out a percentage for who knows takes a percentage for the debts also then gives the rest to those corrupt leaders so they can make stupid decisions put it in their personal banks or buy more weapons and keep Africa in chaos!
Chaos in Africa= Profitsin the Western World
I only found this out when I went to Africa a few weeks ago its shocking information I wish I could tell you all but it is very long and we are not living in a good world at all its sick how they hide it from our eyes here but they know what is really going on fooling us.
I support Africa getting business interest from China which media again is trying to put Africans themselves off but lucky thing they dont live by western world media and hope Africa- Asia trade will help both create equality in this world.
Western worlds clock is ticking every civilization has its prime and its collapse I just wonder who next the communists, muslims I doubt its Africa you may not know it but this world lives off Africa but will the western world allow it to happen well never know!
