Not at all surprising. The Chinese supported Mugabe in the bush war, they have tied up all the diamond mining and now moving into farmland. They already own large chunks of Zambia and I think Tanzania.

Story is dated Sept 2016.
What I have read lately is that the Chinese have kind of pulled the plug on mining and raw materials and are accumulating great indebtedness by doing big infrastructure projects since most commodity prices are down.
Either way they end up owning the country.

"Indebtedness" is not a concept that's well understood in Africa - most African governments will either simply not pay - or nationalise.

Very true Ian, but then the Chinese will quit sending them AK’s and RPG’s to suppress the dissent! The shit cycle just never ends...

buying to take countries over is not investing.
they're buying space to put their expanding populations.

In most African countries you cannot acquire land unless you are a citizen and in a number of cases even citizenship will not qualify you to be a landowner. Wink

The Chinese are smarter than you think; where land is concerned they mainly lease, produce crops which they export back to China to feed the starving multitudes and possibly even stockpile - this has become the popular trend in Tanzania.

China has been involved in African Politics for ions..They have manipulated wars in the past, instigated Mau Mau and what not..Communism once flourished in North Africa, maybe still does, don't know..but Im sure they won't go away.

I'm in Zimbabwe now. One of the topics of conversations with several people is the Chinese "buying up" Zimbabwe. They will be here until nothing remains to be taken.

The Chinese are also buying up the USA my friend! Many ranches including my sisters huge ranch have been bought by Chinese over the last couple of years, they hardly even negociate price. She gave them a price, they said no and she turned around and walked out, apparently to their surprise, they caught her at her car and agreed on her price..They got the bucks to spend apparently. They are buying up a lot of Texas for sure..Many of the big West Texas ranches are purchased and the owner are allowed to remain and ranch it until they die in some cases..

They have a lot of those, thanks to all the American (and European) industries that moved to China for its cheap labor and purchase of their sub-standard products.

The following links are worth reading:

https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/...or-world-domination/

https://www.forbes.com/sites/p...ts-did/#44169f0f298b


https://www.sofmag.com/chinas-...-military-expansion/

What we have to keep in mind is the tactical significance of Africa, and South Africa in particular.

Read these stories with the RSA land seizures in mind. The ANC is facing the first real challenge to its power in the elections next year, which is the stressor. Same as with Mugabe, when he faced a shiny new opposition party for the first time.

But Zimbabwe was not the world's fifth largest gold and diamond producer. Zimbabwe wasn't the world's second largest platinum producer. Zimbabwe hadn't had nuclear capability since the '60s. Zimbabwe didn't have one of the most strategic naval routes in the world. South Africa does. Now, crash it's economy with land seizures, with a huge debt to China hanging over its head. Nothing China is doing is by accident.

No one has to sell to them. Who is the greedy one?

Buying up large tracts of Australian agricultural land too.


The hunting imperative was part of every man's soul; some denied or suppressed it, others diverted it into less blatantly violent avenues of expression, wielding clubs on the golf course or racquets on the court, substituting a little white ball for the prey of flesh and blood.
