Stealing Africa - Why Poverty?

Economy | Information | History | Online | Facts | World | Global | Money

1. Former French President Jacques Chirac stated in an interview recently that we have to be honest and acknowledge that a big part of the money in our banks comes precisely from the exploitation of the African continent. In 2008 he stated that without Africa, France will slide down in the rank of a third-world power.
2. African- corruption, tribalism, pure laziness, stupidity and lack of skills are the biggest problems in africa.
   Chinese and white people use you blacks because you are too bloody stupid to do anything yourself.
   White european charities are sending money and people to help you but you are to dumb to learn and only willing to accept handouts. africa is a shithole because of the way blacks are.
   And yes i did spend time in africa in kenya and tanzania so i know the reality.
3. AFRICANS NEED TO GET THEIR SHIT TOGETHER...ALL THESE WHITE DEVILS ARE A CANCER TO HUMANITY
4. Why are you not asking Guy Scott for the Sulphur Emission Numbers? He should obviously have them since Mopani communicates the numbers to ZEMA. Guy should be able to access them. You imply the reported numbers are likely fake at 17:00 - but then drop the issue at 20:00 and never come back to it. Even though both Mopani and Glencore refered you to the Zambian Environmental Agency.
   
   Other than that a very good documentation and I will recommend it to friends.
5. greed is the order of day
6. Prez. of Zambia - We don't have time pushing people
   
   Yeah, I know. Also, you don't have the resources and the necessary technology to do it yourself.
   
   While the West embraced reason and rationality, the renaissance, Africa on the other hand couldn't.
   
   Eventually it got enslaved by the Europeans which I think is a fair deal.
   
   Adapt or be ready to be consumed.
7. The reason of poverty in africa is religion and invasion.
8. Another example of how the US government, among others, have been captured by big money... And this is at the expense of people, especially the poor. Disgusting
9. This is the story of every developing country in the world.😔
10. Could you please conduct the same investigation in the Republic of Kazakhstan and prepare the video? We have absolutely the same situation. Thank you for what you do!
11. hahahah, Im African too, cant find any other way to react whenever i see these stuff
12. it all comes back to education and intelligence. The zambians here have been thoroughly exploited, cheated because of the failure of there education system. Not too long ago I watched another show aired on cable and it showed a bunch of europeans a group of four; one a mechanical engineer, one a explosive expert, another engineer, and some other dude. They came from london, australia and america. They where guided by another englishmam a jewel identifier (or whatever they're called) and he asses the ores to determined their market value. In essence the northern zambians where the mining operations where conducted they made negotiations with the residents. They where looking for emerald and they offered the local miners and their manager low end prices for emeralds and for also utilizing their mines. At the end of each show the jewel specialist would come in and have a little telescope for looking at jewels and he would advise them of there potential. At the end of each show the Africans got robbed. Plain and easy. So they would return to london and have the jewels cut and cleaned up for a proper inspection for a end buying price. In each and every case they made anywhere from 3 times to up to 5+ times their purchasing price back at zambia. Returning back again to africa to mine a new rock.
13. White corporations are buying up resources and enriching themselves. When there's problems with crime they blame the poor. These criminals in power wear expensive suits and they will like you only if you can get what they want. White snakes with money and influence
    Poor countries doesn't have the money to extract oil and other natural resources, so the rich comes in to steal and there by becoming more rich.
    Like the game of monopoly
14. Africa want all the money back that Europeans have stolen since slave trade, colonization till present day. Where is African Union for God sake. Europeans are thieves, any European doing business in Africa should be driven away. They are all thieves, yet when Africans come to Europe they say we are illegal, we are here to get the money the Europeans stole from us. Therefore we are not illegal, they are the illegal entities & thieves. All africans in Europe must unite & organize to demonstrate to stop this stealing from continuing to happen.
15. This is what goes on with all the raw materials in Africa, be it oil in Nigeria with Shell, gold in South Africa, etc
16. the comments are disappointing, a lot of finger pointing at white and black, very little comment on the purposes of taxation.
17. IMF is a thief , they all are white people, all thieves, they work together. We know where the money is, in Zwiterland, we want our money back.
18. Zwiterland is one of the richest countries in the world. The whole country has nothing, only cows & grass, yet they are rich from stealing from poor African countries . What is so annoying they will be giving Africa our money back to us in the form of AIDS. Stupid AIDS, dead AIDS. They are giving us the money they stole from us. They must pay back all the money.
19. Zambia govt & people must sue Glencore & the Zwiterland govt to The Hague court. Woe & the devil decend
20. Why is the Zambia govt still allowing the thief Glencore company continue business? Why is the copper not processed in Zambia? Why is Zambia not taking tax from Glencore?
