China in push for resources in Guinea

The military-backed government of Guinea, one of the poorest states in West Africa, is negotiating with a Chinese fund to bring in billions of dollars of financing for infrastructure and minerals projects – and to prospect for oil.

Talks could be concluded by the end of the year, according to Mohamed Thiam, the country’s minister of mines, potentially pitching Chinese interests directly against those of the west at a time of growing competition for African resources.

Is it just me or is China all over Africa these days??:naughty:

They must be the most willing to invest to get the raw materials out

No.it's not you. they are all over Africa and they really do not care about the environment ( I mean indirectly). The african leaders will ruin their own countries to sell whatever they can. They are cutting down trees like crazy without thinking about long-term implications...( just one example).

I agree Burgundia. They are willing to pollute their land, water, and air, not to mention the poisoning of their own people. All for our consumption.:thumbdown:

I don't drink green tea. I tried but I wasn't feeling well afterwards...what is good for some doesn't have to be good for me. the same with red tea. However i can drink black tea and I am fine.
