Remember the dead of Dafur?

 

A Sudanese court has sentenced RSF leader Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo to death over killings in West Darfur. Dagalo, along with two of his brothers and 13 other RSF commanders were convicted over mass atrocities, including crimes against humanity.

China exploiting Africans: and faces worker revolts

 

Ebola? bad outbreak but more die of Malaria and Tb

the problem is that there is war and displacement there, and a distrust of medical personnel.

And maybe I am paranoid but I suspect that the world elite deliberately neglected the epidemic was because USAID was cut maning not a lot of experts earning over 1000 thousand dollars a year instead of paying locals to do pubic health.

China helping modernize Africa

 The iinternet is full of people lamenting hundreds of thousand dying because Turmp cut USAID.

Then you read about USAID people who were fired and lament they no longer make huge salaries and can't find jobs in the USA.

Yup. That is a form of corruption.

So anyway, I posted a bunch of stuff on one discussion group that I will only put here:

A lot of the aid is stolen.
that said, the dirty little secret is that corruption is so common that the amount stolen by crooked politicians and businessmen is more than the amount of foreign aid sent to these countries.
https://www.transparency.org/en/news/where-are-africas-billions
This is just Europeans trying to invoke guilt for Trumpieboy canceling USAID money to NGOs who pay high salaries to outsiders.

And what is not mentioned: Much of the aid from the US is not via the government but via churches and private donations.

So if I send money to an African friend for her nephew's school fees, or send donations to a missionary or church who I know will put it to use, or if my stepdaughter donated time helping to start a handicraft business in Uganda, none of those donations would be counted.h
But what will make Africans rich is investing in modern things such as modern agriculture, local factories, computers, cellphone banks, etc. And China is doing a lot of this.

My suggestion. Show them how to use ChatGPT on their cellphones so they can look up how we created the modern world, and copy us. They don't even have to invent anything.

  they are alrthey are already doing this but the MSM only prints the bad stuff, and the NGOs are too busy pushing you to feel guilty and send them money that you never hear about the success stories.

  And a lot of what is going on economically is by China.
  The dirty little secret is that western NGOs want to support traditional ways. China goes in and changes things (while robbing them blind too, but hey the end result is good).

For example . Using cellphones for business is changing the ways Africans buy and sell and bank. https://www.ictworks.org/mobile-phones-catalyzing-african-revolution/
