Re-colonizing Africa? -- New Internationalist
1.2.12
Re-colonizing Africa? -- New Internationalist: India celebrated Republic Day on 26 January, a national holiday, with impressive parades and much fanfare. Countries that fought colonialism and won their freedom after long and difficult struggles are justifiably proud to show their patriotism.
But yesterday, on the anniversary of Gandhi’s death, I read with anger and dismay newspaper reports in the financial section that the government of India plans to assist Indian companies to lease and buy up land in African countries in order to expand and promote Indian business. In other words, we are now moving to exploit and colonize poorer countries in the worst imaginable way, in competition with China.
