Sports / Re: Enyeama's Error Cost Nigeria - Keshi by chinaman666(m): 3:42am On Jul 01, 2014 |
As a Chinese soccer fan, I was absolutely amazed by how well Enyeama played. If anything, he kept Nigeria in the game. The fact that Enyeama had to make so many saves was itself the result of a weak Nigerian backfield. The mistake that led to the first goal was simply the effect of Enyeama being worn down by so many French shots. And for a coach to say that about his (perhaps his best) player, it's disgraceful. |

Foreign Affairs / Re: Ghanaian - Nkrumah Is Greater Than Mandela by chinaman666(m): 5:39pm On Dec 13, 2013 |
As a Chinese, I have been to South Africa recently only to find the country still dominated economically and technically by its white citizens and white expats. The Chinese, along with the black South Africans, were victims of apartheid, and I couldn't help but feel disappointed that following the beginning of black rule in SA, more redistribution wasn't done. I give props to Mandela for his struggle for equality, however the West celebrate him for his leniency for the former white oppressors. I believe that leniency was excessive. Sure, they shouldn't be massacred. But their ill-gotten wealth must be redistributed to the land's original inhabitants! If China was under apartheid, and Mandela was Chinese and did in China what he actually had done in SA, there's no question that the Chinese would consider him a traitor who failed to bring the Chinese full justice. No people should tolerate that their resources and their modes of production are solidly in the hands of outsiders, while their children lack the hope for a brighter future. 4 Likes |

BBC and CNN are nothing but pure biased garbage. You'll never see anything postive about Africa or China from those two networks. I'd take RT and Al Jazeera over them any day. |

Instead of feeling sympathy at a fellow Nigerian's hardship at a foreign land and the predicament he now finds himself after an unfortunate incident, most of the commenters are wishing him ill. SMH for humanity. 1 Like |

Prostitution services can only command the kind of prices they do BECAUSE prostitution is a scarce resource. If it is legalized, and if there is no more shame associated with prostitution, its cost will crash down dramatically. Basic supply and demand. 2 Likes |

Christianity makes no sense. In the Old Testament, the Israelites were punished for not completely committing genocide to their "enemies" as decreed by their god. In the New Testament, we're told to love our enemies and turn the other cheek. |

The poor treatment of non-European immigrants by Italy is also to blame. The ugly intolerance of the average Italian has come to haunt them. Karma's a bi+ch. |
Politics / Re: Nigerians, Others To Close Businesses In Zimbabwe By January 2014 by chinaman666(m): 5:52pm On Nov 24, 2013 |
nero69: I think the old fool in correct on this one...what will majoriyy of the locals engage in if you allow chinaman to start selling akara by the road side? Seven eleven is a multinational retail store that runs 24/7 services. In thailand, the government ordered them to stop selling alcholic bev from 11am till 2pm...then stop again from 12midnight till 11am. This is to enable the local shop do some marketing...so oga mugubay got this right. In most asian countries foreigners are not allowed to open provision stores. If chinamen can sell akara cheaper and in better quality, I'm sure most Nigerians (except for akara vendors) would welcome this. |

Haha, Nigerians are the Chinese of Africa. Anyway, there's an easy solution to this, marry Zimbabweans, so that it becomes Zimbabwean-owned but remains controlled/managed by the foreign spouse. With poverty so widespread in that country, anyone with money should be attractive to Zimbawean ladies. |

Politics / Re: The Richest Square Mile In Africa (pics) by chinaman666(m): 8:38pm On Nov 18, 2013 |
CraigB: By allowing foreign businesses and foreign talent in a developing country, the potential benefit would be to force indigenous firms and people to compete at a higher level as to meet the higher standards (improved efficiency, organization, professionalism). However, this is assuming that the indigenous workers and firms are in a position to compete. For many developing countries, this has not been the case, and free market reforms failed to end poverty for the most part. It is up to the government to protect and incubate the indigenous industries so that they can develop to a point of competitiveness. But it has to be a balance; without any outside competitive pressure, it would be naive to assume that local industries would improve efficiency on its own. My own take on Nigeria (could be totally wrong, only from what I perceived) is that the government here impose an all-or-nothing approach to protectionism. The government either protects the industry completely from outside competitive pressure, thus forming a monopoly, for example import restrictions (e.g. pasta or cement) or exclusive import restrictions (e.g. refined gasoline), or allows the Western firms to have its way with no indigenous competition now or in the forseeable future (e.g. oil drilling/exploration). |

CraigB: It's a shame that the legacies of colonialism (not only in Africa, but also in Asia and Latin America) exist today not only in the form of economic inequalities, but worse, in the mind of the victims of colonialism. An inferiority complex is still prevalent in much of the non-Western world, but more and more people are waking up to it, as they're participating more in the economy and becoming more educated. I'm not saying that places like Sandton should be linquidated to help the poor South Africans. Instead, they should be preserved as the business hubs that they are. However, South Africa must do a better job of redistributing its wealth so that the children of the poor can have a chance at a quality education and a chance for professional employment. |

I'm Chinese, lived in the US, proud to speak Chinese everywhere... Anyway, I just want to know if this is mainly a problem that affect Igbos (since most of the stories here concern this group) or do other ethnic groups (especially Yorubas) feel the same shame towards their mother tongue? I would ask my Nigerian colleagues if this question weren't so sensitive and potentially offensive. Thanks. |

Chinese and Nigerians are very similar. Both groups are hustling in every country on Earth. And both groups are often hated by the people of the countries that they settle in. I guess it's because of this understanding that Chinese don't feel much hate in Nigeria and Nigerians don't feel much hate in China. 3 Likes |

As Chinese, I must emphasize: This is Hong Kong, not mainland China. The culture there is somewhat different than that of most of China. I wouldn't expect this to be possible on the mainland. But regardless, this guy is a disgrace to Chinese men and to men everywhere. How can a man kneel and cry like a baby while his gf yanks him by the hair and slaps around in public?
