An African's view of the Chinese in Africa...

In Ghana as in other countries on the continent, the Chinese are here, very visible and very busy.

The relationship between Africa and China is a love-hate one - the love is more on the side of the governments and the hate on the side of business, civil society and the unions.

Don't miss:

  1. 30 Nigerians die in Chinese prisons...
  2. China continues its expansion in Africa...
  3. How China is transforming Africa! Excellent...
  4. China in Africa; certainly NOT a love affair...
  5. Is Africa becoming a Chinese colony?
