    The coming of India and China in Africa means prosperity for Africans and the end of the Western power era, but it is up to Africans to play a good game so that the continent can benefit something out of it.It is a ashame to the Western countries, they did not help Africa, but ruined it to death; at the same time they humiliated Africans as if they were unhuman and inferior. I was in Africa lately and saw good progress made by Chinese. The greed killed white man

    900 million know way ! more like 1 billion in the next 20 to 30 yrs 1 billion consumers. Watch out people Africa could be the next up and coming China. It would be wise to invest early and get in their as soon as possible. Trade with China will only snowball in the years to come this is when alot of billionaires will be made.

    The pressure is mounting China and India want one Africa. The African nations will eventually have to succumb to this pressure. If they are going to prosper with the vibrant trade going on between China and African nations. One Africa would mean the end of western economic power which is already happening as I type. Wealth is shifting hands along with power Global economics does not benefit the west only developing nations.

    do well unlike what mister mo thinks guinea bissau for example doesen’t need to be as competitive in the world as china it could be like switzerland size and sometimes precarious position (niger, chad admit it your nations are awesome but not the best spot to choose for a country right in the middle of the sahara) The only worry is pan africanism and balancing the relationship with China we both want to benefit not have it one way. If you don’t beleive me look at the recent growth rates.

    This book “Africa Rising” is originally the work of Alexander Petroff. Google it.Anyway the Esoteric Teaching Community have a channel on Youtube as well as their own website community who are successfully implementing these things internationally on a small scale right now.Village Self-Reliance is the only sane way to move forward and create a sustainable world economy.Also recommend “Banker To The Poor: Micro-Lending and the Battle Against World Poverty” by Muhammad Yunus
