Most africans were indeed better under Colonial rule.
I feel sorry for Eddy, he is multilingual (Swahili, French, Mandarin, English and Lingala), I myself am fluent in 5 and my Mandarin speaking is pretty good, traditional characters can be quite tricky since I'm better with Simplified.
This is some retarded shit, the europeans didn't got to Africa to uplift them which is the implication in that video. Most of these countries were made with arbitrarily drawn lines splitting tribes and ethnic groups, uplifting a minority to elite status in one country while oppressing the majority to create a dependency on the colonial power by the ruling minority elite.
That's not even talking about the fact that these countries were extraction economies with no strong democratic institutions in place and whose infastructure were mainly built with the express purpose of shipping of cheap resources and weren't nations that grew naturally on their own with their borders and where their economies were made with express purpose of satisfying the needs of their country and the first world's need for cheap resources. If you want some real analysis of the issues plaguing these countries after colonialism go read Fanon's The Wretched of the Earth rather than watching a 2 minute video by an ignorant gook f*ck.
Everyone has an agenda not understanding is a great way to have others take advantage of you.It isn't that he's ignorant it's that he's speaking the truth. When I speak to Chinese entrepreneurs who frequent Africa, only a few were honest with me.
They tell it's sad how African leaders don't care for education. One guy had a business destroyed and he was a supplier of medical equipment. When you call them Gooks just remember we traded with ancient Chinese merchants in the Somali peninsula and they never brought an Agenda to the region. I'm referring to the Mongol era in China with Zheng He.
As long as education is on the back burner in Africa; the people will never grow. It's the same thing happening in Somalia. There's a whole generation oblivious to education and it's sad that it's desolving any development in the horn.
Between 1405 and 1433, the Ming government sponsored seven naval expeditions. The Yongle Emperor – disregarding the Hongwu Emperor's expressed wishes[52] – designed them to establish a Chinese presence and impose imperial control over the Indian Ocean trade, impress foreign peoples in the Indian Ocean basin, and extend the empire's tributary system.
Indeed, Somalis should have the option to learn Mandarin in the future in sha allah, along with German (2nd most spoken language in the scientific world), Russian, Malay, Portuguese, Japanese, French, Hindi and Spanish.
Arabic, Somali and english must be taught to students during the school years.
