Sure, the Chinese gain something but the fact of the matter is Ghanaian Politicians from both sides of the 2 leading political parties are heavily behind the illegal mining and the Chinese are their lead partners....

Some of the Politicians especially the Local assembly executives give them the protection.

There's more to it than what you see in the media.... For a Rulling Government to say their Party needs money and all of a sudden more than half of their party executives are indulging in illegal mining! that alone should tell you the Chinese are just a cover up

A normal day in Africa i say

We have gone through Nigeria in 10,000 pages. Conclusion you're one hopeless insecure and undeveloped country despite OIL, so much arable land, so much mineral despotis and name it. You're more DRC than any other country in Africa. I dont see any hope for your country - the problems besetting your are gigantic - fix insecurity first - then fix basic education - then fix health - and then maybe we can start to talk about having budget commensurate with 200M people.

Kenya is one Africa most progressive nations - 89 percent semi-arid - without any minerals - and yet it kick it arse - not in few sectors like Nigeria - but in nearly all sectors - kenya sits as the undisputed regional giant.

obaaderemi:
You've started your nonsense again.
If Nigeria didn't have brilliant progressive people, then what do you think is holding the country up until now?
Nigerian firms are some of the largest in Africa ( some of them even own companies in Kenya), Nigeria's agriculture while still seriously backward still leads in the production of certain crops in Africa ( I think we lead in onions and mangoes, not to talk of rice, yams, cassava, poultry, etc), our ICT is behind only South Africa, in banking we are behind only south Africa and maybe a couple of North African countries, our universities rank well too... in education, our graduates do well in and outside Nigeria, we even have a higher doctor to population rate than many African countries including Kenya.

So, only a madman would compare such a country to Dr Congo or even Zimbabwe. Despite our numerous negative issues. The last person to be giving advice here is a Kenyan whose country despite a small population still find it difficult to make headways.

You should see Lagos CBD - it's like Gikomba market.

One thing I don't get is why you always posting other countries trying to compare them with Kenya. I've noticed this with with the Ghanians too. Is it that there is no meaningful development over there that you have to steal other countries achievements. No wonder your countrymen are killing each other and doing all sorts of rituals just to get to foreign land. The truth be told, no sane Nigerian outside this thread can dare open their mouth and defend that mess of a country.

Dont ever compare any Ghana salary with Kenya. There is a reason why kenya proffesional do not emigrate abroad in such numbers as Ghana.

A medical intern in kenya earns more than any of your doctors. They start at 2,000usd in medical internationship per month - that is 24,000 per year

An internship license issued by the Kenya Medical Practitioners and Dentists Board is necessary to work as an intern doctor. As per the structure of doctors’ salaries, intern doctors salary in Kenya starts from KSH 207,000 per month inclusive of allowances.

You're wrong. This one of reason Japan and Germany missed the train - by focusing on hardware- and US left them in their trails. Both Japan and Germany were really trailing the US economy but as we speak - Japan GDP is now 4 times less than US.

There is so much you can innovate at hardware level. There is very little you can do to improve hardware but software is pretty much infinite space for innovation and problem solving.

mtisTheQubit:


Hmmm ..Hardware vs. software . Of course, software controls the hardware, thus every hardware company must have a software division.
However, what I see in Africa, particularly in startups, is an idea centered solely on applications.
If we're only talking about software, India should be at the top of the chain. The majority of the key systems we use were created by an Indian dude somewhere in India.Native Indians make up a fourth of Microsoft's workforce.In fact, half of IBM's workforce is based in India.We can see the difference between China and India if we compare the two.
The hardware technology was primarily replicated by China.The vast majority of IP raised in China is hardware-based. Consider the case of Cisco vs. Huawei.
Some say that any dick and harry can go on the internet and become a software development genius. I told myself most of the languages I used. Most people, in fact, educate themselves to program.
My issue, for example, is that our startups are solely focused on app development.I used to go to ihab and just saw designers there, not true devs. I hope that has changed now.The majority of people in today's world use tools.I don't even need to know how to code.
For example, if I truly wanted to hack you, I'd go to the dark web and buy professional hacking tools. That's how it works, man.
As a result, hardware production is critical for any country's development.What Japanese or German apps do you use? But look at their economies.
By and large, Silicon Valley focuses on design, with actual manufacturing taking place in Asia. Any IC in your device was most likely made in Taiwan...fact.Even iPhones are made by a Taiwanese company, Foxcon.
Hardware silicon valley is displacing silicon valley.Guesse where it is.Shenzhen ,a Chinese city.People are migrating there because of the ecosystem, much as people went to Silicon Valley in California because of the same eco system.

The same religious books that claim

virgin birth
splitting a sea in two
A snake that turns into a staff


And a clear underlying tone of hate towards the Canaanites clearly showing the religion to be a tool for conquering other lands and not an actual religion for progress

And that is apart from the clear Misogynistic views spread withih the Bible


Plus we're in the age of science and not religion, science has proven the earth isn't flat and it's as easy as that

Come on, tell us about your religion. Is it not the traditional one that supports homosexuality? Have you ever wondered why most people are triggered when a blbile is mentioned..for example, an atheist..a dude who will spend his entire life fighting the existence of God..his entire life.. I mean, I should be frying beans and doing other things. There is also a link between atheism and homosexuality...no apologies bro...
So just believe what you want and let others believe what they want...that it's simple unless you're paid to whine about others.
In fact, it's the same as gay folks..you keep whining about the situation..no one cares..just do your thing and shut up.

So the verse where St Paul says women should be quiet in church and the other verse where is says women should be obedient and subservient to their husbands wasn't mysognistic to you?

I mean I don't blame you it is up for interpretation but for me i'd rather more Africans become open to traditional religions and beliefs which have been ransacked and dirtied by Christianity and Islam

nope, since the bible also talks about men being obedient and submitting themselves to there wives.

Maybe read the full verse instead of paraphrasing a couple of words and taking them out of context.

I think if you restrict the debate to computer hardware - then you'll realize India v China is pretty close - if you're talking manufacturing as whole - China of course is far more advanced.

Japan and Germany were very close to US in 199/1980s - what changed the fortunes of each - the information technology revolution - US went big on software - Germany and Japan went big on hardware. US as we speak is now 4 times bigger than Japan. In 1990s - it was almost at bar.

In 1995 - Japan GDP was 5.5B and US was merely 7.7B - then software revolution happened in the US creating lots of wealth - and now US has GDP 20B - and japan is stuck at 7B.

Hardware is very hard to innovate, and is easy to replicate.

Check who are the billionaires - software guys solving problems with existing hardware. Bill gates started making tonnes of money without ever building any hardware.

Even Huawei got a new shinny O. S, which isn't a big deal, but they can't manufacture the hardware component to run their devices.

Your medical doctors every year vote with their feet and cross seas to work abroad. Those who cant run to South Africa. Kenya proffesional pay is very competitive. What your doctors earn is what nurses get paid.
