11. Chinese Neo-Colonialism in Africa
• China has literally invaded Africa with its investors, traders, lenders,
builders, developers, laborers and who knows what else. The fancy
phrase for that is win-win cooperation. The “cooperation” has opened
up Africa as a source of raw materials for China and a dumping
ground for cheap Chinese manufactured goods. It is Chinese
neocolonialism.
(Mariam, 2017)

12. China’s Neocolonial Strategy: A New Silk
Road into Africa
• China aims to replicate its Central Asia “Silk Road Economic Belt” strategy in Africa (“road
and belt (sea and land)”. That strategy has two components: 1) development of overland
infrastructure throughout Africa and 2) expansion of maritime over the Indian and Atlantic
Oceans (transporting Chinese goods to East, South and West Africa.) For instance,
China plans to use the $3.2 billion Kenya rail line to eventually connect “Uganda,
Rwanda, South Sudan and Ethiopia, placing Kenya at the center of an East African rail
network. Ultimately, China aims to create satellite states that orbit around the Chinese
economy. Such are three pillars of Chinese neocolonialism in Africa!

14. Ending and Solutions…
• Need strong central government.
• Reduce export dependence.
• Rapid economic growth and capital accumulation.
• Increase government expenditure and cope with costs of rapid
urbanization and provisions of social income in education,
health, and welfare.
(Parenti, 2011)
