China sends troops to Djibouti

China sends troops to Djibouti, establishes first overseas military base

(CNN)China has dispatched troops to Djibouti in advance of formally establishing the country's first overseas military base.

Two Chinese Navy warships left the port of Zhanjiang on Tuesday, taking an undisclosed number of military personnel on the journey across the Indian Ocean.
An editorial Wednesday in the state-run Global Times stressed the importance of the new Djibouti facility -- in the strategically located Horn of Africa -- to the Chinese military.
"Certainly this is the People's Liberation Army's first overseas base and we will base troops there. It's not a commercial resupply point... This base can support Chinese Navy to go farther, so it means a lot," said the paper.
The Global Times said the main role of the base would be to support Chinese warships operating in the region in anti-piracy and humanitarian operations.
"It's not about seeking to control the world," said the editorial.

hi captain...yuh passin' on yuh regular ::LOL:: ::LOL:: ::LOL:: mornin' wisit

nope


it's stuff that keeps you moving helps you lower your BP

And so it begins, First the Chinee seduces third world  countries with economic aid for development , then military bases  .The Chinese  are the new colonial hegemonic  power , China does not help for philanthropic reasons but what is in the interest of China . EG. India  built the Providence cricket ground in Guyana. Most of the building materials and labour was sourced locally with the Indians providing finance and technical support .
China built the Marriot hotel ... Labour and materials , all from China  wiht crumbs going to Guyanese

what is your point kwami ::confused::

you have said nutten there.  India cud have done what you claim they did at providence with deep ulteriors.  who knows...you ::confused::

you clutching at straws in the wind man.

India cud have used the Providence money to left some its millions millions out of poverty...Guyana, like all supine west indians, cudda get up off deh fat, begging asses and build their own stadium. 

{jess imagine the world cup of ODI cricket is to be held in the west indies and deh have no facilities and no money to build any. 

while RSA, Brazil  etc., and so on were proud to have built their facilities on their own for their big games..the west indies begged for every stadium they got to hold those games..with the exception of Trinidad ]

and dont fuhget India and the Andaman islands, where India is in the process of genocide right now as we speak..killing off a population of black people and taking their lands.

THE CHINESE HAVE NOT DONE THAT..AT LEAST NOT AS YET...ANY TIME, ANY PLACE, EVER.  THE CHINESE MAY BE RACIST BUT THEY HAVE OPENED CHINA TO AFRICAN IMMIGRATION FREE SHEET.  THERE ARE THOUSANDS AND GROWING NUMBERS OF AFRICANS LIVING AND WORKING AND MATING IN CHINA....AND THE CHINESE GO TO AFRICA AS WELL AND DO THE SAME THING.

WHAT DOES INDIA DO IN THAT REGARD..THEY KILL BLACK PEOPLE AND RACIST THEM IN AFRICA ITSELF, BUILD SYSTEMS OR RACIST APARTHEID THAT LOCK OUT BLACK PEOPLE IN THEIR OWN COUNTRY..FAR LESS WHAT THEY DO TO BLACKS IN INDIA ITSELF

Stop clutching at straws man.  China has the India of BJP/Modi beaten hands down..PERIOD.  India is not going anywhere, not progressing at all under BJP.  if it continues India will become a western backwater once again

we love cheap labor! 

cheap labour!!!! ::confused::

but most of the africans in China I saw were all in business...open to the chinese public and doing well, married to chinese women with children.

others were working at jobs and involved socially..african women planting trees in public effort to ease pollution and all dat

you went to China to see those Afrikans?


I saw a lot of Afrikans in Dubai too....in businesses.

“Africans bring many security risks,” Pan Qinglin told local media (link in Chinese). As a member of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, the nation’s top political advisory body, he urged the government to “strictly control the African people living in Guangdong and other places.”

“Black brothers often travel in droves; they are out at night out on the streets, nightclubs, and remote areas. They engage in drug trafficking, harassment of women, and fighting, which seriously disturbs law and order in Guangzhou… Africans have a high rate of AIDS and the Ebola virus that can be transmitted via body fluids… If their population [keeps growing], China will change from a nation-state to an immigration country, from a yellow country to a black-and-yellow country.”
