CHINESE AT IT AGAIN! Police In Ghana Arrest CHINESE FACTORY OWNER After Controversial Mattresses
Added:One of the stories that really vexed me, you know, before I do a story, before I am back on a story, there's a way it just makes me feel. There's a story that will make me happy. There's a there's a story that will make me sad. There's a story that will make me feel annoyed, like super annoyed. And one of the stories that really got me vexed this year is that's is a story of Chinese creating infant black dolls and doing all sort of despicable things to the doll. They would smack the doll. They would pierce the doll. You know, just imagining how if there was a chance, how they would mistreat black people. And this is just nothing short of racism.
These people, they really hate the black community. And I do not know why the African continent has opened doors to people who have who have openly admitted to hating us. I actually do not know why. Let me give you an example. The Kenyan government or even the Kenyan people only know that only Chinese can build proper roads. Only Chinese can develop proper buildings. And let me tell you people, whatever we are perpetuating, we are perpetuating a system that these people demean local workers. They demean local people or the citizens of for example Kenya because they know that their governments they do not believe in them and that is why they go for them anyway and whatever what we simply doing we are empowering we are enabling racism now let me give you an example that has like really made me mad is this uh Chinese factory in Ghana that was producing mattresses and they were producing ing this mat mattresses with a with a substandard materials. Materials that uh later when now the local of when Ganaians now bought mattresses from that factory, they were complaining of respiratory pro problems. They were complaining of back problems.
How in what other ways will these people show us that they do not like us?
Anyway, later the government officials went to the factory and they call cops on these Chinese men that were producing these mattresses and they got arrested.
>> What's this?
>> [ __ ] >> Hello.
>> Yeah.
Go go go go go.
Okay. Okay. Go go go. Okay. Okay.
Okay.
Let's go. Yeah, it's okay. It's okay.
>> But we have to hold on for the tool before we go.
>> Yeah. Yeah.
>> Doc, watch out. Watch out. Yeah. Please, >> we have to stay here. Lock this mobile phone. Only China can decide that they want to use a different material. You You understand me? And I cannot come to China and come and manufacture with what 70% of the world is using and tell government that oh look 70% of of the world uses this material so you you must use it. No >> every country decides what material they they want to use. You are you understand me? That is why when you come to a country you will check what the country's standard is and the only way you will know is if you go and register with the agencies you have to register with. So if you have come to to register with stand up authority, you will learn that this material you can't use it for mattress that people lie on in Ghana. Do do you understand what I'm I'm telling you?
>> Yes.
>> So if you tell me the world the world is using it, no, the world can be using it.
You you get me?
>> But this is Ghana. We have we are making rules here. You get it? And we make the the rules based on what we believe is good for us.
>> Do you do you get me?
>> So you can't use polyaryin. This is polyarene. You can't use polyine for around.
>> So company here in Ghana is using poly to produce mattresses and they are selling on the market. So the Ghana standard authority have already picked hint intel that they have this product on the market in Moa and Kumasi and all other places that they are selling and this materials are made from poly which is not material used for matering matrix but this company is doing same here at a at a factory in a area I was listening to this po Chinese political scientist who was saying he actually admitted that Chinese are racist. He said that we yes we are racist and he gave different reasons as to why Chinese are racist. One of the reason he said that Chinese they're not well exposed.
There are some in their entire life they've never seen a black person. So when they see a black person sort of it shocks them. Another thing that he said that uh Chinese don't like black people is that uh they have a monetary system and they have a god that is for money.
They worship this god for money. The god is called Kaishen. And apparently this god is a big deal in China. And there's a risk value or there's a risk factor in that moni monetary system where they believe that white people are rich and they believe that black people are poor.
And that is why as soon as Chinese sees a black person, they um relate them with poverty. And it saddens me that we've opened doors to such people. People that that see no value in us. They come and use our resources yet they demean us.
There's a story I did some time back of a Chinese company working in Zimbabwe.
So this there's a Zimbabwean company that that is developing something large scale in Zim and they contracted um the Chinese. So these Chinese they've been harassing local workers. So what happened after the Chinese now were contracted they employed Zim locals as uh laborers. So these laborers they had been complaining that they being mistreated and their rights were being violated and they complained to they complained to the Chinese.
So what the Chinese told the locals is that you have no rights whatever rights you're complaining about. And apparent all this is happening in Zimbabwe, a country that is not even Chinese. They came all the way from their country to go to Zim and tell the locals that they have no rights in Zim. The madness, the madness out here. So the the Chinese told the locals that you have no rights and what if you feel like you don't want to work, if you feel like your rights are being violated, you can leave.
Let me give you a recap of that story.
Watch this.
>> Accept it or not. One week. The last chance. Not. You don't have a right. You say no. That's the last chance. Give peace.
>> If they can't do that, we are asking another person to replace him.
>> If they cannot do this, we asking another person to replace him. Don't worry.
>> All right. Am I right? Did you watch that video? I hope it made you feel how it made me feel. I got vexed honestly. So, am I right in whatever I feel? I feel that the government or the continent, the African continent and its leaders, they are failing their people for inviting people or encouraging or enabling racism. people who come and you know perpetuate a system that demean local workers and they make local people or citizens feel less or feel small.
It's time to do better. Anyway, let me know what you think. Do you feel the same? Am I am I justified to feel how I feel? Do you feel the same? My name is Onari Jaguna and thank you for watching.
