probably easier to break into Builders and steal a whole bunch of new ones.embarrasing because they will all be stolen in the first week

even if that means giving out token generators as a free "gift" that we know wont go where its intended.Let's not pretend we are dealing with people who think Africa is anything but a colony to be exploited.
*feels insulted*
how long before the crappy generators break, or get stolen?
and how much did each generator cost 100 million each?
China does not do free,It was a donation so I assume on the books "0" but probably a handshake for voting in global issues, less tax for Chinses companies, mineral deals etc
China understands how to deal with Africa's politicians.At least they gave them generators and not money.
They're learning how to deal with the ANC.
next will be a Private Helicopter or jet,China understands how to deal with Africa's politicians.
Future African-generations will remember the good old days of colonialism and Western "partnerships", before the Chinese came.next will be a Private Helicopter or jet,
Africa's ministers and politicians are easily brought.
YouNormally when China helps a country they want something in return, what do they want from us?
take your pick, cheap/free labor, mineral rights, farms, voting powers, or a Military base they can park their crappy ships at.Normally when China helps a country they want something in return, what do they want from us?
yip, the Zimbos are learning how generous Comrade Putin AKA wagner group can be.Future African-generations will remember the good old days of colonialism and Western "partnerships", before the Chinese came.
You do realise that the World Bank, aka the West, recently extended $497 million or R8.6 billion to Eskom as a concessional loan to repurpose and repower Komati? But unfortunately, our ruling regime has to actually counter produce to enable the loan to be activated, so the loan will probably never happen.A half loaf of bread is better than nothing. I dont see Europe or the West coming out to help. Wait they too busy conspiring as to how they going to assist Israel in killing the innocent while furthering their own interests ( oil, and a new sea route cut through Gaza ). @Origin248 dont bother with the ungratefull you cant make everyone happy.
Irrespective of the amount or quantity of help provided everthing totals up.if one of those generators can keep the lights on for kids to study or run a couple of vital medical equipment for surgery to take place, its served a purpose. Unless you have been out doing community work in townships and municipal buildings will you understand.You do realise that the World Bank, aka the West, recently extended $497 million or R8.6 billion to Eskom as a concessional loan to repurpose and repower Komati?

To call a couple of 5 Kw generators half a loaf of bread is really disingenuous.
