My wife is Chinese been marry over 20 years , I’m American Irish man , she use to call me when I was young , A tiger man know she call me a old tiger 🐅😢😓
Much of what this man says is simply not true. After China gained economic independence from European imperialism they fought a 20 year civil war between communists and nationalists. When a country gains its independence, it struggles at its beginning. It is incredibly difficult to shift from being a colonial country to an independent one. Just look the United States history. We were incredible weak after we became independent and were still economically dependent on Britain. We even had our capital burned down by the British in the war of 1812. America has been independent for over 200 years so it’s had far more time to develop. Much of Africa only found its freedom in the 60s and 70s.
@@KshipsinKchups because of geopolitical instability. African countries only gained there independence around 50 years ago. It took the United States 150 years since its independence to gain international prominence. African countries were created with European made borders that give no concern to actual culture and religion of the people inside a country. This causes a country to be filled with groups of people that despise each other. This can lead to civil wars which further drain a country’s resources (e.g. Sudan). Many African countries have a lingering power vacuum because of how recent European independence was. Regarding the Chinese guys point about European infrastructure, most of that was built to export natural resources out of Africa. It is much different from Europe and America’s infrastructure which is built to sustain a booming economy that is run by its own country. African infrastructure built by Europeans was built to export rubber, precious metals, Cocoa, and oil. For that country to reconfigure that infrastructure takes lots of money, which African countries are low on because of their recent independence and civil strife
@venomspeak No. It's a strange kind of love. If he truly hates Africans, he wont even tell them what they are doing wrong and just keep letting them do it. Its a tough kind of love that makes you resent him, but at the end of the day, spending all your monthly wage on partying and then end up borrowing with no savings is bad for you. And he's nagging them until they listen. Not the Disney kind of love, but love is love. And this is a typical 'oldschool' asian parent love.
@venomspeak wtf are you talking about? This is exactly how asian parents be talking to their kids. It's awkward and asian kids will resent their parents at some point because of this. I'm willing to bet you don't have asian parents or even any asian friends for you to be able to relate to this. You seem to have this intense negative energy and hatred all from this one video alone. How the hell is this imperialistic or the same thing during slavery? You comparing a chinese man nagging his workers about being lazy and spending all their hard earned cash as he works alongside them as the same as slavery? And who says parents/employers don't give tough love to grown men? Man, you must be extremely sheltered.
@@Mustang_G I'm half-sure @venomspeak was a kind of overly pampered kids that has never received any scolding (not even physical punishment), that he perceived even a slightest amount of nagging advice and "tough love" as something harmful similar to slavery. I now kinda understand why the West had been overrun by this kind of overly sensitive to criticism and unwilling to learn people. They're powderkegs waiting to explode by the slightest spark.
@venomspeak So its the Europeans fault that the small infrastructure they left in the colonial states of African countries goes to waste? And its the Chinese Corporations fault, that the African Governments are by far most of the corruptest Governments existing on this planet? And that's something I tell you, because in the end nearly all Governments on this planet are corrupt. Yeah, there was extortion and colonialism, and I am sorry to say that, but yeah, there is shitty Government, lack of Interest in knowledge, lack of self awareness, lack of trying to get a better life in Africa. Not all people in Africa are like that, its with Asia the Continent with the most Diversity, but a lot of countries and people in Africa are like that. China made a lot of deals and contracts in Africa, is it mostly in favor of Chinese Corporations? Should be, nobody does things just for altruistic reasons in business relations. But its light years away from the Colonialism of the last couple of centuries, that's not just what I am saying, its been said by many many Africans. So I don't get your sentiment of mixing together Communism, Disney, anti-capitalist and so forth and on.
I feel that the Chinese guy is coming from the thought that bro we got colonised, you got colonised. We all got colonised. How long are you gonna sit there moping. Get your act together.
I’m African, born and raised and I really agree with this man. Our continent is one of, if not the richest when it comes to natural resources, our climates are great for agriculture, specially in the center and southern parts, after colonialism we had everything to prosper but instead we went backwards. Very few countries truly learned from our colonizers, our governments are inefficient and corrupt, we never really understood the value of our resources, instead we kill and rob from one another. We deserve a big slap in the face
The colonizers were not trying to teach anything. They were just there to make gain for themselves. When the communists try to come in and help build up Africa they are chased away by the capitalists colonialists who are there to steal.
@@jamberry8026 true but colonisers are also making the country subservant and also a vassal of that country, so it is a good way to learn off each other but communism,,, well we know that communism just don't work, "we are all equal but some areore equal then others" it's why we see more higher quality of life in capatalism based countries then communism. also far less mortality and higher income than communism
@@sirsatire7802 Were you that poor where you came from that living on crumbs is better. It's not the communism that didn't work. It is the corruption of the government that also plagues capitalism. The grass ain't greener, bruh.
as a South African this is so evident in my country. 28 years after apartheid ended the roads are basically undriveable, the railway non existent, everything was stolen, cities and towns without drinking water and the whole country without electricity. truly leaving behind a empire of dust

@@ericm8633Africans know the futility of their struggle. They cannot overcome the severe genetic limitations put on their mind. That is why they’d rather socialize and mate and drink and party than work. That is also why they are so heavily spiritual. They care more about whatever afterlife they believe in, than this life they are living now. They must feel that being born black African is like living a life in purgatory
China has a surplus of men to women, something like 5 million more men eligible for marriage. That's an insane amount. So these men have to find wives somewhere, it's in China's interest to push african women towards chinese men
It’s not bizzare. He has obviously been working for quite a while. He knows that guy and he’s like been a mentor. He has a local woman. They are most likely married with the parents approval. It’s true that China has a shortage of women due to the brutal 1 child policy where millions of baby girls were aborted
I'm a young black african men. I've watched this video over and over again I think the reason for that is that the Chinese men is telling the truth. What he just said now it's a fact and he's got the balls to tell it like it is, I respect that about him
@@lbjoshbal I'm pretty sure it applied to all African nations that failed to develop. Yes, European nations and the US exploited the Africans, some tried to develop the area to a level that resembled something closer to home and in doing so should have given them ideas, opened their eyes to possibilities and inspiration to develop. Instead, it was all wasted for nothing. In other words Africans were bent over by all these foreign nations who had their way and the Africans learned nothing from the experience. He's disgusted that all his workers were so lazy, unreliable and were all thieves which explained why the nation or even most of the entire continent was unable to develop. Of course, the Chinese are currently whipping them in shape, not just to benefit them in the future but also for the benefit of Africans as they're now more developed than they ever were in their entire history. Another few decades from now, they will be more advanced than the US! That's assuming that they don't sabotage their own success.
"If i have money, I drink all night, no matter if im broke in the morning, I'll drink water." Im not african but this really hits home, something i really needed to hear. Thank you random chinese man.
They left out the part where the Asian man says he's from Shanghai and were colonized by the British. Except, his people learned from them and were able to make great strides in trade, technology, industry, and so much more.
Look I’m a Chinese-American reasonably proud of Chinese civilization. And yes, cultural attitudes and priorities will affect a people’s development. But the two scenarios are pretty different. China, like Europe & others was able to develop agriculture (rice) & civilization a long time ago. Other places with harsher environments couldn’t and lagged behind technologically. China was an ancient civilization that had specific parts (Shanghai, HK) taken by western colonizers. Many African communities were conquered and enslaved by the west before they had developed much themselves or cohered into nation states. And decolonization wasn’t exactly a “set you up for success” process around the world. In most colonies, the Europeans said “peace out” and left behind huge messes of governance, ethnic conflict, & poorly drawn borders.
Also the west is still collecting debt or even controlling economy taking thirty percent of everything (African French currencies) or stopping nationalisation of resources like BP in Nigeria
He's especially correct about the Alcohol part. I live and grew up in South Africa where Alcoholism runs rampant. It's destroyed families and opportunities for many a Black man. I told a girl, some years back, that I only drink 4 to 5 times a year and she was shocked and said I was boring and that she likes guys that drink. That was 4 years ago, she's a single mother of twins now to a deadbeat who apparently is roaming around Durban drinking himself to a stupour. I've seen that so many times growing up and I've encountered many women like her.... Say what you want about the Asian dude but he's on the money about a lot of things here. Don't get butthurt. Do better. Be better.
@Kazeshini Hijacker This is not about the alcohol consumption. Chinese guy is pointing out that if you can't take the load of alcohol why do you waste money on that stuff.
I am Eritrean from East Africa. I feel the same way. I am tired of people of my black race complaining about everything instead of focusing to lift ourselves up. It is 2022
Do better? The guy speaks Chinese one not like that Asian dude that didn't even try to learn as a foreigner the language he is working in. Did you know how long Belgium raped and forced the Congo into slavery in their own country. PLS go read a book for once before talking shit.
@ll The continent of Africa is not neglectful. It is just in a geopolitical situation that is not ideal because of their recent independence from European powers. When America first won its independence it was economically reliant on Britain and militarily weak. When China became independent from European economic imperialism, it went through a 20 year civil war between nationalists and communists. This left them very weak (actually prompted the Japanese Empire to invade them in WW2). African people are incredibly hardworking and intelligent, they are just not in an ideal political situation.
And… so what, this is different. He was constructively criticizing him. You’re piecing together this clip from a decade ago to piece together a racist narrative!
Ironically this actually reflects how close this man feels to the africans he’s speaking to. This is how Chinese family members speak to each other. For some reason, speaking Chinese makes people brutally honest. They will tell you exactly how much fatter you are than the last time they saw you. If they think you’re failing at life, they will let you know immediately. He’s not lecturing them in order to keep them down or say they are inferior, he’s lecturing them with the hope that they will do better and reach their potential. This is how Chinese parenting works. Edit: I’m seeing from the responses that I’ve overgeneralized and attributed a very common trait to the chinese language. The main point stands that this does not need to be seen as a form of suppression but as a form of encouragement. If your bad situation is a reault of your own bad choices, the. You can teverse your situation by making good choices.
Saudi King Volintine Ander of Arabia I definitely overgeneralized, but the point I was emphasizing was that this was most likely not a display of racism but one of familiarity.
I find that really fascinating. I have heard things to that affect about languages like Chinese and Arabic, as compared to Western European languages. In the case of Arabic, apparently for example, it makes all the difference in how the Quran sounds. Supposedly it's a lot more poetic in the original Arabic. Also, to Western speakers, Arabic may sound very angry, loud, and guttural but that is just how the language is. Chinese is a mystery to me for the most part but I'm not surprised what you are saying
Christopher Moltisanti I don’t think it has anything to do with the language. My sister is Korean. She was brought to America when she was 3 weeks old. She’s was raised by a white mother and father. Never knew life in Korea. Yet she is the exact same way. She’s 46. While she might not be as brutally honest as this guy is, the attitude that brings about that brutal honesty is. If you talk to her about your problems, her attitude is one of, “why tf are talking about your problems to me, instead of actually doing something to solve them?” Then she proceeds to tell you exactly how you fix them. In her mind, talking about it takes the same amount of effort as doing something about it. And the only thing to do, is to do it, or not to do it. I was raised in the same house by the same parents (I’m white), and that is no where near my approach. for some time it came across to me as unsympathetic and harsh, but my sister is a good Christian woman who actually talks the talk, and walks the walk. Nothing fake about her. She’s all in and she is a great person. I figured out that as harsh as it may seem, everything she says is exactly what you need to hear. And it comes from a place of love, and a sincere desire to see you do good and be the best you can be. She would never put effort into hurting anyone feelings, but she cares enough to not shy away from it, if what you need to hear is going to hurt your feelings. It’s almost like talking to Spock. She just has a much different logic than anyone else I know. I know that was long winded, sorry. But I think that just may be a trait common to Assertive Asian people. Regardless of what language they speak.
The thing with this video is, it's all truth and it hurts as a black person watching this. I tried helped my community and was almost stabbed to death for the wealth I created to help them. I am hopeful still because countries like Rwanda exists as example of what black people can do together.
@Bob Smith Yeah it's true unfortunately, I was repeatedly warn by mentors and friends to hide any sign of wealth until I was sure I have heavy security around me. I refused and instead helped persons in need and almost payed with my life. I live in Jamaica tho but the situation is mostly the same.

But the people who have been around you throughout your life will not, because your behavior to them is part of the norm. So there is no room for criticism. Thanks!
In my family its the opposite. Friends will be nice and will try to be gentle when telling you what you need to hear. Strangers will be polite and bc they have no invested interest in you, they don't really care. Family will be honest bc they love you the most, even if that means becoming hated in the end.

I once heard someone say “A stranger will show you more love than your own family.” and if love means what it’s supposed to mean (correction, accountability, honesty, etc.) then that person was right... damn right.

That's for sure, because white people have a long history of colonizing Africa and black people, we Chinese do not, we have no conflict of interest with Africans, honestly to help them grow.😊
The reason for that should be obvious from history - who colonized the Africans and brought them to other parts of the world as slaves? Whites or the Chinese? In fact, China was partially colonized and enslaved by the Europeans, Americans, and the Japanese.
@ShaolinKungFuGanjaStyle Yeah, completely different I agree. Europeans and US never helped the Africans like the Chinese are doing, they just exploited their differences and artificial border conflicts and bought their national ruling class. It's not the same, the white male would just be arrogant and uncultured given that they've created the situation and still have poor platforms for 'cooperation'.
"Look at me, struggling. You're standing there, doing nothing." No need to wonder why China has brought over one million men there doing most challenging and critical work.

Not even America can say it puts America first because mindless people will call it fascism or complain about nationalism.

This is what makes the Chinese different from other East Asian people. They speak frankly and directly. They don’t care if you would be angry at their statement or not, what’s important for them is that they’ve shared their faithful observation on a certain person. This type of frankness wouldn’t be appreciated in Japan and Korea.

Back about 40 years ago, I was working in a laboratory (in the US). A coworker was from Iraq, and he said that some years earlier he was with a group that went to Somalia to help that country improve its agricultural production. He said they brought tractors and other equipment....but the people in Somalia seemed to have no interest in using this equipment or changing anything they were already doing. He said that by the time he went back to Iraq, he felt completely disgusted with Somalia and its people, and said the project was a waste of time and money.
@Mangrove Roots No offense intended. The Iraqi man who told me and others this was probably over 40 at that time he said this, so perhaps he was referring to something he experienced a couple decades earlier--I can't recall if he gave a date, and unfortunately he died a few years later so of course I can't ask him. Is it possible this happened, let's say, in the 1950s, 1960s or early 1970s? If it did, then he and his colleagues were trying to introduce something that was completely foreign to the culture and way of life of the Somali people (i.e., like teaching people living in the central Sahara how to catch fish!).
Most charity and and money is wasted in these countries China has wasted Trillions in Africa and they are at the point of taking over most of it because the people have been a net drain destroyin not just one but two Giga city projects.
A Somali here! That mans testimony is totally believable, it was 40 odd years ago as you've stated. Somalia was culturally and historically a nomadic society. Which means they moved around and herded livestock. However that has obviously changed with urbanisation and everything. Farming is in its infant shoes but the west destroys its potential by providing wheat, grain etc. In the disguise of "aid". It kills the whole farming industry offcourse.

Not 12,000 just 12. out of population of around 30 million . it was just used as resource extraction land for Europeans, specially Belgians . then propping up Mobutu by both Communist countries and US also did not help.
It’s true, but it’s just sad that it will probably never change. I lived in Kenya for a while and dated a Kenyan woman thinking that I could start a business over there or do something productive. But you see people who don’t work at all during the day clubbing it up all night long, 7 days a week, and you just know a lot of them are getting the cash to do so from some gullible Mzungu like I was. There are some impressive developments happening in some places, but as a whole compared to the amount of money that is poured into Africa from abroad and the amount of resources below the ground, it’s really shameful the lack of progress and outright decay in technology and infrastructure. Like how is it that in Canada we have 6 months almost of subzero temperatures while most African countries have perfect weather year-round, yet Canadians are out working in any condition while many Africans are just waiting for handouts while the weather is always good?
@@Adrian-op5ni what, Africa, the most resource-rich continent in the world, yet none of those people can get their shit together and establish a functioning economy and society?
@@Adrian-op5ni “Living in huts”… shake my head. With the trillions of dollars given to them in aid, they weren’t able to build something better than a hut 🛖? You really don’t know much about reality.

I mean when you have to learn the language of your colonizer to survive. I imagine people like him will be more common when China gets more of a stronger grip on those countries, English and French will start to fade and Chinese will replace them as the lingua franca
its not widey known, but ill tell you. When I worked in mainland China, the international crowd all said the same thing. didnt matter if the person was from Russia, Germany or the Philippines, they all said that Africans have an "uncanny", even bordering on supernatural ability to pick up the Mandarin (Putunghua) Chinese rather quickly. And I thought the Filipinos were good at it...even they were in awe of them.
There’s a big reason why black-majority countries are so far behind all other countries and it’s a lame excuse to blame it all on past colonisation - other former colonies that don’t rely on that excuse have grown to become some of the world’s best-performing economies
It is because of colonialism don’t try to put the victim mentality echo that you heard from someone else on them because you are insecure that your are the real inferior one.
@Blackbelt20034 then why countries which where never colonised like Ethiopia liberia in africa or nepal mongolia kazakstha etc in asia are poor? In reality the 20 countries which were not colonised are more poor then the colonised ones lol and i am an indian not a white
Indeed, we talk a lot about respecting cultures these days; well this is part of chinese culture, as I see it. The painstaking honesty, laden with dimmed out smile and an intention to call out unsatisfactory models to be corrected. It's only problematic for people who do decision making primarily by emotions, because when taken rationally and impersonally, person like him really strives for embetterment.
That's because.. in the U.S.. they killed off over 60 million native Americans and enslaved over 40 million Africans for 246 years!! I think it's safe to say that there's a little bad blood there! The least you can pull out is the race card! YOU NEED A BETTER EXAMPLE!
I'm a black South African and I agree with this man. We haven't learned anything from apartheid and how things were done instead we let the whole country rot. My mom who lived during the apartheid era even said that times were better back then than they are today. Our people keep on making excuses, but take very little action to change their situations. My mom is a teacher and plenty of her students are without parents, because their parents are out drinking the social grant money they receive monthly. The sad part is black people will often try to bring down other black people when they are trying to be successful. My aunt has a small farm and her neighbors complained to her saying that she's using their drinking water for her farm. She had collect water from a dam because of their complaints. Her neighbor even hired a witch doctor to have her killed. In the rural community where my aunt's farm is the people were given tractors by the government to farm. What did they do? They let them sit and did absolutely nothing. The tractors had to be collected. I've lived with white people for most of my life and let me tell I've learned plenty. They've treated me fairly and we got along quite well. I've never felt more safe and the like the fact that everyone minds their own business. I'm living in a black community and we've had our car broken into. I've been robbed recently by a person of colour. So much change is needed in our African countries. People need to wake up and stop blaming colonialism. Most of our leaders are greedy, incompetent, demagogues. I'm not trying to shame black people, but we can't continue to act oblivious to what's going on. There needs to come a point where you take accountability.

If you take this criticism as negative instead of constructive criticism you won’t succeed in life. Taking what you can improve from the criticism is healthy. Challenge is to know the criticism of you is not who you are, it’s who you are at this moment. You can change it.
In less than 50 years, Finland rose from a poor country (while paying millions to Russia after the war, we loaned from the US and paid back every single penny!) to be one of the richest. Many other countries have had the same path. The excuses need to end, Africa can do better.
Every man needs a friend like this Chinese dude. Believe it or not, he's not being raecease. A "Yes man" buddy will tickle your ear but will lead you to nowhere along with him, while a brutally frank and honest friend will smash your eardrums with truths just so you could be somewhere better.
As an African who has stayed in about 5 different African countries from East and central to southern Africa. Everything the Chinese man said was on point🗣️ 👌🏾..no lies told here people. He's not racist just giving his observation of a group of people. We need to do better as a race 🤷. The black man does not see beyond the end of his tummy.. party after party 🎉🎉 and shaking his behind 😂😂🤣🤣..
Low IQ is the reason. The reason is genetic. I feel bad for the African because 95% of them are much too stupid to improve their lives meaningfully. It’s not their fault, it’s their DNA. It would be like expecting a mentally disabled person to keep up in advanced classes in school. It’s unfair. We have special classes for people with mental disabilities. And we should have special societies for black Africans. Keep them desperate, with no 1st world technology. Give them another 5000 years to try to evolvemore.
It's not a race thing but a cultural one. Black peoples from Africa have everything to succeed and they are not born more lazy than any other races but they grew up in environment and maintain a environment that is not good for development...You need to teach the younger generation better values and that generation need to teach to the next one. Grow the mind then develops.
I liked this line, and I like that it’s in there. I don’t think this guy is saying any of this with malice. He doesn’t seem to dislike Africans. He just thinks they should be able to do things more effectively and efficiently. It’s like an older brother telling his younger brother to get it together, but he has tons of fun hanging out with that brother.

siouxsie Slime The europeans left them farmland and and some recources. However, most of these needed to be used for the growing population and most where turned into cities or industry hubs. But Africans saw these “gifts” as a symbol of the past and unpatriotic so they got rid of it. And I personally believe it was justified aswell

As a Chinese person, I can tell you how open-hearted this man is towards his Black subordinate! Chinese people are generally reserved and don't usually criticize so directly unless they consider you a true friend, even as close as a brother. As for his criticism of the country, it shocked me even more. We typically criticize countries like the United States, the United Kingdom, France, and Germany vigorously because we know that such criticism won't hurt the pride of their people. However, we tend to avoid criticizing some of the less developed countries because we ourselves have been in a similar situation of being underdeveloped and poor. We know what that feels like. But this man courageously brought up this point with his Black colleague, and it wasn't insincere flattery. He must genuinely love the Democratic Republic of the Congo to do this. I could see in his tone and expression the way my elementary school teacher used to complain about me, "Pity the unfortunate, but also anger at their passivity." The pained expression on his Black colleague's face also saddens me. Sigh...
Why criticized a developed country unless your developing country really does suck? The poor criticize the poorer to make themselves feel good. However, I agree with you that the Chinese man genuinely wanted to see improvement. That is just his personality. If he were back in China he will talk to the younger generation the same way.

I’m going to ignore your first extremely incorrect statement. Sub-Saharan Africa had its Iron Age thousands of years before Europe. Europe is the only continent to have never invented agriculture independently (except Antarctica), despite the vast amount of farmland. Asia, North America, South America, Africa and even Australia had invented agriculture independently. Do you know how crazy that is, fucking aboriginals on a small island off the coast of Australia had agriculture before you guys.
This guy is a good friend to have. He will remind you honestly your flaws. How easy it is to just smile and say nothing? Sometimes people need to be told in a blunt way and this is characteristic of chinese culture
It's a shame Chinese people get emotional when Europeans give them a lecture on something. In fact they go straight into the same type of victim complex that Blacks in Western countries do. "Muh 100 years of humiliation"..

Chinese parents: they criticize you everyday, tell you how lazy you are and rarely give out compliments such as "not too bad.". then they tell you "the society won't treat you as nicely as I do once you are on your own". tough love.

Worked with a guy from the Virgin Islands. One of the best workers everywhere. After hearing stories about his life, it was apparent his mother and grandfather were great role models who instilled that kind of work ethic in his life. Oh, he had fun as a kid and got into his fair share of troublemaking but he is an upstanding person unlike so many African Americans. I think a huge part of it is that he never saw himself as a victim either. I guess the Virgin Islands makes that easier than the crap education offered to average black folks in the USA. I'd be hard pressed to figure out which is worse, the lousy indoctrination people get from lousy public schools and the media or a morally bankrupt area.
@Umbuko DaJuko "unlike so many African Americans" means exactly what it means. And you have no idea what you're talking about. The Virgin Islands is a US territory. They were purchased from Denmark. My Virgin Island friend was allowed in the USA because he's a US citizen due to natural disasters and Germany's actions in World War I which made the island a financial burden to Denmark and a security risk to the USA.

A great leap forward for India would be a respect of property rights... I have heard from an ex-patriot Indian that rental tenants cannot be evicted if they don't pay rent for their homes.

I feel this dude's pain. I'm an American, 28, and I got berated by an Australian electrical-engineering tech consultant in his 40's at the factory I work at in town. I'm just a lowly electrical technician and I saw this guy walking around everywhere and studying everything on all the machines. Suspicious but not uncommon for such things to occur. So I struck up a conversation with this mate and we talked for an hour and a half. We had a lot in common political wise, as we were both very conservative, and then he gave me this long brutal diatribe about how Americans were uncultured. What he was talking about was how we Americans didn't get out of our country much, had a lack of understanding of how civilized other countries were, for example, he said that someone asked him if Australians even had cars, and then he talked about how brash and how we had cowboy mentality in dangerous situations, how we got people hurt unnecessarily in dangerous situations militarily and had to be bailed out by other countries. I sit through 5 minutes of this berating and it was rough. Mark could see it was getting to me but kept going until he was finished. That was rough to sit through. I didn't take it personally and Mark thanked me listening and told me how our hearts were in the right place, even if our minds were not of the right mentality and maturity to be dealing with the others in our world. Its hard to take criticism from others, especially if they tell you things you don't want to hear, but you have to understand that you yourself can become blind to your own mistakes.

Much of what this man says is simply not true. After China gained economic independence from European imperialism they fought a 20 year civil war between communists and nationalists. When a country gains its independence, it struggles at its beginning. It is incredibly difficult to shift from being a colonial country to an independent one. Just look the United States history. We were incredible weak after we became independent and were still economically dependent on Britain. We even had our capital burned down by the British in the war of 1812. America has been independent for over 200 years so it’s had far more time to develop. Much of Africa only found its freedom in the 60s and 70s.
@@KshipsinKchups because of geopolitical instability. African countries only gained there independence around 50 years ago. It took the United States 150 years since its independence to gain international prominence. African countries were created with European made borders that give no concern to actual culture and religion of the people inside a country. This causes a country to be filled with groups of people that despise each other. This can lead to civil wars which further drain a country’s resources (e.g. Sudan). Many African countries have a lingering power vacuum because of how recent European independence was.
Regarding the Chinese guys point about European infrastructure, most of that was built to export natural resources out of Africa. It is much different from Europe and America’s infrastructure which is built to sustain a booming economy that is run by its own country. African infrastructure built by Europeans was built to export rubber, precious metals, Cocoa, and oil. For that country to reconfigure that infrastructure takes lots of money, which African countries are low on because of their recent independence and civil strife

@venomspeak So its the Europeans fault that the small infrastructure they left in the colonial states of African countries goes to waste? And its the Chinese Corporations fault, that the African Governments are by far most of the corruptest Governments existing on this planet? And that's something I tell you, because in the end nearly all Governments on this planet are corrupt.
Yeah, there was extortion and colonialism, and I am sorry to say that, but yeah, there is shitty Government, lack of Interest in knowledge, lack of self awareness, lack of trying to get a better life in Africa. Not all people in Africa are like that, its with Asia the Continent with the most Diversity, but a lot of countries and people in Africa are like that. China made a lot of deals and contracts in Africa, is it mostly in favor of Chinese Corporations? Should be, nobody does things just for altruistic reasons in business relations.

Our continent is one of, if not the richest when it comes to natural resources, our climates are great for agriculture, specially in the center and southern parts, after colonialism we had everything to prosper but instead we went backwards. Very few countries truly learned from our colonizers, our governments are inefficient and corrupt, we never really understood the value of our resources, instead we kill and rob from one another. We deserve a big slap in the face
You mean race, not continent.
The colonizers were not trying to teach anything. They were just there to make gain for themselves. When the communists try to come in and help build up Africa they are chased away by the capitalists colonialists who are there to steal.

@@helloose221 meh, I could be wrong though.
@@lbjoshbal I'm pretty sure it applied to all African nations that failed to develop. Yes, European nations and the US exploited the Africans, some tried to develop the area to a level that resembled something closer to home and in doing so should have given them ideas, opened their eyes to possibilities and inspiration to develop. Instead, it was all wasted for nothing. In other words Africans were bent over by all these foreign nations who had their way and the Africans learned nothing from the experience. He's disgusted that all his workers were so lazy, unreliable and were all thieves which explained why the nation or even most of the entire continent was unable to develop. Of course, the Chinese are currently whipping them in shape, not just to benefit them in the future but also for the benefit of Africans as they're now more developed than they ever were in their entire history. Another few decades from now, they will be more advanced than the US! That's assuming that they don't sabotage their own success.

They left out the part where the Asian man says he's from Shanghai and were colonized by the British. Except, his people learned from them and were able to make great strides in trade, technology, industry, and so much more.
Look I’m a Chinese-American reasonably proud of Chinese civilization. And yes, cultural attitudes and priorities will affect a people’s development.
But the two scenarios are pretty different. China, like Europe & others was able to develop agriculture (rice) & civilization a long time ago. Other places with harsher environments couldn’t and lagged behind technologically. China was an ancient civilization that had specific parts (Shanghai, HK) taken by western colonizers. Many African communities were conquered and enslaved by the west before they had developed much themselves or cohered into nation states. And decolonization wasn’t exactly a “set you up for success” process around the world. In most colonies, the Europeans said “peace out” and left behind huge messes of governance, ethnic conflict, & poorly drawn borders.

He's especially correct about the Alcohol part. I live and grew up in South Africa where Alcoholism runs rampant. It's destroyed families and opportunities for many a Black man. I told a girl, some years back, that I only drink 4 to 5 times a year and she was shocked and said I was boring and that she likes guys that drink. That was 4 years ago, she's a single mother of twins now to a deadbeat who apparently is roaming around Durban drinking himself to a stupour.

@ll The continent of Africa is not neglectful. It is just in a geopolitical situation that is not ideal because of their recent independence from European powers. When America first won its independence it was economically reliant on Britain and militarily weak.
When China became independent from European economic imperialism, it went through a 20 year civil war between nationalists and communists. This left them very weak (actually prompted the Japanese Empire to invade them in WW2).
African people are incredibly hardworking and intelligent, they are just not in an ideal political situation.

Exactly, and when white people say the same thing we are called racist
So true, sad.
And… so what, this is different. He was constructively criticizing him. You’re piecing together this clip from a decade ago to piece together a racist narrative!
@OluseniIsaacs why does the left have such a problem with the truth? This is what Asisns do to their own children.
Ironically this actually reflects how close this man feels to the africans he’s speaking to. This is how Chinese family members speak to each other. For some reason, speaking Chinese makes people brutally honest. They will tell you exactly how much fatter you are than the last time they saw you. If they think you’re failing at life, they will let you know immediately. He’s not lecturing them in order to keep them down or say they are inferior, he’s lecturing them with the hope that they will do better and reach their potential. This is how Chinese parenting works.
Edit: I’m seeing from the responses that I’ve overgeneralized and attributed a very common trait to the chinese language. The main point stands that this does not need to be seen as a form of suppression but as a form of encouragement. If your bad situation is a reault of your own bad choices, the. You can teverse your situation by making good choices.
They want their children to do better than they did, nothing wrong with that.
Saudi King Volintine Ander of Arabia I definitely overgeneralized, but the point I was emphasizing was that this was most likely not a display of racism but one of familiarity.
But when white people do it, it's racist?
I find that really fascinating. I have heard things to that affect about languages like Chinese and Arabic, as compared to Western European languages. In the case of Arabic, apparently for example, it makes all the difference in how the Quran sounds. Supposedly it's a lot more poetic in the original Arabic. Also, to Western speakers, Arabic may sound very angry, loud, and guttural but that is just how the language is. Chinese is a mystery to me for the most part but I'm not surprised what you are saying
Christopher Moltisanti I don’t think it has anything to do with the language. My sister is Korean. She was brought to America when she was 3 weeks old. She’s was raised by a white mother and father. Never knew life in Korea. Yet she is the exact same way. She’s 46. While she might not be as brutally honest as this guy is, the attitude that brings about that brutal honesty is. If you talk to her about your problems, her attitude is one of, “why tf are talking about your problems to me, instead of actually doing something to solve them?” Then she proceeds to tell you exactly how you fix them. In her mind, talking about it takes the same amount of effort as doing something about it. And the only thing to do, is to do it, or not to do it. I was raised in the same house by the same parents (I’m white), and that is no where near my approach. for some time it came across to me as unsympathetic and harsh, but my sister is a good Christian woman who actually talks the talk, and walks the walk. Nothing fake about her. She’s all in and she is a great person. I figured out that as harsh as it may seem, everything she says is exactly what you need to hear. And it comes from a place of love, and a sincere desire to see you do good and be the best you can be. She would never put effort into hurting anyone feelings, but she cares enough to not shy away from it, if what you need to hear is going to hurt your feelings. It’s almost like talking to Spock. She just has a much different logic than anyone else I know. I know that was long winded, sorry. But I think that just may be a trait common to Assertive Asian people. Regardless of what language they speak.
The thing with this video is, it's all truth and it hurts as a black person watching this. I tried helped my community and was almost stabbed to death for the wealth I created to help them. I am hopeful still because countries like Rwanda exists as example of what black people can do together.

In my family its the opposite. Friends will be nice and will try to be gentle when telling you what you need to hear.

The reason for that should be obvious from history - who colonized the Africans and brought them to other parts of the world as slaves? Whites or the Chinese? In fact, China was partially colonized and enslaved by the Europeans, Americans, and the Japanese.
Your own government took more civilian lives than the Japanese ever did.

Back about 40 years ago, I was working in a laboratory (in the US). A coworker was from Iraq, and he said that some years earlier he was with a group that went to Somalia to help that country improve its agricultural production. He said they brought tractors and other equipment....but the people in Somalia seemed to have no interest in using this equipment or changing anything they were already doing. He said that by the time he went back to Iraq, he felt completely disgusted with Somalia and its people, and said the project was a waste of time and money.
@Mangrove Roots No offense intended. The Iraqi man who told me and others this was probably over 40 at that time he said this, so perhaps he was referring to something he experienced a couple decades earlier--I can't recall if he gave a date, and unfortunately he died a few years later so of course I can't ask him. Is it possible this happened, let's say, in the 1950s, 1960s or early 1970s? If it did, then he and his colleagues were trying to introduce something that was completely foreign to the culture and way of life of the Somali people (i.e., like teaching people living in the central Sahara how to catch fish!).
Most charity and and money is wasted in these countries China has wasted Trillions in Africa and they are at the point of taking over most of it because the people have been a net drain destroyin not just one but two Giga city projects.

A Somali here! That mans testimony is totally believable, it was 40 odd years ago as you've stated. Somalia was culturally and historically a nomadic society. Which means they moved around and herded livestock. However that has obviously changed with urbanisation and everything.

My mom is a teacher and plenty of her students are without parents, because their parents are out drinking the social grant money they receive monthly.
The sad part is black people will often try to bring down other black people when they are trying to be successful. My aunt has a small farm and her neighbors complained to her saying that she's using their drinking water for her farm. She had collect water from a dam because of their complaints. Her neighbor even hired a witch doctor to have her killed. In the rural community where my aunt's farm is the people were given tractors by the government to farm. What did they do? They let them sit and did absolutely nothing. The tractors had to be collected.
I've lived with white people for most of my life and let me tell I've learned plenty. They've treated me fairly and we got along quite well.

As a Chinese person, I can tell you how open-hearted this man is towards his Black subordinate! Chinese people are generally reserved and don't usually criticize so directly unless they consider you a true friend, even as close as a brother.
As for his criticism of the country, it shocked me even more. We typically criticize countries like the United States, the United Kingdom, France, and Germany vigorously because we know that such criticism won't hurt the pride of their people. However, we tend to avoid criticizing some of the less developed countries because we ourselves have been in a similar situation of being underdeveloped and poor. We know what that feels like.
But this man courageously brought up this point with his Black colleague, and it wasn't insincere flattery. He must genuinely love the Democratic Republic of the Congo to do this. I could see in his tone and expression the way my elementary school teacher used to complain about me, "Pity the unfortunate, but also anger at their passivity."

Why criticized a developed country unless your developing country really does suck? The poor criticize the poorer to make themselves feel good.

India is a country ruled by welfarism rather than merit
India still hasn't reached its potential even after a whole decade of rule by visionary leadership
I'm leaving this country with all my money and skills
@@ProudTurkroachmost welcome 🤗 but people like me will do hard work the country .

Your comment is legend
One testimony from South Africa is that the black workers employed by farmers wouldn't show up for work the day after payday, or the day after that, but by the third and fourth days they'd start trickling back in. Their money was all spent and they needed more.
An entire continent of incompetence and corruption.
How has this humongous landspace been incapable of thriving when the entire world has?
Blaming colonialism is just doing the same thing. Putting the ownst on others, instead of accepting help, and ultimately creating a better life for all.
Well, no, the entire world hasn’t. Most of the world lives much much below what Europeans would consider living standards. Africa is especially bad though.
Neo-colonialism. That’s literally just it, like even the companies and governments doing it admitted to it. Like Belgium with the Congo, they assassinated a leader that was preaching for independence from foreign aid.
@@oktusprime3637True, but most of the rest of the world has made huge progress. India, China, SE Asia, Mexico, Brazil, Poland and so many other countries. Compared with 70 years ago, they are thriving.
The African man looks like he’s about to go crazy on the Chinese guy.
No, he doesn’t. The african man understands the chinese man is speaking the truth he just doesnt like hearing it
He looks like he's bored having to listen to this patronizing bullshit..." Ok ok boss get it all out so we can move on with our day already."
@@chipwalter4490 This is exactly y they don't succeed, ' Ok ok boss i get it ' then proceeds to ignore it ( tho it's troo ) cos it sounds ' patronizing '
you sound just like them if all you got from his lesson is ' OMG SO PATRONIZING '
@@zak4437 the Chinese guy is talking out of his ass. Theres no truth to what hes saying. He clearly has no grasp of what colonialism did to Africa whatsoever. Hes ultimately just shitting on this random black guy for the problems of an entire continent.
@@words3147 Shame. May take 2000 years for them to pull up their socks.
I am many things but lazy isn't one of them but this hurts me in my soul. What I can take from this is I must truly grow in new areas of my life. I've already adapted the fact you must work hard. I must somehow live with being uncomfortable in my uncertainty of learning mastering and doing new things TODAY!
True and that applies to everyone. Everyone has to keep growing. You're only growing if you're uncomfortable.
Man, this is how we generally act here in the States too. Native Americans often also. When a people have been about destroyed, they often do not act right or invest in the future as they should; rather they live for the day and neglect thinking about the future.
Lol the Chinese turned themselves into a first world country and juggernaut after colonialism.
I guess Asians are just beautifully blunt. Years ago my ex took me to get my nails done and the Asian woman doing my nails noticed my ring and took my hand firmly and said "He bought this for you?" In her heavy accent. I was so proud and gleaming and said yes. Well she grasped my hand and said, "You tell him you want real diamonds! No cheap! You tell him this no good!." Omg I laughed so freaking hard. She was serious! She smiled because I laughed so hard but she was not amused. It was a cheap walmart ring too but that's ok haha XD One of my fav moments
chinese are blunt (to a fault sometimes), but not japanese (they hide their feelings and act polite).
The Chinese are very blunt and don't beat about the Bush. They think your fat, then boy will they let you know. I met a fat uncle once yet when I met him, he was thin. Once fat, lol always fat.
Well...was he ever able to give you a new one?
@@CinemaDoll137 haha no he's my ex for a reason.......LOL jk that's not the reason. We just grew apart. So cliché but it happens. :)
😂
Chinese guy is treating the African guy like family. Unfortunate for him.
At about 00:20, he literally said "Spring Festival" instead of "New Year" - the earliest time in a year at which Spring Festival takes place is January 13, so it can never coincide with the New Year in the West.
Im south african and it is true
Well my familie was rich enought to pay me study to USA
I feel this dude's pain. I'm an American, 28, and I got berated by an Australian electrical-engineering tech consultant in his 40's at the factory I work at in town. I'm just a lowly electrical technician and I saw this guy walking around everywhere and studying everything on all the machines. Suspicious but not uncommon for such things to occur. So I struck up a conversation with this mate and we talked for an hour and a half. We had a lot in common political wise, as we were both very conservative, and then he gave me this long brutal diatribe about how Americans were uncultured. What he was talking about was how we Americans didn't get out of our country much, had a lack of understanding of how civilized other countries were, for example, he said that someone asked him if Australians even had cars, and then he talked about how brash and how we had cowboy mentality in dangerous situations, how we got people hurt unnecessarily in dangerous situations militarily and had to be bailed out by other countries. I sit through 5 minutes of this berating and it was rough. Mark could see it was getting to me but kept going until he was finished. That was rough to sit through. I didn't take it personally and Mark thanked me listening and told me how our hearts were in the right place, even if our minds were not of the right mentality and maturity to be dealing with the others in our world. Its hard to take criticism from others, especially if they tell you things you don't want to hear, but you have to understand that you yourself can become blind to your own mistakes. Especially if you've been making those mistakes your whole life.
The entire world is dollarized, watches american movies, uses american english and hates countries just because america says yet you complain about "enduring" a rant from an aussie?
Wtf? I have *never* heard anyone ask anything like "do Australians have cars"...they're Whi te people..of course they do 😅
@@stephenodubhlaoichreally? I foolishly posted something on American gun control after yet another mass shooting years ago and got told “I don’t knows nuttin, coz I all lives in da third world” at the time the Aussie dollar was on parity with the US. When it really comes down to it, us Aussies can be a brutally honest people when we feel it is necessary. Don’t get me wrong, we completely stand with America but we often wonder why lol…
You are not America. Individuals are not the American state and govt. There is a massive difference.......the American state and empire is a project of a privileged few who care not for the American people.....and the same applies to many other countries including African ones. The government is invariably THE problem............everywhere.
there are plenty of aussies who that same description would apply to. He was just being an obnoxious tosser, you should have told him to fuck off
There are a lot of comments bringing up the effects that colonisation had on Africa's ability to develop however can someone explain why Ethiopia is in the state that it is in? I mean it was the only country on the continent that wasn't colonised so what is the excuse for their underdevelopment?
People are stupid and brainwashed by Marxist theory and most of them don't even know it lol.
Or Liberia
Botswana, Tunisia, Morocco debunks your claims
@@TheDVN909 Mentioning a handful of countries won't change the fact that the majority of the countries on the continent are in dire straits. Again the question remains if colonisation and neocolonialism is responsible for the crises on the African continent which I don't ignore why is Ethiopia a developing nation instead of developed?
@@SurafelSolomon-df6wq Hopefully things will get better 😔
The thing is, this man basically said what we all think 🤷🏽♂️... Even if it hurts, you know he's right. And he's being really diplomatic; the situation is much worse than he's letting on. I've lived in a few African countries and the US, and I relate to the Chinese man's observations.
Also, and this is totally unrelated, I kinda like the sound of Mandarin 😅
Yeah im black and the sad thing is that its true
Still propagandist bullshit, China 🇨🇳 not doing shit from the kindness of their heart, Long live Africa.
Blacks hate it when white people say these same things. It comes from extremely deep seeded jealousy of white people. They know they owe whites for civilizing them, and it’s a very deep scar on their pride.
@@ThaiKicker97🤡🤡
He's 100% right. It's just the harsh bitter truth nobody wants to hear. How can you work every day then spend all of it drinking at a bar??? That's dullness
Sounds like my dad. I’m not even Asian. Maybe it’s a state of mind when winter comes harsher than any drought and it comes once a year.
