China’s New Silk Road: the Project of the Century
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 23 июн 2023
- Chinese president XI Jinping has named it the ‘project of the century.’ Since 2013 China has invested billions into bringing the ‘Middle Kingdom’ to the forefront of global economics and international politics.
What China has baptised ’The New Silk Road’ allows a pair of trainers to be transported by train from China to France in less than two weeks. But they also act as a vehicle for a wave of Chinese expansionism across the world.
In Gwadar, Pakistan, China is excavating a giant port, as well as a spectacular highway that crosses the Himalayas, in order to open the doors to the warm seas. At the limits of their Russian borders in central Asia, along a new railway line that serves Europe, Chinese entrepreneurs have installed special economic zones and casinos in the middle of the desert. Further afield than Beijing, in Djibouti, on the Horn of Africa, the Chinese state has recently established a military port, a stone’s throw from the American and French bases, as well as building an ultra modern railway serving Ethiopia. In the wake of these movements, Chinese businesses are swooping down on east African markets, hoping to make the region one of the new workshops of the world.

The Chinese come as investors. The local govt is the one that finds the land for the factories. Not the other way around. This documentary seems to want to portray the chinese as having oppressed the farmers.
It's all propaganda
Exactly
European and American countries and Japan invest in China, and workers in China earn $0.50 every hour. Because China has cheap labor, a large number of European and American countries invest in China, and China provides land and infrastructure.
@@user-kq5pj9py9c dunno where you get your data. can you please tell us where you can find factory workers for 50 cents an hour in China. I will go and open something there next week!
@@Jkl62200In 2000, the monthly salary you Americans gave to the Chinese was only 450 RMB, and you worked 12 hours a day, which was 62 US dollars, and the hourly wage was only 0.17 cents.
Come on. If they do the work, you complain they are taking away all the jobs and if they let you do the job, you complain they stand their giving orders. It's a crazy world. No matter what you do, someone will hate you.
Can't agree with you more, and the stupid western medias always try to fool their people.
Double standard and Hypocricy are just some common for these people .
@@nicholasl5247 These people = Western people
Coming from the Western journalism is a way to attack China !
Agree....!
So if it work in their favour nothing is wrong with that, the Chinese work really hard to improve the lives of their people and their economy.
It's seems to me that this is a UK documentary about China and all about the bad things China is doing currently, it's quite subjective to say the least. We blame the Chinese for what Europe and the US have done themselves for decades. Haven't we Europeans exploited African for centuries? And about England, take a mirror and look in it, millions of English people can't pay there bills anymore, they live in harsh conditions. Young English people who cannot afford to buy a house anymore. Same in the US, where a lot of people have to take on 2 or 3 jobs, just to survive...no that's paradise. Please take off your subjective glasses and don't blame China for everything. Maybe it's a bit difficult for us Europeans and Americans to accept, but Asia is going to dominate the century to come, whether we like it or not.
These ladies that have been trained well in this textile industries.. they can learn and become experts and start training other Djiboutians and expand this industry within.. emplying people and also exporting their line of clothing. A huge opportunity to learn the skill and fly. Mann Africa, help yourselves bana.
I HAVE MET CHINESE,I HAV HIGHVRESPRECT THEYR HARD WORKING HUMBLE
欢迎你来中国🇨🇳旅游！😊😊😊
Belt and Road Initiative is a 100 year long term project
USA too
Most of those Chinese supervisors were factory workers themselves not that long ago. They are most probably from rural areas in China and went to the cities to work. They have a lot of courage leaving by themselves to go to Africa and not exactly to live luxurious lives.
Don’t worry, I’m sure they can endure a little hardship; not like it matters to you though.
CHINESE ARE HARD WORKING & WELL MANNERED GOOD PEOPLE.
But their CCP govt is worse than Hitler's 3rd Reich!!
I saw a more extreme point of view in this film. The local people must maintain a primitive and poor life to be the best. Those farmers whose interests have been damaged are indeed poor, but the income of those workers working in factories is not mentioned. , Those women can just stay at home or do some farm work. The railways and roads built in China have enabled many people to do business. These benefits are not mentioned, but completely negative reports, which is very interesting.
Didnt u know, since 2years ago G7 said would compete with BRI? Few months ago G7 launch mega project 'europe gateway', but still confuse how to begin...😅
So use media like this, hope would hinder BRI reach further
Soon robot and ai Will replace them , and they Will be jobless people like USA

I taste a lot of sour grapes watching this video.
Western propaganda journalists
Chinese are intelligent and clever and they are allways eager to help "that is why I love them".They help without making noise or take credit unlike the western
They steal most things and dont play by the rules. Also they leave in droves for the west just like everyone else that talks about how great their countries are before they leave😂
@@jaydwy8069 steal what ???
@@medx1553 trade secrets, technology you name it. Every time they are employed in a western company it seems things "disappear" with them back to china. They cant build anything themselves. Or at least not complex things.

Changes... Hope.... for a better future. I think this is what many "reporters/journalist" just completely can not see. Blind to it.... China's today is due to its sacrifices yesterday. Not sure if this is inherently a Chinese thing (probably Asian thing), but they sacrifice the changes today, hoping for a better tomorrow.
New Silk Road consists of old and new routes. Old Silk road was sabotaged by empires along the route. Soviet era even blocked movements of goods. As a result, landlocked countries suffered. New Silk Road enabled landlocked countries to be landlinked. Also like ancient Silk Road, it's not a one way route. Benefiting countries along the route.
To be fair, traditional farmery and fishery disappearing because a new modern harbor and industry is building is nothing new. The same was done in the US and the EU, and yet no-one is arguing the situation in the West is now worse than it was 100 years before. So, yes, when progress happens, some of the non-industrial activities change or go away, but overall, things improve. Complaining about this by the West (or those affected) is understandable, but shortsighted, unless the West wants to go back to how things were done 200 years ago?
More power to China for helping Africa and Pakistan to develop, unlike their former Western colonial masters.
China doesn't "help", it's fishing you. Gonna use you really well, forcing your government do whatever they want, even against your interest. Thst isn't help. See Sri-Lanka for elaborate image of how good Chinese investments do..
@@freespiritable and what has the USA done for it's failed colony of Liberia? Or how about France's colony in Niger that's just ousted them in support of Russia? Predatory IMF loans, not saying China is not predatory but many nations prefer them to the Western IMF, or else they wouldn't be doing business with them
@@freespiritable You need to stop watching western propaganda against china. China is contributing to global economy on large scale. You think Tesla and Spacex are American tech?🤣🤣
@@freespiritableChina invest and the European Colonisers stole and still stealing peoples future... are you one of those thieves?
Why are the Djiboutians complaining the chinese don't work...pathetic. if you cannot build the whole thing yourselves please don't complain. He who is got the cash and knowledge is boss.
I am laughing after watching 2 young workers complained that they can't run trains after training by school. If a train accident happened, it can become a world news. Running trains is not running bicycle's.
This is not car. Even car need years of training .h ah aha ah a
It's funny when you have studied to do a job and then can't get it?
I heard one of the young workers ask the operator "what does this do?" in reference to the train controls and the operator explained to him. This part was not subbed in translation. How convenient?
@@danielwells774happens all the time... you need to keep trying
@@downtomars6268this a Western hypocritical journalist
"benefiting the people of all countries along the route" is something that is near impossible to be heard from an AMERICAN. Jeffrey Sachs is the only American that has the same vision.
Which cargo or container port area on Earth can let you take photo or video?
Check your container port at home city, even taking photos outside of the port parameters are subject to inspections before letting you go!
In America there are no security guards at the ports or airports because it's democracy, people are free to go wherever they want
Who are these silly journalists??? Clowns?
It is ironic that they plaster "propaganda video" watermark on the Pakistani terrorist group's video. Yet this whole video does not have the same watermark. Can you be any more slanted in this so called "documentary"? If you really want to be just, dial the time back to 18th and 19th century, do a comparison between how European and US treat Africa, MiddleEast, South America vs what Chinese are doing. I dare you.
Western portrayals of the Silk Road cannot resist the opportunity to find any negative aspect.
All modernization project have winners and losers. Training local people to the high standards demanded by China takes time. Would the west prefer the local people of Africa or Pakistan to remain uneducated, under-developed and poor for eternity?
The security at Gwadar is understandable as the terrorism is real and should be pointed out that the Baluchi terrorists are armed and funded by the United States via several NGOs the primary one, NED, an offshoot of the CIA. (the evidence is in their own website). Part of the US plan of destabilization and fragmentation of Pakistan and disruption of China's progress.
Eventually the countries and their people will benefit unlike the hundreds of years of colonial rule and wars brought by the west and US.
Well Said.
Thank for your hard work. Not easy at all travelling to all this places.
Narrator is biased and sounds ignorant and angry though the video is probably not completely related as the footage is very good but insider footage not outsider footage.
درودبرشما دوستان خوب متشکرم ازلطف شما
In any place of the world, you can always find someone full of complain. But you will always choose to believe them, even the terrorists. No matter what the Chinese did, they are always wrong. That's your key point, am I right? The Chinese came to invest: wrong. France did nothing, what a great nation! Shame on you!
Not so much wrong just ruthless and sneaky. Everybody gotta get the bag.

Straw man fallacy
Chinese people also worked hard to develop, every month colonial invasion hunt and seize any country. When I graduated from college in the 1980s, my monthly salary was less than 10 US dollars. Is it wrong for China to use its development experience to help people in the third world develop and become rich by relying on the Belt and Road?
U cant brng China down😂😂😂 thru this
In Australia we are idiots turning rail lines into pushbike tracks ,for tourists
Not really, coz of the labor rates mentioned, who can afford rates listed in Oz or USA.
Could we consider leasing the land instead of selling it to foreign countries, thereby ensuring long-term benefits for our African people for generations to come?
it's not the chinese company buy the land, it the local govenment
The "best" documentaries always come from the United States, which is no surprise at all.
With all the USAss lies/propaganda thrown in...

That proves they know business.
Bagaimana pun mereka senang bekerja sama dengan China.. lihatlah perubahan yang terjadi di Afrika sekarang..
If the Chinses acts like capitalist then there is a problem, got it! Do what I say, but don't do what I do!
why this channel shows negative side of china's side bcoz they are western pupet
It's nothing short of AMAZING!
I would like to ask, do poor areas need modernization? Modernization requires investment and factories. Are they living on the land that supports them all their lives? No no no. If they are willing to work in factories, one month's salary is enough to buy food for a year. Why can China develop? It is investment from Western countries, as well as loans from Hong Kong, Singapore, Japan and other countries. Modern China has been realized. Now China is willing to provide loans and investments to other countries, but Western countries are not happy, not because China has done anything wrong, but because some things are not done by Western countries.

Not sure what dem locals are complaining about.
I think it's a win win.
10:52 Damn man, this 11 year old boy is learning differential calculus with Gilbert Strang?
Yeah,
Differential calculus is taught in college, maybe senior in HS if you're super smart in the US. If you're an American with half of a brain you should see this is not going to end up well for your country. Better stop wasting your time with reality TV and gangster rap music.
China has come a long way ❤❤
11 yr old child learning derivatives. In the US, derivatives are not taught until senior in high school/college. That's assuming Americans even want to learn it. It was mastery of scientific & industry that propelled Europe/US to world domination. Anyone see a problem here? How many STEM students from China each yr? How many from US?
AND, they are catching Fire!!!
Is it available in the local market that is the problem
How can I get them here in Africa
good nice.
depend on mother nature or depend on industry grow to live a live is very different，choose the first one or the second one would effect your country become a modern country in future decades or not，china is offer a chance，not a result. I'm curious why the western country doesn't offer the same choice, since they colonist these country for centuries
Is this an old video?
I belong to a Nativ tribe in Pakistan, We know how Baloch sardars are treating the Baloch people of Pakistan. If China and Pakistan work in partnership to change the livelihood of poor people of the region these Baloch Sardar can be counted on fingers are attacking establishments with their private armed men. Their days are numbered anyway. No Chinese want to leave home and come and work in Gawader the day Gawader port is fully functioning it will be poor people of Balochistan and Pakistan who will work here this project is definitely beneficial to both China and Pakistan as well as Africa and Southeast Asia

The labor rates are so sad to hear
Please go to pay them $100 per hour yourself then
Pay is a relative thing. Relative to the standard in that country and relative to what the workers were doing before.
Salary is related to local productivity, and it was lower when China reformed and opened up
@@Jkl62200 You can't live on $56 a month anywhere.
@@danielwells774 who is getting paid $56/month ? Certainly not factory workers in China. Maybe you should check India.
The Chinese workers in Africa are humble, and are paid relatively low. $2,800 monthly for expats is a lot in Africa and decent in China, but is low for Europe or US. With all their productivity and assistance to the host countries , there is no air of arrogance , strutting and acts of superiority other than the necessary business hierarchy.
Contrast with Western expats in Africa who often produce very little or nothing but are tens of times the salaries that Chinese workers are paid , whilst living free in luxury home and strutting about like bosses with arrogance.

This is old an economics have changed in China. They no longer have a tiger economy but where wise and invested in NEW infrastructure. Like putting money aside in a retirement plan. They can weather a downturn and slowdown for 50 years or more. Alot of america and Europe is old and falling apart.

No crime and not spend everything for a roof over your head. Alot of people around the world are realizing cities are not the answer. If there is no food how will you feed yourself and your children? Plant a garden in your apartment LoL?

I won’t be buying one ,,electric cars are great but useless without a standard battery port so doesn’t matter what brand car it would fit ,so you can pull up at a service station and change your battery for a fully charged one
I don’t think it’s so troublesome. You don’t know how fast electric vehicle charging facilities are developing in China. A car with a range of 350 kilometers can be fully charged in only 6 minutes.
If you have been to China, you will know that wherever there are people, there is electricity, and the number of charging stations is far more than that of gas stations.
Who cares? BTW, if you are the last one owns a gas car, do you think you can find gas station?
