That's kinda the point? The chink convinced the kang for something likely unnecessary.

Chinkshopping on a state level

Dear kang

Railroad will be good

Real life

At this point, someday China will just own Africa

thinking back to the chink in congo documentary, the Kenyan one was probably super fucking ruined

not to say the chinks didn't chink them a whole lot tho

built around 1900

"Throughout the journey we catch glimpses of the lunatic line’s replacement. Unlike the British railway, which follows the contours of the land to some degree, the new construction punches straight through the landscape, as railways in China do."

China’s Eximbank loaned Kenya 90 per cent of the money for a project that was built by China Road and Bridge Corporation. What raised eyebrows was the railway’s US$3.2 billion price tag, 50 per cent more than similar projects in neighbouring countries. As of 2016, Kenya’s external debt amounted to seven times its annual budget, with China accounting for 60 per cent of these loans. The Kenyan government says the railway will increase gross domestic product by 1.5 per cent and that the loan will be paid back in four years. But many are sceptical. Kenya grapples with spectacularly widespread graft.

perhaps [citation needed] but lol if tru

half the world is in debt with China tbh

So is China with half of the world, cause that's how the system works..

They don't have duct tape in China and I'm trying to figure out why

Asians use packing tape for everything, more strength needed more tape

Packing tape sucks though

Trick is to use a lot of tension and layers

both are shitty temporary fixes that wind up permanent anyway
