Chinese must change attitude towards blacks
What you need to know:
- But cases of racial discrimination against black Africans at the Chinese Restaurant in Nairobi prove that there is a hefty price to pay for our hospitality.
When the relationship between Kenya and the West turned sour, Nairobi courted Beijing.
We warmly welcomed the Chinese and they brought money, engineering prowess and speed in delivering infrastructure projects.
But cases of racial discrimination against black Africans at the Chinese Restaurant in Nairobi prove that there is a hefty price to pay for our hospitality.
It is unfortunate that Kenyans are being discriminated against by the Chinese 52 years after attaining self-rule.
How would they feel if we locked them out of our national parks because they pose a threat to our elephants and rhinos?
They don’t trust us but we entrust them with our billions of shillings and mega projects? They need to change their attitude.
