In my opinion it's not really a secret. When we were in Mozambique in 2016 there was a dispute with China over a construction project. Suddenly, work on another Mozambican government project with a different Chinese company stopped also. Shortly thereafter the dispute was resolved to the first Chinese company's benefit and work on both projects resumed. This is being replicated in nation after nation throughout Africa as China builds out their new Silk Road and takes the natural resources from the African countries.
 
I have had my problems with the Chinese. But after 20 years of visiting Africa, I now think that any outside influence may be stabilizing. Beneficial. They certainly can't function on their own................that is proven. The Chinese only want to take...they offer nothing to the infrastructure............but the African politicians only want to take...........and they are much more violent............55 African countries, 8 "States" ....63 total................all sinking at various rates. Hunt now. Don't wait until "everything is just right" .....it never will be............On the brighter side............well, there is no brighter side..............FWB
 
China pours in the money they are raking in from all over the world. Rest assured they will take a lot and make a bunch of corrupt politicians very wealthy.
 
It's no secret, they are taking over everywhere. Just returned from Costa Rica a couple of weeks ago. They are pumping money into there too, nice new bridges. And now Costa Rica does not recognize Taiwan, amazing what you can buy for a few dollars. Last year I was in Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore. Thirty years ago when I was in Bangkok, there were three "high rises" and they were hotels. Now those hotels look like low rise buildings. The money they are pumping into SE Asia is unbelievable.

Out of all the different color variations of Impala the black Impala just stands out with its beautiful pitch black hide.

Impala is one of the animals you will see all over Africa.
You can see them in herds of a 100 plus together.

This excellent ram was taken with one of our previous client this past season.
