Nobody Will Ever Answer This Question Satisfactorily

That’s exactly the point all billionaires are in senior government positions. So they don’t know how to build and if they do, they know that it’s unsustainable because it is dependent on currying favour within the government to maintain their wealth. Look at the past, how many industries did Moi cripple in the name of power and for personal benefit? Same with Uhuru, isn’t Keroche being harassed so Uhuru & co. can take over? Same with the banking industry isn’t NCBA taking over?

Kenya doesn’t have rule of law so all institutions are weak and dependent on who the president is. We all want to defend tribal kings and vote for mtu wetu. The few who can work are never given votes. We shall continue as we are until we decide we’vpoint I have never forgotten.

INSTABILITY.Sub sahara Africa is moving from small scale internal conflict to international well coordinated chaos. It is no coincidence that ISIS largest bases are now in subsahara Africa. Capital loves stability both economic and political. It is cheaper for the owners of capital to fund terrorists and rebels and cart away the minerals from cheap child labor than set up a a billion dollar factory that an idiot like magufuli will come and nationalize at a whim.

Kuweni serious bana, all these earlier Chinese innovations that you guys have mentioned were simply based on knowledge transfer from the USSR, China couldn’t even feed herself.

China is adjacent to the USSR and she was more or less a satellite state. When you say that China desired nukes and satellites in the 1950s, what you really mean is that the USSR planted nukes in China just in case the enemy ever attacks the USSR from the south, China can just hammer them using those Russian nukes!

China demanded for this technology from Kruschev.

Kruschev didn’t want to share but he had to or he would lose his strongest ally. He sent over 1400 Russian scientists to China.

A passage about Project 596 China’s first nuke :

In the 1940s and 1950s, a group of leading scientists including Qian Xuesen, Deng Jiaxian and Qian Sanqiang returned to mainland China from abroad.[3][4][5]

In January 1955, Mao Zedong expressed the intention of developing atomic bombs during a meeting of the Secretariat of the Communist Party of China.[6]

In 1956, hundreds of experts were called by Zhou Enlai, Chen Yi, Li Fuchun and Nie Rongzhen to make plans for China’s scientific development, eventually creating an outline of development for the period from 1956 to 1967 (1956-1967年科学技术发展远景规划纲要).[7]

In 1957, China and the USSR signed an agreement on sharing defense technology that involved an atomic bomb prototype being supplied by Moscow to Beijing, technical data, and an exchange of hundreds of Russian and Chinese scientists.[8]

In 1958, Mao formally announced the development of nuclear bombs, missiles and satellite.[6] At the same time, the Soviet Union had provided China with important assistance since 1955, even though on December 10, 1957, the Soviet Union proposed that the United States, the United Kingdom, and the USSR should halt nuclear weapons tests for the next two to three years, to which China supported.[8][9][10]
