China View: 'Africa, Pleased and Tortured By Oil'
China View published a People's Daily article on February 20, 2006 that says "Over the past year, African oil has leapt into international attention as world demand increases and price hikes. Along with ever enlarging exploration, extraction and sale, African producers, while gaining considerable profits, also see a series of problems such as environmental pollution, farmland damage and grain shortage," the article contends, adding:" So, people here always show mixed feelings when talking about oil."
China is a major player in African oil politics. For more, please see "Africa, pleased and tortured by oil."
