From 1977 – 1978 during my studies at Sciences Po Grenoble during the year preceding my graduation, I already knew that Africa should find its own way outside the beaten paths and tracks of neo-colonialism.

In this sense, I supported a research work on the urgent need for Africa to completely turn the page on colonization and neo-colonialism and to direct its resources towards the Chinese Model of Development. practical work, at the level of the socio-economic and financial development of African countries, I advocated the reduction of strategic alliances of Western and Soviet powers in favor of the direct construction of bilateral relational bases with China.

Thus, Africa should continue the application and adaptation of Chinese methods at the level of the establishment of an Authentic National Development aimed at the progressive removal of any colonialist metropolitan vigils and any outward-looking development strategy exclusively oriented towards satisfaction of external requests.

For this, on the eve of the 1980s, Africa should therefore launch economic programs aimed at rebalancing internal deficits at all levels, in particular by discarding any orientation or strategic advice seeking to maintain the legacy of colonialism as an instrument of manipulation. and exploitation of Africa’s human and natural resources. Strategies that are imported with the direct complicity of local ruling elites who collaborated with the colonial system.

Military-bureaucratic and technocratic elites who prioritized their respective privileges through the continuation of neo-colonial relations of cooperation, technical advice and investment. Such relations were concentrated primarily in mining and through the installation on the national territory of military units for security and the strengthening of authoritarian and personal powers. This subjectivation of national interests to the continuation of relations of dependence on former colonial countries was justified and fed by subsidies and financial, technical and military aid received from outside aimed at establishing regimes in the pay colonial powers.

Regimes that are continually challenged by opponents of all kinds, since the Heads of State were trained and of external connivance and had no direct socially beneficial relationship with the popular masses. An African people who are in the continual expectation of real national emancipation, social progress and economic improvement from the continual and constant deterioration of their living conditions.

To remedy these flaws, I have therefore develop concrete proposals that I had included in my presentation at the end of the academic year in the Seminar on Economic Development and this as a report on my research about Africa.

I was completely quarantined and punished (this fanatic gave me a mark of 9.5 while 10 was the mark to pass to the next year, so he made me repeat the year causing me to lose a year and the possibility of acquiring my diploma and going to pursue my higher studies of Doctorate in Brighton at the Institute of Development Studies.

All this made me lose even my social relations of that time. The Equity and intellectual probity of Sciences Po Grenoble as a haven of the Progressive Left had received by this an unprecedented low blow. As Etudiant Maghrébin, this low blow confirmed what we were receiving in the rest of French society nostalgic and still traumatized by the decay of colonialist politics and the continued loss of African colonies.

Daring to challenge the status quo and the place of France and the West on the African chessboard showed the true face of this “Colonialist and Fascist Teacher” of the first degree, a vegetable leaf that hid the revanchist colonialist jungle.

Despite all the losses incurred, time and my destiny reveal to me that it was the right position to take and defend and if I have to do it again, I will stand in the same way and defend Africa as I continue doing it through these lines of thoughts and desires.

I let you read more in the following texts and the corresponding articles:

Dés 1977 – 1978 durant mes études a Sciences Po Grenoble durant l’année précédent mon obtention du diplôme, je savais déjà que l’Afrique devrait trouver sa propre voie en dehors des sentiers et des pistes battus du néo-colonialisme.

Dans ce sens, j’ai soutenu un travail de recherche sur le besoin urgent pour l’Afrique de tourner complètement la page de la colonisation et du néo-colonialisme et d’orienter ses ressources vers le Modèle Chinois de Développement. Dans un séminaire de travaux pratiques, au niveau du développement socio-économique et financier des pays Africains, j’ai préconisé la réduction des alliances stratégiques des puissances occidentales et soviétiques en faveur de la construction directe de bases relationnelles bilatérales avec la Chine. 

Ainsi, l’Afrique devrait poursuivre l’application et l’adaptation des méthodes chinoises au niveau de la mise en place d’un Développement National Authentique visant l’écartement progressif de toute veillâtes métropolitaines colonialistes et toute stratégie de développement extravertie tournée exclusivement vers la satisfaction des demandes de extérieure. 

Pour cela a la veille de la décennie des années 80, l’Afrique devrait donc lancer des programmes économiques visant a rééquilibrer les déficits internes a tous les niveaux notamment en écartant toute orientation ou conseil stratégique cherchant a maintenir des séquelles du colonialisme comme instrument de manipulation et d’exploitation des ressources humaines et naturelles de l’Afrique.  Des stratégies qui sont importées avec la complicité directe des élites locales dirigeantes ayant collaborées avec le système colonial. 

Des élites militari-bureaucratiques et technocratiques qui accordaient la priorité a leurs privilèges respectifs a travers la continuation des rapports néo-coloniaux de coopération, de conseils techniques et d’investissement.  De telles relations se concentraient en premier dans l’extraction minière et a travers l’installation sur le territoire national d’unités militaires et cela pour la sécurité et le renforcement des pouvoirs autoritaires et personnels. Cette subjectivation des intérêts nationaux a la continuation de rapports de dépendance a l’égard des anciens pays coloniaux se justifiaient et s’alimentaient par les subventions et les aides financières, techniques et militaires reçue de l’extérieur visant a asseoir des régimes a la solde des puissances colonialistes. 

Des régimes qui sont continuellement contestés par des opposants de toute nature vu que les Chefs d’Etat étaient de formation et de connivence extérieure et n’ayant aucune directe relation socialement bénéfique aux masses populaires.  Un peuple Africain qui est dans la continuelle attente d’une réelle émancipation nationale, d’un progrès social et d’une amélioration économique de la continuelle et constante dégradation de leurs conditions d’existence.

Pour remédier a ces tares, j’ai donc élaboré des propositions concrètes que j’avais inclus dans ma présentation a la fin de l’année universitaire au sein du Séminaire sur le Développement Economique et cela comme un rapport sur ma recherche a propos de l’Afrique.Je fus complètement mis en quarantaine et punis (ce énergumène me donna la note de 9.5 alors que 10 était la note pour passer a l’année suivante, donc il m’a fait redoubler l’année me faisant perdre une année et la possibilité d’acquérir mon diplôme et d’aller poursuivre mes études supérieures de Doctorat a Brighton a l’Institute of Development Studies.

Tout cela me fit perdre même mes relations sociales de cette époque. L’Équité et la probité intellectuelle de Sciences Po Grenoble en tant que Havre de la Gauche Progressiste avait reçu par cela un coup bas sans précédent. Comme Etudiant Maghrébin, ce coup bas confirmait ce que nous recevions dans le reste de la société Française nostalgique et encore traumatisée par le délabrement de la politique colonialiste et les pertes de colonies continuelles africaines.

Malgré toutes les pertes encourues, le temps et mon destin me révèlent que c’était la bonne position à prendre et à défendre et si je dois le refaire, je me tiendrai de la même manière et défendrai l’Afrique comme je continue à le faire à travers ces lignes de pensées et de désirs.

Oser défier le statu-quo et la place de la France et de l’occident sur l’échiquier Africain montra le vrai visage de cet “Enseignant Colonialiste et Fasciste” de premier degré, une feuille végétale qui cachait la jungle colonialiste revancharde.

In the United States of America

In fact since 1995, serving as Vice President of the International Business Commission within the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce, I had already established direct and consulting relationships with Chinese officials, including Mr. Liu the Vice-Mayor of Beijing.

I also organized the visit of a delegation made up of members of research centers, businessmen and leaders of the provinces of Yunnan, Dalian and other regions of China.

Our prayers and thoughts go out to the valiant Chinese People for their recovery and for that of the Peoples of this World currently suffering from this epidemic which we hope will be banished from all our memories and from our human history by the scientific and divine will, Ameen. 03/30/2020

En Hommage a André Malraux

Malraux was a proud Frenchman, but he also saw himself as a citizen of the world, a man who loved the cultural achievements of all of the civilizations across the globe. [32] At the same time, Malraux criticized those intellectuals who wanted to retreat into the ivory tower, instead arguing that it was the duty of intellectuals to participate and fight (both metaphorically and literally) in the great political causes of the day, that the only truly great causes were the ones that one was willing to die for.

The United States and China is not about sitting around a piecemeal or an entire meal.

Everything that America and China exchange like food of thought is not really representative of their culinary skills neither the level of their appetite.

Panda Express is not Chinese Food and McDonald is not American Food. They are distorted cultural clones and we can multiply the examples existing between what is served in the street and what is eating at the White House and at 总统府

So putting piecemeal in the mouth of the Biden Administration is not politically correct neither diplomatic adequate given the outgoing negotiation conducted under the table

Chinese diplomats are known for their wise and slow approach that have served them well in achieving gains when decisions are concerned about the building of independence space around China. The diplomatic history of the Modern China was built on patience and perseverance as well as focus on the result not the ways to achieve it

While the modern diplomatic approach of America is still influenced by the doctrines inherited from the Second World War where the function of the “Gendarme” that regulates the content of responsibilities and organizes the traffic around the globe – 10-18 – 2021
