Recent disturbing developments in the South China Sea has made me thinking up to my bones about the quensequencies we will likely face, should there be a war between China and its neighbours in the disputed islands.But are Chinese and all claimants to those tiny islands thinking? <div><br></div><div>;In the 21st century,no country be it the proverbial big or small can claim supremacy over the other as the dynamics  have changed.</As we have witnessed these past decade, when mighty America with all its might and firepower engaged the less devoped ,less equiped tiny Iraq in a show to topple strongman  Saddam Huseini, did they win? Did they announce themselves winners?.Your guess is as Yours truely.Vertually, they left the  question unanswered ,left Iraq fragmented,disorgazed and a safe heaven for chaous.It is like the priverbial parlace-Mission unaccomplished ,Mission impossible.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>So, the above  scenario  calls us to  act  redponsibly</div></div>

A voice from afar is asking a question : Can China become a superpower ?.This question keeps coming from no other people but Chinese wishing and longing to surpass almighty America.This dream sounds nice but achieving such an elevated position is another thing.There are questions to answer by China, there are commitments to meet,there are changes that need to be made and there are great responsibilities to carry to be able to assure the world that China is ready to assume such a role.

When beggers die there are no comets in the sky- courtesy by Shakespeare.<div><br></div><div>What it means is that: When ordinary people die ,there won't be the usual funeral fanfare you will see when a prominent leader or a well to do dies .There will be no such large gathering when a down-trodden dies.</div><div><br></div><div>This shows how a layman is neglected and treated as inferior and low-levelled in society.</div>

'Things fall apart and the center can't hold. This is dubbed verbatim from the great poet in Africa, Chinua Achebe, RIP. I quote it in honor of him.He was a great poet, a novelist , an educationist. He brough life into African poetry, with his poetic tones, sharpness and wizardry. God receive him in your highest bossom!

The (feizhou xiong di) proclamation by Chinese people and their leaders is still afresh in the minds of Africans.We still remember those acolates and attributes Chinese poured onto Africans for standing behind them. Now, it seems to many Africans, especially those in China here, to feel like being stubbed at the back.&amp;nbsp;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Their concern and worry is how Chinese marginalised them, in terms of jobs opportunities here, selective justice in employment, making get employed here a go- no area for blacks without recourse to their ability to work. &amp;nbsp;They're whispering amongst themselves: Is it those who called us( xiong di) once a time all of a sudden changed that status quo? Is it a betrayal? These are some of the murmuring that go secretly.There is rumors that, (I say rumors not confirmed yet ) some cities don't allow Africans to get work permit. That Africans are unqualified to teach, only South Africa,but South Africa is also Africa.&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;How I wish Chinese will recollect ;what they voiciferously proclaimed to the whole world that (feizhou xiong di) will continue not only on African soil but right here in China. Our (xiong di ) shouldn't stop. Give your (xiong di ) work provided they qualified. Qualification to do a job shouldn't be tide to anything other than skills and ability and license in any field.&amp;amp;lt;div&amp;amp;gt;;Long live Chinese and the( feizhou xiong di.)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
