China in Somalia: Flexing the Bicep in the Zone
David James - 8/2/2007
China has sent shivers across the spines of major global economies after 
winning an oil exploration deal in the north of the war torn Somalia. But it 
is not such a surprise to corporate executives who might have foreseen the 
eminence of Chinese deal makers break in Somalia. The move was guaranteed 
and the results perfectly stashed in the duffel of Chinese Oil Company. A 
wake up call to the peace process brokers and the members of the European 
Union and the African Union.
The delicate situation in Somalia would easily be resolved through 
investments not selfish and self centre government backed corporate ventures 
as has been the case of the United States . America has covertly applied the 
outsourcing policy to attain its energy objectives by taming Somalia 's 
lawlessness masterminds to acquire the expanse of the desert which is said 
to have oil deposits. American companies have already used the private 
military contractor Black Water to seek strategic partners in diversifying 
the interests of these companies. Black Water and some other private 
military contractors have sourced vital information, sought the confidence 
and friendship of TFG premier Ghedi forcing his repute to become a base of 
extremism.
Islamic insurgency has evolved through this policy of direct involvement of 
America in the Somalia issue. The exposure of Ethiopian intelligence liaison 
with the American intelligence and the assault on the resources of the 
Somali land stokes controversy while literally explaining why the US 
desperately tries to finance warlords to stem insurgency. The 
recommendations of Korean arms by American generals for the Ethiopian 
platoons in Somalia, the efforts by Chevron, Amoco and a horde of US 
companies to have oil concessions in the country and worse the American 
assault on Islamic Jihadist's allied to Al Qaeda doesn't auger well in the 
delicate country. This has been the wild card in the Chinese game. The 
Americans have their hands tied with un-pleasantries while the Chinese have 
goodies and implement able economic reforms whose long-term repercussions 
however hazardous are in order since they suffice to bring about peace and 
progress. China has flexed its muscle and is challenging the West's clout in 
the third world and its approach towards peace reforms. China has 
incorporated workable ideologies for Somalia and similar areas. It perceives 
the notion of proffering long-term solutions rather than financial aid with 
strings attached, a policy African nations have sought after morosely. The 
West has to rethink its financial aide and grants policy to the third world 
urgently before the confidence reposed in it wanes.
In Somalia China will comfortably advice and restructure the Somali politics 
and industrial sector by adopting to play the advisor who doesn't want to be 
paid but to earn his pay and get home and dry unlike the West who wants a 
permanent place in any of his ventures and interests. The China muscle in 
Somalia will get stronger with the possibility of its electricity companies 
taking on energy contracts in Somalia and the introduction of modern banking 
in Mogadishu will certainly edge out any hope of Americas efforts in the 
Somalia being a hazy dream.
