China's disregard for the life of its own citizens at home and abroad is surpassed only by its morbid treatment of Africans both in China and in the African continent. This is nowhere more blatant than in its mine safety record. China's abysmal mine safety record at home is surpassed only by the recklessness of its mines in African countries such as Zambia. When Chinese owners of mines in Zambia are not shooting their workers, the working conditions at the mines are left to be so deplorable that they could simply be seen as death traps. How can China care about the lives of Africans when it does not care about the lives of its own citizens? It is this reckless disregard for human life that has led China to go around the world conniving with dictators in an apparent display of political neutrality.
