The puppet master has come to see his puppets! Surely how low can we get? From Kenyans Airways owners, Indian Prime Minister to Jacob Zuma! This man has come here to push George Kunda and Rupiah Banda to mount pressure on those pushing for mining taxes. Why should we sign an agreement with the Indians when they need us more that we need them? To this day they discriminate against their darker skinned citizens and which *****s think they can love us?

indians will always think of making money out of black africa. Only in Nigeria and congo they have failed to exploit our brethern. They will never develop you or your country even if they hold zambian citizenship.
They fill all but the cheapest posts with indians from india. 1 broke white man does more for the comunity then 10 rich indians. Wake up.
