今日の記事はaljazeera.comからです

Africa is not poor, we are stealing its wealth, その訳,

By Nick Dearden, Global Justice Now,

May 2017

はい、読み上げながら、まとめながら、訳しましょう！

----------------------------

"Africa is poor, but we can try to help its people.”

It’s a simple statement, repeated through a thousand images, newspaper stories and charity appeals each year, so that it takes on the weight of truth – it creates our image of Africa.

Try something different: Africa is rich, but we steal its wealth.

According to a report by campaigning groups, Africa loses $41bn ($410億) a year to the rest of the world – although $161bn ($1,610億) goes in, $203bn ($2,030億)flows out.

Multinational corporations “steal” around 6.1% of Africa’s GDP (3 times what it receives in aid) legally by pretending they are generating their wealth in tax havens (税金回避地)

Then there’s $30bn ($300億) in profits that corporations make in Africa but send back to their home countries.

Money also leaves more indirectly:

$29bn ($290億) is stolen in illegal logging, fishing, and trade in wildlife.
$36bn ($360億) is owed because of damage from climate change (Africa did not cause global warming, but is suffering the consequences) but rich nations are not paying.

In addition, a lot of money flowing in just generates debt:

Ghana is losing 30% of government tax revenue 税収 to debt repayments 債務返済.
An aluminum smelter (製錬所) in Mozambique costs £21 for every £1 that the government receives.

The money also undermines the creation of public services (in Uganda and Kenya schools set up with British aid are now being closed down to open publicly-owned schools)

Of course, some people are benefiting – there are now 165,000 very rich Africans, who own $860bn ($8,600億) but ordinary Africans never see this money ($500bn of this is being kept in tax havens.…)

So what’s the answer?

“The key task is to dismantle the system extracting wealth from Africa.” (quote from the .pdf)
Africans need to be able to control the way they let corporations invest
And they should be careful of resource extraction: countries with abundant mineral wealth (鉱物資源) experience poorer democracy, weaker economic growth, and worse development. However in principal Africa is rich in natural resources – see infographic.

And the world needs to create a true international aid system that is not based on voluntary donations
but on reparations for damages caused (BBC: COP26: Rich countries ‘pushing back’ on paying for climate loss)

Firstly though, we must change the way we talk and think about Africa.

We are not, currently, “helping” Africa.

Africa is rich.

We need to stop stealing its wealth.

Hey listeners what do you think?

Your turn to vent!

Would you like some tea?
