With several neighboring countries, including Russia, with some countries in South America. I understand that Nigeria is the first, or the first large, African country. The main point is that the man from Standard Bank expects this to take care of a large part of China's trade with Africa in four years time.

It's true ladies and gentlemen about these bias news articles, but one has to take it with a grain of salt (figure of speech, ask me if you don't know what it means). All books and articles of any kind and in any country will be bias. How much is it or what is the intent of the writing the author hopes to achieve depends on the readers perspective. It's the nature of the beast in journalism I guess, but sometimes I don't agreed to it, but accept for what it is, not a wholly end to all truth.
I learned to take account of differences when, from the age of seven or eight, I read the two papers my parents took in as well as the paper they exchanged with neighbors. Somewhat later I listened to the Dutch radio news at 8 in the morning and to the Belgian radio news an hour later ( that was followed by a review of the Belgian press ). That showed that the world had very different news to tell to the Belgians than to Dutch people. So I always wonder why journalists make the choices they make ( culture, interest of the publisher or whatever ) and whether my view of the world needs to be adjusted.

For all those people screaming lead paints, it's about time they know who's the one whose decision it was that led to their kids play with lead paint, and it certainly wasn't just the sole fault of the Chinese.

It may not all the Chinese fault, but there were firms who genuinely thought their products had lead free paint. Their fault was not to install a system of batch testing. Plus there was the usual indigenous chinese manufacturer using lead paint.

57 million outbound trips made by Chinese in one year... Doesn't sound like a country that prevents people from leaving let alone rich people with money to spend.
