No one in his right mind thinks anyone can magically stop corruption. But having a deterrent system in place is a good start. We I have not heard of such a system in place or else it would have been reported here or elsewhere. What has been reported is corruption involving Chinese firms and the locals in Africa. Tanzania reportedly did not get the Chinese SOEs to build their railway after what they saw in Kenya. And of course, there are the rife reports of Chinese SOEs whitewashing for Najib in Malaysia.

While China has been promoting itself as a genuine investor, it should not give the West a chance to slur China as a new form of colonialists.

I see you are still under the illusion that China can affect what the West says about it through good behaviour.

I'll just say two words: Uighur genocide.

Africa is a big continent, plenty of African nations would love to have Chinese built infrastructure. It's not China's business how they run their country.

As for having a "deterrent system", China already has laws against corruption in business. What more are you expecting?

its not that easy. oh, you don't pay? you don't want this contract? no problem. how about every other project in the loop? we're going to look at the taxes very, very carefully.

we're going to do 13412344545134 environmental impact studies. if a single bug is impacted - oops, you are an ecological destroyer that kills entire ecosystems because this bug is actually a cornerstone species, that's $100 million in fines, but for reconsideration, we can lower it down to $10 million to me - merely 10x increase over the original ask.

you don't want those either? I have a certain adversary willing to pay $500k for me to go on CNN to say you're a debt trap imperialist. that's just 30 minutes of work for me. you're losing more and more by the second.
Some people here are just either being wilfully naive or ignorant of the realities of the world. There's not a single f..ng country that is not engage in some kind of corruption but with a different label. The anglos and the anglosized Chinese are so darn arrogant to think and act that their methods aren't a form of corruption just because they love to dress up their shit with "human rights" b.s. and diversity is our strength, along with enforcing other western narrative to their business dealings.

I mean if what has some here is insisting for China to do is to commit literal economic suicide I wonder if such utter high morality horse s..t isn't applied to any western powers. I mean no one bats an eye when the U.S. and their so called human rights religion seems to contradict by doing business with K.S.A. and other "authoritarian" countries around the world which includes China with their definition.
