China: Africa: China is building churches for Christians. In Africa
The Chinese construction companies offer lower prices and better conditions.
The paradox of a country where religious freedom is denied, which builds
houses of worship elsewhere, and prints Bibles for Christians who within its
borders cannot practice their faith.
Saturday, September 24, 2011By Asia News
Nairobi (AsiaNews / Agencies) - Chinese companies are building churches in
Africa for all the various Christian denominations, taking over a job in the
past occupied by Europe, and more recently by U.S. companies. At the
Basilica of the Holy Family in Nairobi, for example, the Zhongxing
Construction company is building a new building for the offices of the
archdiocese of Nairobi.
"We worked with them previously, and we had a positive experience. We held a
public competition, and they presented the best offer," said an official of
the diocese. In the past, countries that sent missionaries to Africa also
built places of worship. "Our brothers in faith, along with their companies
helped to build churches. Now China has become a world power and wants to
have a grip on Africa too”, said Ugandan Anglican Bishop Stanley Ntagali of
Masindi-Kitara diocese in an interview.
In Kenya, the Chinese are building houses for the staff of the Archdiocese
of Nairobi, as well as erecting a church for a national Pentecostal group,
Evangelist Ministers of the faith. Another company, Fubeco Ltd (China
Funshin) is building, the Catholic church of Our Lady of the Rosary, in
Kiambu near Nairobi. The same company had built Luther Plaza, the
headquarters of the Lutheran Church of Kenya. China, moreover, is a leading
partner in trade with Africa, in 2009, surpassing both France and the UK.
And in the construction sector regularly beats competitors offering lower
costs.
China is also printing most of the Bibles used by Christians in Africa.
Although religious freedom in China, especially for Christian denominations
not recognized by the regime, is denied. Amity Printing Company, has doubled
the number of Bibles printed in 2007, from six to 12 millions copies. And
most of them spill out onto the African market. "The contracts go to China
to print Bibles because it offers lower prices than any country in the West,
" says Jesse Mugambi, a professor of sociology of religion at the University
of Nairobi.
