China must tell their people when they go for visa to come to Ghana that they are not welcomed if they have plans for galamsey because the fight against them is fierce and ferocious than before. Ghana welcomes everyone but for China we have to be very cautious in inviting them. They have a hidden agenda.

We are a free & democratic society. Government does not tell our media what to do or say, unlike in your one-party dictatorship! If you feel slandered by any media, go to court and get justice.

Not only arresting them and confiscating their equipment and setting them free. Arraign them before our courts, give them fair trial unlike would have happened in that China land, if they are found guilty fine them and jail them, if they refuse to pay fine or cant pay fine, increase their jail terms, after serving their ters, their flights should be ready straight away to take them bacck to their beautiful and developed peoples' republic of china. Ours is underdeveloped but we love it and are prepared to protect it against savages and evil wealth minded people who cares about nothing except enriching themselves at the expense of the devastation of our environment. We have the responsibility to protect our frural folks and urban ones at large, our vulnerable old women and men, children. Foolishness, how dare the Chinese lecture government to restrain our media? Do they think this is China? This galamsey is happening live in Sovereign Ghana soil and we will eradicate it our own way, with our rules and laws, we do not ask support from any foreign government, same as Ghana government wont even dare giving advise to China on how to resolve their domestic issues. Nonsense.

The chinese or whoever that indulges in the galamsey must be stopped and kick out of the country or imprisonment. Chinese cannot come to our country and tell us what they want and telling us they are angry over galamsey from their country. If it is in their land that people are doing thus galamsey business, will they be happy? We are not foolish as they think all Africans are, China is a communist country and do not understand Democracy therefore we being a democratic country mustn't be fool to them. They are oppressed and they think they win over us. Please l want the chinese out of the country asap and check their immigration records in our country as well if they have over stayed then deport them. No nonsense this time in our country. We are wise enough to end all the bad things in our country. China cannot tells us they are angry of what we are telling their fucking people doing in our which we think is wrong. Chuck them out now now. If Ghanaian leaders are stupid then they should these silly chinese continue acting like that in our country and destroy our water bodies by contaminating with their so called galamsey. Fuccccckkkk yoooou China

PATRIOT thank you so much for being the only wise lone voice so far. I am surprised Ghanaians are blaming and heaping insults on China as if it was China which sent its citizen purposely to do illegal mining[galamsey] in Ghana.It is rather the corrupt chiefs and ghanaian public officials who should be blamed.They took monies from these Chinese and allowed them to do illegal mining in the country.Most of the illegal mining companies are for foreigners but is ghanaians who claim to own them.And yet Ghanaians are blaming China.For what?

That is agreed but saying Ghanaians are to blame so Inferring China shouldn't be held accountable is nonsensical. All involved need to be brought to account!

In China the communist party has the final say about everything, from what people eat, how many children they can have, how they dress to how men wear their beards. Thank God Ghana is not China. No Central Committee of any political party in Ghana can dictate to the media. If you feel offended by any media publication, you can sue for justice. Fortunately, unlike in some other countries, our courts too do not take orders from political parties.

China Mission should clearly understand that no one criticising galamsey mentioned Chinese leadership. As a matter of fact we have lots of respect for the Chinese government. Similarly we respect and acknowledge the contributions of China and the Chinese legitimate businesses in Ghana such as China Railway, China Water, Executive Mining, CK Mining, Shanxi Mining, China Geo, Jiangxi, Greenstone Quarry, and many uncountable investment by the Chinese in Ghana. We however condemn Chinese who are in Ghana to engage in illegal activities including galamsey. We equally condemn Ghanaians in China engaging in illegal activities. China must inform their citizens to be law abiding else they will be arrested like any criminal and deported. Recently a Ghanaian student who paid all her university fees to read medicine in one Chinese university was deported three weeks after arrival in the university accused of prostitution without refund of the fees paid by the student. She was deported without investigation or whatsoever. Ghana doesn't deport haphazardly like China. Ghana must deport criminals who are conniving with some Ghanaians to destroy our water bodies or risk the public attacking such nation wreckers.

You will not see millions of Japanese coming to Africa with their racism. The Chinese are stealing Ghana's fish too. If Ghana needs money go to Japan, South Korea and even Brazil. They don't want Blacks in China, but they are polluting Africa with millions of their racists.

Ghana is not Tibet, Xinjiang Province, or the South China Sea. Ghana is not a dictatorship and the media is free unlike China.

The Chinese, Indians, Lebanese and all those racists who don't want Blacks in their country should go away.

And their products and infrastructure don't last.

Everyone complicit of Galamsey should be punished to make the system fair, and truly deter galamsey operators and those that will facilitate them. Whether it be chieftains, police, operators (domestic or foreign). Because if we don't, I guarantee to you in twenty years time there will not be a Ghana that will be habitable for anyone.
China has a horrible policy btw for human and environmental rights for it's own people, let's not pretend it's going to treat Africans any better. They're just embarrassed that there are images of their people being justly arrested by Ghanaians. A righteous country would be apologising for polluting our drinking water and killing our crops, not telling us to look the other way.

The Chinese are also complicit in the illegal mining. Corruption is not unidirectional. Both the person's who pay and receive bribes are all equally guilty. Besides the Chinese Mission in Ghana cannot say they don't know their nationals involved in Galamsey. How do those Chinese launder the money back to their country?
