COULD THE MINING OF AFRICA'S RICH MINERALS CAUSE MORE HARM THAN GOOD?
This documentary highlights the struggles that Zambian nationals have faced overtime due to the mining of copper. The main question here could or would be, what are the measures taken by the government in ensuring the people's safety even whencarrying out such activities? Are these citizens being taken into consideration or its just a matter business as usual? Clearly they are suffering, some have died. The economic status of some people has changed drastically due to the expenses they are spending at hospitals. It's not fair and no explanation whatsoever would ever top the fact that people are drinking and utilising water contaminated with sulphiric acid on a daily basis. Health is as important as the economic development of a state. No health, no Economy.
