The stigma we carry
Re: Chinese influence in Samoa
We as an ethnic group carry a stigma with the outside world from NZ, Australia and in the US.
To them, we ethic Samoans, are dumb people. The prime minister and PS Jeffrey here are prime examples.
I explained to a white man about this immigration thing with Chinese and he looked at me and asked simply; ‘’You only have a small piece of rock, why would you invite people from a country a million times bigger than yours to take up your space?”.
I explained the logic by the government as promoted by BS Jeffrey here. And he frowned and said; “Are your people that dumb that you need foreigners to teach you how to survive?”
Are we BS Jeffery?
