Not like that current puppet Museveni of the West and foreigners who's still keeping indians to dominate the economy of Uganda. Foreign domination of the country's economy exploits the indigenous citizens. Black Africans are always hated and mistreated in Asia, Europe, etc. You don't find Africans dominating economy in Europe and Asia. So that thing shouldn't exist for foreigners in Africa too.

My first flight as a trainee cabin attendant in 1972 was Bombay-Nairobi-Uganda-Nairobi. Uganda-Nairobi being a "refugee evacuation" Flight. I got off in Nairobi while the refugee flight continued onwards to Mumbai with a fresh crew. I saw first hand the ravages of a displaced population. People weeping and wailing, dazed and traumatized fleeing Idi Amin's barbaric rule, leaving their homes and possessions behind. Whatever little money and jewellery they had managed to bring with them, was taken away at the airport by the airport guards. I remember an old gentleman being carried on board by his children because the guards had broken his wooden leg looking for hidden money! There were two dead bodies being shipped back to BOM on this flight. The next day I was back on another evacuation flight NBO-BOM with the same heart wrenching scenario. In my 37 years of flying I have operated dozens of evacuation flights around the world bringing back our people from war torn zones, but these earlier flights shook me the most.

Hitler proposed to the British Prime Minister Chamberlain, that should he take 5 millions blood sucking Jews out of Deutschland Germany, Hitler agreed NOT to invade England. What did Prime Minister Chamberlain did? He left those 5 million Jews to be genocide in Germany.

Yet, you believe that Idi Amin was the African Hitler to Indian Asians. Where are those deported Indians Asians today?

This kind of expulsion also came when crime was high so Bihar earned the title of "hell" , "garbage" and is looked down in other states. Ppl realised this mistake after few years, but the damage had been done....we still haven't recovered from that. The whole state is literally dependent on government jobs as no good private company come to Bihar bcoz of past fear, some like L&T returned but they don't take projects in rural area which is 95% Bihar.

So, they had been there for many generations since British colonialism. That's why they speak good English. This is certainly by no means to justify the brutality of colonialism and slave labor committed by the British. Furthermore, the British made sure to divide the Africans and Indians against one another. The British does this by favouring one group over the other, which is what you see in this documentary and why things happen the way it did. If you noticed, many of the Indians were still carrying British passports and not Ugandan passports. Why did they refuse to transition into having Ugandan passports?

Uganda's 80,000 Asians were mostly from the Indian subcontinent and born in the country, their ancestors having come to Uganda in search of prosperity when India was still a British colony. Many owned businesses, including large-scale enterprises, which formed the backbone of the Ugandan economy. Amin expropriated businesses and properties belonging to the Asians and the Europeans and handed them over to his supporters. Without the experienced owners and proprietors, businesses were mismanaged and many industries collapsed from lack of operational expertise and maintenance. This proved disastrous for the already declining Ugandan economy. At the time, Asians accounted for 90% of the country's tax revenue; with their removal, Amin's administration lost a large chunk of government revenue. The economy all but collapsed.

Because of lack of economics along with husbandry==veterinary=== all aspects of farming across the country these farms went to chaos and failed causing national food shortages. Today Zimbabwe is asking these farmers to return with financial incentives to rehabilitate their lands and start farming. Apartheid was grievous, heinous, and every deviant word in the dictionary, however, when it finally ended their was no intelligent and logical plan to maintain the country economically which is the stability of every nation. The government operated on a "If your white hand it over if your black take it" without consideration of overall look at profit---how profitable was what and who needed to stay. I will be attacked for racism, however, this is how and why these economies and countries do not thrive...their is no rationale for who they put in office....regardless of the injustice system of previous governments a nation must look at why it succeeded, how, and the economic structure that kept it stable.
