Uganda's President Admits: Expelling Indians in 1972 was a "Mistake" | Vantage with Palki Sharma
Uganda's President Yoweri Museveni has admitted that expelling Indians in the 70s was a "mistake". Uganda's former dictator Idi Amin had expelled Indian, Pakistani and Bangladeshi citizens from Uganda - leading to a mass exodus from the country. About 80,000 Indians living in Uganda at the time had to leave their homes and thriving businesses to migrate to safer places. Palki Sharma tells you how Museveni's admission sets an example.

Correction! My family who left before Idi Amin expelled the Asians never waned to go back. Most of the Asians were not interested to go back and those who went back to reclaim their properties sold them and returned. They lost trust and most of us who settled in the west are very prosperous. Palki when you said there are 35,000 Indians in Uganda, most of them are first generation Indians who went from India. When we visited Uganda we saw Indians who came directly from India and not the former Ugandan Indians. Once bitten twice shy. Only a handful of former Ugandan Indians went back to do business in Uganda. Majority refused. President Museveni and I personally met in USA and he extended invitation to our family to come back but we politely turned it down.

Amin did not deport anyone. Firstly, he told Britain take all its citizens with them. All persons holding British citizenship was asked to leave. Britain did not want the Indians because The UK racist government decided that there were too many Indians already in the UK. Britain then asked India to take them and India refused stating that they were not Indian citizens. Amin was used as the fall guy to cover up The UK 's colonial racist policies aganist native Ugandans. All Indians asked to leave were holders of UK citizenship. How can you receive independence from from one guy and then your economy is in the hands of foreigners.The British used the Indians, their Neocolonial puppets of Tanzania, and the fact that Amin had sided with the Muslims, to discredit him and remove him from office. Then the British and their cohorts began the recolonization of Uganda The British have released all the files now . Go and check it out. Same thing happened to Muammar Gaddafy, Saddam Hussein , Bashur Assad, Zia Al Huq etc. Why was it a problem for the Indians to return to their own country? Why did they have to remain where they were not wanted when they themselves despised the native Africans. Indians come from a racist society and thats they only way the live among other people. So they need to be in India. Amin was right. Just like Trump, and everyone else who ask people who are displacing the rights of the indiginous people to leave. Arabs ask people to leave their countries every day . India did the same to the people of Bangladsh also. The Indians should have returned to India or follow the British to the U K. Museveni was wrong and is still wrong and is too political to admit the truth. All those Amin movies are UK propaganda.. 0:04

Prove me wrong. Now answer these questions: Would Indians or whites allow black people or black Africans to behave in their home countries the way they have and often still do in Africa. Would they accept the same kind of attitudes from black people in their homelands? There needs to be a lot more honesty in this conversation and a lot more historical and current context inserted.

By the time Amin left, the economy was dead. The economies around us were far ahead. We were importing everything from Kenya mainly.. Am not referring to the current situation.

If you need another example, is Zimbabwe .... Farms were owned and run by the whites.. you wake up and give it to a chap who has not even tilled a small garden for his domestic use. What do you expect?? Chaps were given shops, factories, etc. When the Indians left UG, the best was to loot the shops . In reference to the current situation.. frankly speaking, a few Ugandans have the capital or skills to invest in manufacturing rather they do in other sectors... the Asians do have the capacity and are doing it

Many people who had settled in India from Bangladesh during the war with Pakistan that India instigated were asked by India to return to their countries. All over Europe and North America, the same countries that condemned Amin are currently asking migrants from the Ukraine, and the Arab countries to leave their shores. Mynamar is doing it right now to some other refugees. And Trump did it and will be doing it very soon.All those fake movies and lies were made to hide the real story of who the real devils were and the games they played with the Ugandans and the Indians. Go and get the files. They have been declassified. Amin held a meeting with all the concerned heads of states: the British, US, French, Indians Pakistanis and others , where he informed them that he was going to ask The UK to take all its citizens out of the newly Independent Uganda. After all if you are independent you need time and space to mold your citizens and plan for the future. The Indians were used as buffers between the Uganďans and the British colonizers who were robbing, stealing and abusing the Africans.They hated Amin because he was an independant thinking muslim.

[@merchantcharles1954]

Still why did you not return to your homeland? Why do Indians in Africa keep dodging these questions. They hate Africans but they are after the African resouces. Arabs do not buy the mess that if you make a baby in Saudi Arabia the cild is an Arab. Neither does china, but the colonizer had forced this mess on the Africans through their education system.
