Sudanese official to start China visit on Friday
June 29, 2010 (KHARTOUM) — The Sudanese presidential assistant Nafie Ali Nafie will fly to China on Friday for talks that will focus mainly on the economic ties.
Sudan official news agency (SUNA) reported that Nafie, who is the deputy chief of the ruling National Congress Party (NCP), with meet with officials from the Chinese communist party to discuss progress of the relations between Khartoum and Beijing and ways to bolster the cooperation in areas of agriculture, dams and electricity sectors.
It is likely that the issue of the South Sudan referendum scheduled for early next year will be discussed particularly in light of having most of the country’s oil reserve in the South.
About 75% of Sudan’s proven reserves of 6.3bn barrels are in the south but the pipeline that carries the oil to export terminals and refineries runs through the north.
China is the largest foreign investor in Sudan particularly in the petroleum sector and buys two thirds of Sudanese oil output. China National Petroleum Corp. owns 40 percent — the largest single share — of the Greater Nile Petroleum Operating Co., a consortium that dominates Sudan’s oil fields in partnership with the national energy company and firms from Malaysia and India.

I’m sure Nafie’s trip to China has nothing to do with strengthening the economic ties, but rather he is going there to seek weapons to continue the genocide with; but remember even if you brought with you Chinese reserve units your days are numbering in Sudan and very fast.

Every single word of this Ali or whoever has nothing to do with economy, the notorious NCP is under stress about the debt of Chinese rockets, as the result NCP decide to send this man to convince the Chinese government about the uncertain possibility of their promised rockets in the name of Southern oil. The first thing is lick my feet if you want Southern oil to pay with Chinese weapons. Big promises in the name of someone’s property leads to such terror. I hope your Mbeki will assist you with this trouble.

Nafie, is probably one of the worst leaders Sudan has ever seen and the most evil within the NCP inner circle.
James, you sound like un-educated child, six months to build an oil pipeline to Mombasa? 85% of African countries are landlocked? Wher do you get your info from?????
All religions have their bad side (not just Islam) which are usually the practitioners of the religion rather than the religion itself, try not to sound as foolish as those who were shouting Allah Akbar while attacking innocent civillians in the south.
Be better than your enemey…

To all southerners
We are watching Ali Nafie from his fingers to his toes. It is not time to play bullshit games now. Someone posted a message on factbook saying that Ali Nafie is in Khartoum to make CPA attractive and now he is on his way to China making CPA unattractive.
