Can we learn from the Chinese? Most of their most celebrated companies 'learned & borrowed' from the West when they won big infrastructure and other contracts in China. This was a deliberate policy move orchestrated by the Chinese Government.

When are we going to stop this vicious cycle of being consumer countries? 

When are we going to regain the glory days of the great African empires the likes of the Ancient Egyptian Empire and the Kingdom of Mali? 

Innovation and invention, contrary to popular belief isn't and wasn't the preserve of the West and the East.
