Africa 非洲 fēi zhōu. ugly continent in Chinese

If China considers Africa as its partner and friend then l don’t think it will call it a name that will spoil that great relationship it intends to create

I agree

i strongly support this petition

I am with the petition.

En tant qu'Africain je suis déçu de ce nom!!! Prière d'informer le gouvernement chinois de nous changer ce nom là

That’s name in Chinese has a lot of bad and disrespectful meaning

Change

We need a change or we make things difficult for Chinese living in Africa

It’s so pathetic how these people see Africa and I don’t blame them though but the so called African leaders are so greedy and corrupt that we can sell our dignity and respect to them no matter what they treat us, God bless Africa, God bless the continent and its rich resources

I support the change! It’s not a coincidence that US is meiguo which is translated as beautiful country.

Excellente initiative but it’s too late for the coming FOCAC

Change the name of African name in Chinese... I support the change..

I vote for changement in Africa

I support the move

Beautiful Africa

its a look down on d continent “Africa” to b addressed as poor and ugly continent while all d natural resources dat sustains d whole wide world comes from Africa. then, why not name and address her as richest continent than d poorest continent.

Glad to sign up

Shame on China for being so racist! China was attacked for more than a hundred years by the same countries that it idolizes today, USA, France, UK, etc. And yet China still grovels for the respect of these countries that ridicule Chinese people and mock Chinese culture. If China is racist towards Africa then China well deserves all of the ill-treatment, the disrespect, and the disdain of the Europeans who called them yellow apes, slant eyed devils, etc

I want Africa to be recognized as a great place where great people lives . We cannot dénie Africa while everything’s the world use comes from there . Like this we will make this flux stops

Long overdue! Shame on China for being so racist! China was attacked for more than a hundred years by the same countries that it idolizes today, USA, France, UK, etc. And yet China still grovels for the respect of these countries that ridicule Chinese people and mock Chinese culture.
