Madagascar - S1.E3

Chinese companies enjoy doing business in the exotic, remote Madagascar. There is a lot to be gained, because the country is rich in natural resources. And because the population is poor, labor is cheap. Ruben Terlou goes diving with local fishermen and talks with the crew of a Chinese fishing fleet that has just been chained down by Madagascar's new president. Inland, Ruben sees entire families working on Chinese cotton plantations under a scorching sun. And he meets a Chinese cotton boss, whose investment went horribly wrong.
