China's investments in Africa seem to be following the Cold war model. While they support the Genocidal regime in Sudan, they send weapons to the brutal regime in Zimbabwe.
As long as they get oil and other raw resources they probably could care less about the people who are suffering and dying due to their influence. Considering the plight of the Tibetans, I can see why China could care less about the Darfuris and others.
