There is a large Asian presence in Africa of at least 3 million people. Most arriving following European settlement in the late 19th and early 20th century but there is continued immigration to the continent to pursue economic opportunities.[1]

Chinese in Africa

The African continent is seeing a very rapidly growing number of Chinese immigrants coming to the continent for economic opportunities. Many of the first Chinese people on the continent were brought as contract labourers, similarly to the Indian community. Over 1 million Chinese workers currently live in Africa.[71] ~400,000 Chinese live in South Africa, 100,000 in Madagascar, 100,000 in Zambia,[72] 74,000 in Sudan,[73] 60,000 in Ethiopia, 50,000 in Angola, 50,000 in Kenya,[74] 50,000 in Nigeria, 50,000 in Uganda,[75] 40,000 in Algeria, 40,000 in Chad, 130,000 in Namibia, 35,000 in Mauritius,[76] 30,000 in Tanzania, 25,000 in the Republic of the Congo, 20,000 in Lesotho,[77] 12,000 in Mozambique and 10,000 in Egypt. 9,000 Chinese live in Zimbabwe, 6,000 in Botswana, 5,000 in Cameroon,[78] 5,000 in Equatorial Guinea,[79] 5,000 in Guinea,[80] 3,000 in Djibouti,[81] 3,000 in Malawi,[82] 3,000 in Mali,[83] 3,000 in Togo[84] 2,000 in Senegal[85] 1,000 in Niger[86] and 1,000 Chinese live in South Sudan.[87] Most of the estimated 50,000 Chinese people in the DRC live in Kinshasa or work for the mining companies of Haut-Katanga Province.

National Geographic also published an article by Frank Viviano; in July 2005, he visited Pate Island. During the time he stayed on Lamu, ceramic fragments had been found around Lamu which the administrative officer of the local Swahili history museum claimed were of Chinese origin, specifically from Zheng He's voyage to east Africa. The eyes of the Pate people resembled Chinese and Famao and Wei were some of the names among them which were speculated to be of Chinese origin. Their ancestors were said to be from indigenous women who intermarried with Chinese Ming sailors when they were shipwrecked. Two places on Pate were called "Old Shanga", and "New Shanga", which the Chinese sailors had named. A local guide who claimed descent from the Chinese showed Frank a graveyard made out of coral on the island, indicating that they were the graves of the Chinese sailors, which the author described as "virtually identical", to Chinese Ming dynasty tombs, complete with "half-moon domes" and "terraced entries".[88]

Indians in Africa

The Indian community in Africa is found throughout the continent with large communities existing in South Africa, Mauritius, Réunion, and other parts of the continent. The arrival of Indians on the continent often coincides with the expanding European presence on the continent. There continues to be a notable Indian presence with numbers currently estimating roughly 2,750,000 Indians on the continent. There have historically been and continue to be tensions between Indians and native African communities throughout the continent. The most notable example being the expulsion of Indians by Ugandan dictator Idi Amin. Other Indians came more recently to Africa as traders and professional workers especially in Mozambique with its huge group of Indians. The 70,000 Indians in Mozambique have had a long history with their origins in Mozambique. The African nations with the largest Indian communities are South Africa with 1,560,000, Mauritius with 894,000, Nigeria with 800,000,[89] Réunion with 280,250,[90] Kenya with 110,000, Mozambique with 70,000, Tanzania with 60,000, Uganda with 50,000, Madagascar with 25,000, Zambia with 13,000[91] and Ghana, Malawi, the Seychelles and Zimbabwe with 10,000. 8,000 Indians live in Botswana, 8,000 in São Tomé and Príncipe,[92] 3,000 in Rwanda,[93] 2,700 in South Sudan,[94] Burundi with 2,000[95] and Eritrea with 1,200.[96] 20,000 foreigners of which 4,372 are Indians work in the DR Congo for MONUSCO.[97] People from India, Bangladesh, Pakistan and Uruguay are the main workers for MONUSCO in the DR Congo.

Indians in South Africa

The first Indians in South Africa arrived on the Cape of Good Hope as slaves brought by the Dutch East Indies Company in 1654, however these slaves were fully assimilated into the Afrikaner and Coloured communities.[98][99] The most significant migrations of Indians came when the Natal become a British colony and large numbers were brought as indentured labourers. Often serving as labourers on sugar plantations, but also in coal mines. More than 150,000 Indians were brought to the Natal over the course of 5 decades. The long term result was that by 1904 the Indian presence in the Natal outnumbered the white presence.[100] The Indian community has faced legal discrimination.[101]

Indians in East Africa

In 1887 the British East Africa Association was formed in Bombay, and was later given a Royal Charter becoming the Imperial British East Africa Association. In 1895 the East Africa Protectorate took over the assets and personnel of the Imperial British East Africa Association, and began construction of the Uganda Railway. Recruitment for the railway was outsourced to A.M. Jeevanjee of Karachi, and large numbers of labourers sourced from the Punjab. Over the course of six years, 32,000 labourers were recruited.[102] Many settled in the region at the end of their contracts and brought family over from India. These early settlers were accompanied by increasing numbers of migrants from Gujarat, Punjab, and western India seeking out new opportunities in the region.

Large numbers of the Asian community left east Africa in the 1960s and 1970s due to racial tensions post-independence. In 1972, Idi Amin, dictator of Uganda, expelled all Asians and confiscated their property. At the time, Asians accounted for 90% of the country's businesses and tax revenues.[103] Since the 1980s, the Ugandan government has encouraged the return of those Asians who were expelled.

On 22 July 2017, the Asian community were officially recognised as the 44th tribe of Kenya, recognising the community's contribution to Kenya from the dawn of the nation.[104]

Lebanese in Africa

Over 500,000 people from Lebanon moved to Africa.[105] 0.1% of West Africans are of Lebanese descent. 300,000 Lebanese people live in the Ivory Coast (1.2% of total population), 150,000 live in Sierra Leone (2% of total population),[106] 75,000 live in Nigeria,[107] 40,000 live in Senegal[108] and 9,000 live in DR Congo. Thousands of Lebanese also moved to The Gambia and Ghana. 3,500 people from Europe and Lebanon live in The Gambia, representing 0.23% of its total population.[109] 3,000 Lebanese and 2,000 Europeans live in Liberia, representing 0.1% of its population.[110][111]

Syrians in Africa

300,000 refugees from Syria moved to Egypt according to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.[112] 250,000 refugees from Syria moved to Sudan in recent years.[113] They represent 0.6% of its total population. Most of the Syrians live in Khartoum, where they represent an estimated 4% of the total population.

Austronesians

The Merina people of Madagascar along with the Betsileo tribe are likely of Austronesian descent. Together, they represent about 35% of the population of the island of Madagascar. These two dominant ethnic groups are commonly accepted as indigenous to Madagascar, though they are likely descendants of Malay and Polynesian immigrations. For example, the Malagasy language is unrelated to nearby African languages, instead being the westernmost member of the Malayo-Polynesian branch of the Austronesian language family.
