Chinese migrants in Algiers clash
Construction workers in Algeria
Many migrant workers compete with Algerians for work in the building trade

About 100 local residents and Chinese migrant workers have clashed in the Algerian capital, some brandishing knives and rods, reports say.

Ten Chinese migrants were injured and two Chinese shops looted, Reuters reported, citing a Chinese diplomat.

Violence flared after a confrontation between a shop owner and a migrant in the city's Bab Ezzouar district.

High unemployment among young Algerians has fuelled tensions over migrant workers who accept lower pay.

A shopkeeper told Reuters that the fight broke out after a disagreement with a Chinese migrant worker.

"I told him not to park his car in front of my shop, but he insulted me," 31-year-old Abdelkrim Salouda said.

"I punched him, I thought it was over, but after 30 minutes he came back with at least 50 Chinese to take revenge. It is a miracle I am still alive."

Firms in Africa's third largest economy say that they depend on Chinese labour - often better qualified and willing to accept lower wages than Algerian workers - to staff the construction sector.

Official estimates put the number of Chinese migrant workers living in Algeria at 35,000.

Some 8,000 work in the building sector in Algeria, according to Agence France Presse, and in the Bab Ezzouar district alone Chinese firms have built dozens of structures.

A diplomat at the Chinese embassy said he hoped Algerian authorities would look into the fighting but added that it would not affect relations between the two countries.

"Our friendship with Algeria is strong and this event is nothing in comparison with the links between our two countries," Ling Jun said.

sigh at least its not a phenomenon for vancouver only i guess

Real men fight 1 on 1.

[hk20000]

werds...if you can't win, then don't fight, and don't bring back up.

[Vansterdam]

u never watched young and dangerous before? do that shit 50 on 50

[hk20000]

^ They just brought 50 expecting that you bring 50 too.... whose fault is it that you don't have ur backups lined up?

[raygunpk]

1 on 1 fuck that it's 3 on 1 no duels got rice bitch?

[Death2Theft]

Yeah dude bruce lee does it 50 at a time all the time.

[124Y]

Honestly, if I want to beat up someone, I don't give a shit about one-on-one. As long as I reach my goal, I'll do whatever it takes. It's the streets...not an honourable boxing match.

[StylinRed]

1 on 1 came from the streets if you wanna fight with a group you both bring a group

thats always been the street code since back in the day

edit: i didnt actually read the article but i just noticed the chinese in algeria are acting like mexicans in america

[pandalove]

men with power dun need to fight one on one..
they get someone else to do it

[R8]

1 vs 100, ip man their ass.

[asian_XL]

Only real man fights 1 one 1? geez, you are reading too many novels or dragon balls...
it's not like those people are MMA fighters, they are not paid to fight 1 on 1.

50 on 1 is a bit exaggerating, maybe 50 on 30 is more like it.

I have seen 20+ high school kids kicking 2 other kids ass...only about 5,6 kids did the
beating, the rest of them just watch.

[Qmx323]

Technically 50 on 50 factors down to 1 on 1... technically.

[wouwou]

fuck 1 on 1 for a beat down

It's not a movie, you can be the honorable man, but you are dead

[JHuJHu]

You're getting mixed up with viets

haha jokes!

werds...if you can't win, then don't fight, and don't bring back up.

YOU ARE A FUCKING LOSER !! HAHA

so your saying if nasty nate told you to take off your pants, you wouldn't fight back and just take it in the butt because he's bigger than you?

most people who complain about unfair fights are usually
A) Losers with no friends to help them.
B) A big guy trying to start shit with a smaller guy but gets beat by 1203401240120 guys instead.

honestly you can't expect people to fight fair in this day and age lol
because nothing is ever fair 1on1, either one guy is on roids or one guy has some sort of training of some sort
but 50 vs 50 is fair because you have all sorts of mix and matches!

so kids either make lots of friends, or join a gang!

Fight to win or don't fight at all.
Guarantee that win by fighting dirty and cheap. Whatever gets the job done.
Dominate swiftly with the lowest casualties to prove how much better you are.
Winners write the history books not the righteous idiots that lost.

When you call a knife fight bring a gun instead. HAHA

[achiam]

People with no brains use their fists.
This one guy who picked on me constantly during high school always tried to fight me.
Eventually I sucked up to him and became friends with his friend and I'd go to their place a lot (to hang out with his friend).
For 2 years I'd go to the washroom and brush my asshole with his toothbrush.

it's one thing to call someone fighting with their fists brainless, but it's a completely different thing on what you did.

[StylinRed]

Since when are there rules in a street fight? when i read this i immediately thought


since your dad was a kid and his dad was a kid and his dad and his dad back to dueling with guns and even further back to dueling with swords and further back to the time of cavemen

[wouwou]

I know!

I believe the rule is whoever is still breathing after the fight, wins?

[StylinRed]

^^^^ i think thats the only rule that people don't ignore today wouwou

unfortunately, that's the way it is.

the ones that stand by their rules are often the ones that's buried

[Psykopathik]

since when was fighting ever considered fair?

how many wars have occured where the larger army said " since you only have 10,000 men, we'll keep 1/2 our troops behind and not use our tanks and missles. you can still use your horses and swords if you like..."

thats right, none.

if you punch me in the face you better hope i don't know wher you live or work...

[NSX]

^ Agreed. If you want to fight 1 on 1, then go to organized competition.

When youre fighting outside, its survival...anything goes....weapons, manpower, etc. If you want to get hurt, then walk away, run, or de-escalate the situation, or dont start shit, and dont hang out at places where theres alcohol and jealous boyfriends.

How can you get into a fight and say: dont jump in, or, no kicking in the nuts, or eye gouging? If you want rules, go to the UFC. All that "REAL MEN" bullshit is just about pride...it doesnt work when ppl are angry. If you have that much pride, then walk away and be a REAL man.

:werd:

if someone jumped me on the street i'll be eye gouging and kicking in the nuts, joints, throat, etc. if there were guys i knew w/ me better believe i'd want their help.

honour/pride won't get me home to my family in one piece.
