Jordy Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 Wow that is an interesting Table. It is rather frightening when countries like Uzbekistan, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Colombia all rank better than South Africa on every level.

Bob Posted October 31, 2012 Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 (edited) The Economist magazine from London, which is internationally respected, had an article on South Africa in last week's edition.In 2000, South Africa produced 40% of all of Africa's output.Nigeria only produced about 14% of Africa's total output.South Africa in 2012 is now producing much less of Africa's total output, with Nigeria looking set that in 10 years, despite all the corruption and bombing of churches and killing of Christians on a regular basis by Islamists in the north, Nigeria will surpass South Africa's output.So . . . . . if you want a better lifestyle for the future, Nigeria will hold more promise.Why is that?The Economist stated that local and national corruption, feather of politician's nests and lack of leadership have been the main factor in South Africa's demise, despite the country having vast resources that the world wants and a cheap labour pool.Go figure. . . . . . oh . . . . . and thank your mates in the ANC while you do so!http://www.economist.com/news/leaders/21564846-south-africa-sliding-downhill-while-much-rest-continent-clawing-its-way-up Edited October 31, 2012 by Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
