Have they no gumption?
Most african countries are learning & they are developing themselves, In most if not all cases we are still trying to clean up & pick up the mess that european/ american countries left.

well talking for my country in particular (South Africa), we only gained uor freedom from the western countries in 1994 & that is +- 15 years & we are doing good for our selves, our ecenomy is fine & all other things are good. we are competitive.

I recorn if it wern't for the westerns invading our space, we would be doing good as an AFRICAN continent. we have a fertile land in minearls & other valueble resources.

slowly but surely will piick up entirely.........LOL watch the space!!!!!
