teevee, Perhaps you could share the links to those "torrent" of articles with us. I have read a few negative articles talking of the problems of Southern Africa, referring more to Angola and the former Zaire, Congo, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, Somalia, Zambia and Zimbabwe. But I have also read articles holding up South Africa has a template for the rest of Africa to strive for. I have read many articles on the internal difficulties in South Africa, but the average person there wants law, order, justice and a good job and house. When someone kills someone in South Africa, many times the surrounding neighborhood of normally law abiding people are incensed and form a posse to find the murderer. The police have to quell these disturbances and bring the criminal to justice. There are lots of criminals and mafia types here, just like in many other countries and cities with high unemployment. Yet the country has modern conveniences, malls, high rises, cities and the like and that infrastructure is slowly being improved and developed to try and accommodate all its peoples. Some factions want to go backwards, but that exists in the most modern of cultures, like the U.S., where bombs, murders, theft, mafia etc., are prevalent as well. It's unfortunate western world, white Christian minds can't get past the fact that they are gods chosen people, and hence can do no wrong,...and all other cultures and races are heathens, and doomed to fail. Political and social unrest risks are prevalent throughout the world in all countries. That doesn't mean business can't flourish. SUF shareprice has crumbled because analyst's can't see revenues past M1, and are too lazy to do simple calculations to figure out the obvious #reply-10945762. Care to comment on those calculations teevee? Many people are jumping because they think the end is near and if you listen to analysts, that seems to be the case. Well, russett is on the line saying this is a temporary state of affairs. Short of South Africa falling into the ocean, or civil war breaking out (which is unlikely in this country in the next few years) SUF will prove to all, shortly, that revenues and profitability will increase over time. So share those torrent of links showing the country of South Africa is going to hell in a hamster basket, so we can decide for ourselves. Funny how the British continue to invest in the country, along with Canadians, Americans and Australians and other stupid people I guess, eh teevee. russett, the squished hamster.
