A Roundtable Discussion on Poverty, HIV/AIDS and Inequality
Pretoria
23 January 2006
Shaking off decades of apartheid-era isolation, South African executives, both black and white, are moving north to buy struggling banks, rebuild rundown railways, and bring first-world technology … to an impoverished continent … this explosion of trade and investment … is one of the most vivid illustrations of South Africa’s metamorphosis since apartheid ended in 1994. Once a pariah state, South Africa now seems poised to dominate the continent that once shunned its products and leaders. New York Times 17.02.02
With returns routinely over 30% – in some cases 50%–60% – compared to the 16–20% of South Africa, Africa’s allure can be irresistible.Financial Mail 07.02.03
Like wildfire tearing through dry forest, South Africa is rapidly entrenching itself in every facet of the Nigerian economy: from construction, energy, aviation, entertainment to revenue collection, South African companies loom large and are still growing.Aminu Mohammed, Weekly Trust 13.09.03
The third scramble for Africa continues apaceDuncan Clarke, chair of Global Pacific and Partners.
