hey Jazx. o.k. Im not from Africa but if you read a lot of history, current affairs. politics etc than you can form a well informed opinion on subjects. Im sure there are many non-irish people who understand more of my country's development and politics than I do.
anyhow, I would have said that it is, among other things the compound effects of colonisation, political corruption that have held Africa (the cradle of civilisation) from 'developing' as much as it should. If Africa had been given a fair deal in terms of international economics would its infrastructure et al not be far better than it is.
I find it a bit hard to applaud those who have held the country down for so long.
