How safe is it in South Africa. Why would you or would you not live in SA?

Alsu Ekinadose Odemwingie the problem i have faced in SA is brutal in many aspects, people here are very money focused and that is the blacks and colreds, and the indians, they still dont understand what the whites did to put the infrastructure together. the whites have togetherness as well as they put control to geting their moneys worth back, and they deliver. its the same problem all over the world really. the white man has spent time and blood developing and refining his skill. while the rest are just being opportunistic. as blacks we have the resources Natural raw talent but we dont put it to good use.

Alsu Ekinadose Odemwingie best be in joberg as pretoria is very far almost another state. i didnt find it nice there althoe its a place for those who seek to be close to the government. you want to find people and association i would say job erg. i havnt met violence, but theft is high as sorry to say the generation hasnt left the survival mentality of apartheid. but you must have atleast one person to be with when going to any new place. hala i have staff that can help you set up if you need and brilliant estate agency handling accommodation. dont know how you are financialy but best if you come scout and see befor you pull your roots out completely.

Abbi Junaid Alsu. Business wise, over here we own and run a Computer Service Center. We have had it for about six years. Hubby is an IT Specialist. Would like to duplicate the same over there. What are your thoughts, JBorg or Pretoria ?

Alsu Ekinadose Odemwingie depends on what your target market is, but remember being new means you have to still do the leg work to be known. locations dosnt often matter its the fact that no one knows of you that dosnt bring business. for instance if i want to set up a restaurant i would create the menu based on the palet of the people in that environment, how i look is secondary, people talk about food when it comes to restaurants and then add the coating of the place as a spice. those who want you will come from where ever they are if they hear about you.

Alsu Ekinadose Odemwingie the thing is this about business, no one will give you info about what is possible, because your strength is in the strategy you employ, has nothing to do with location. every environment needs everything but the choice remains with you.
