Our firm is no longer taking on capital projects in South Africa, focusing on West and East Africa. Also Angola. We have 90% Zimbabwean contingent as qualified South Africans are very hard to get. Zimbabweans need to feed family north of the border. We are also reviewing moving our Sandton Office to our Botswana office. Tax is lower, the money is real, and a couple of our big clients from West Africa have been recently robbed at gun Point and would rather fly (own aircraft) into Gaborone than risk a repeat hijacking. This is several billion $ totally avoiding South Africa.
They just don't get it, hijack investors and they never return. They have just caught the syndicate operating from the airport in collusion with people working there. We are averaging a violent incident/week amongst our staff.
As far as my family, getting my mother out of Zimbabwe and into Oz is a priority then we head to UK/Oz.
