Wez 0 Report post Posted November 28, 2006 I work in a city on the outskirts of Johannesburg called Sandton. It is the most expensive property anywhere in Africa, And is probably better off than nearly any 1st world cities Ive seen in Europe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Capitalism at its finest. 2% of the population live in complete luxury while a considerable portion of the population living in shanty towns. This is not unique to South Africa as it happens in most modernised western countries where the poor are getting poorer and the rich are getting richer.
