Every one of has a reason why he doesn’t want to go back or even invest in African. These reasons include laziness of the people, indiscipline, corruption and many more. We have to know that these problems are not going to go away tomorrow. There are so many of our bros and sis who are making it back and have more joy and peace in their lives than those of us abroad. At the end, we will one day get to know that we have not served ourselves, our children and the continent. I’m not saying every one should pack and go back, but everyone should at least ask himself or herself, what he or she can do to help back home. Thanks.

If african goods are easily exported to the US, there'll be deman for african experts in africa, and companies will have to compete for the best and so the educated could stay home and make a comfortable living. Right now, a lot of Asian students who come to the US to study are going back home. Why? becos they can get something that is better than they get here and spend thier lives with the family? And it's partly becos Chinese and Indian services are easily accessible in the US.

Consider the traditional fabrics. and the fact the majority of girls who are not able to go Univ tend to become seamstresses. They could a great source of export to western countries which will better thier standard of living back home, and we won't need to do western union every weekend

I agree with you that if US & europe will encourage african goods import, that will the surest way to take the continent our of poverty. Id everything we use here not 'made in china'? why cant we do the same to africa. from where I come from the AID money just go to the pockets of greedy and lustful politicians who are just chasing teenage univertiy girls
