Translation from the Guardian-ese: Why hasn’t their wealth been redistributed yet?
Mandela understood the potential damage that could be caused by “white flight” from South Africa (one need only look at neighboring Zimbabwe), and sought to assure whites they would be protected in the new South Africa (which for the most part was true). Many whites left anyway, and when they leave the population is left without doctors, teachers, etc.. The “mentoring” system, by which whites were to train blacks to move up in the economy, seems to have degenerated into a spoils system for the politically connected.
