It’s not only rich South Africans who are leaving the country – young educated ones are too

A new report suggests that young educated South Africans plan to leave the country to work abroad, rather than plough their knowledge back into the local economy.

The report comes from PPS, an insurance, investment, healthcare and financial planning specialist for graduate professionals.

The company’s latest Student Confidence Index (SCI), conducted among over 1,500 South African students, revealed that 54% of the respondents plan to move abroad for work purposes in the next five years following their graduation.

It follows a report published by New World Wealth, which showed that white millionaire numbers have decreased dramatically in SA – from 36,600 in 2007, to 21,200 in 2015.

Year-on-year, there were 10,900 fewer white millionaires in the country – a drop of 34%, the report said.

Japan stayed true to its traditions and culture. I don’t think they qualify as a country that let western civilization define them. Instead, they integrated western technology to meet their traditions. Same with South Korea.

South Africa ... blending redistributionism, socialism and race identity and thinking THIS time it’ll work.

USA .. blending redistributionism, socialism and race identity and thinking it’ll work.

If they’re white they should come here. They have experienced life as second class citizens and are race realists.

Even Liberia is a Hell hole and it was founded by free blacks.

Name even one country which maintained its civilization after the western civilization leadership and facilitators leave.

I believe that many non-Western nations have maintained their civilizations after post-Colonial rule. The question is, "what is life like for the citizens of those nations as compared to when they were controlled by Western powers?" China, Japan, Singapore, Indonesia and India come to mind as doing ok economically for their people and I believe they are better off than when Western powers controlled them. This is not to say I endorse Chinese communism but only to say that the Chinese people are better off "economically" as to when China was controlled by Western powers.

There are a lot of white SA immigrants working in various agricultural jobs around here, and not just hired hands.

Japan was civilized before Whitey and his gunboats showed up.

What I should've said is name a country that had no established civilization before it was taken over that maintained their civilization when again left on their own.

We have some friends from Sweden who took an ex-pat gig there for two years. He was offered more time but declined. He echoed what you said. He said, "you don't leave your compound without armed security".

All that aside, he said beautiful place, excellent weather-they were put up in a nice house, pool, servants, etc (and I am sure plenty of money). Even all that couldn't hold them there.

So, they went back to Sweden--which is importing the same problems as fast as it can.

What has happened to SOUTH AFRICA!
I am reminded of a scene in The Life and Death of Colonel Blimp in which the British Colonel is interrogating a German POW very “genteely”.
The Col is removed, and they bring in a facial scared SOUTH AFRICAN officer who does not do things gently.

In 100 years, the predominant race in SA will be Chinese.

I posted a question some time ago asking why white people stayed in So Africa when the government was taking their property. It drew a sharp response from an ethnic Dutch resident who said they couldn’t leave because they weren’t citizens of any other country. They were stuck there.

My question here is where are the people referred to in the article going?

That sounds about right. An Afrikanerin told me fully half her high school graduating class had already left.

For what it’s worth, visitors to apartheid era South Africa fom Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan (but not PRC) were legally considered white while there.

Demographics; if you won’t populate a place someone else will. Very similar to what is happening in the metro NYC area now...

Actually, NYC (especially Manhattan and Brookyln) are getting more wealthy and educated, and are home to the largest concentration of wealth in the U.S. The white proles are being replaced by immigrants in the schelpvilles in Jersey and Queens, but that is a different story story,
