South Africans are uneasy about their government writing off the Castro regime's huge debt with them -- for nothing in return.
By Walter Muller in The Times of South Africa:
Something fishy about Cuban trip
South Africa reportedly wrote off more than R1-billion (Rand) in Cuban debt during President Jacob Zuma's visit there this week.
It was also reported that our exports to Cuba in 2008 amounted to R81-million.
One of the objectives of the presidential entourage was to foster business with that country.
Based on the above figures, does it pay to do business with a country that fails to pay its debts?
It seems to me that there is something fishy, particularly as the names of the business delegation members have been kept secret.
