One is that South Africa is the biggest economy in Africa. The market is big. Secondly, SA has got good infrastructure, in African terms at least. It has good airports, good seaports, good highways, and convenient transportation, communication. Thirdly, SA is ruled by law. It has quite well developed legal system to protect business interests. Fourthly, SA is politically stable. It's a democratic society. Fifthly, although SA needs to improve its safety situation, it's not a target of international terrorism, it's not a spot of armed bloody conflicts, and doesn't have big religious problems like in some other countries, so generally speaking it is a peaceful, tranquil, politically stable society. Another reason is that SA is a rich in mineral resources and also human resources. In a word, South Africa is a good place to invest.
