If economic progress is not translated into better quality of life and respect for citizens' rights, we will witness more Tahrir Squares in Africa.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
What we need in Africa is balanced development. Economic success cannot be a replacement for human rights or participation or democracy... it doesn't work.
It is important to nurture any new ideas and initiatives which can make a difference for Africa.
If we continue doing the right things in Africa, we can create a very exciting and competitive global market here.
Africa will thrive.
Africa is progressing but maybe not in the way you think it is. Even if the overall picture looks good, we must all remain vigilant and not get complacent.
Africa is on the rise.
I am one of the affluent rich living the good life. But I like to think that I am doing my bit to resolve the problems of Africa and am certainly committed to Africa in the long run.
All across this world, especially within the African diaspora, we feel like there is a constant devaluing of our culture and our livelihood.
I'm extremely optimistic about rapid transformation and change of things in Africa in general.
Africa is the future.
