Tiwari pointed out that South Africans want to polish their diamonds in their own country rather then sending them to sweat shops in India.
It always amazes me how we politicians misinterpret events and possibilities. South Africans feel that they have problems due to lack of skills, high labor cost and the impact of apartheid. This they feel is not allowing them to take over the downstream processing of their mining resources. The reality is that the white man in South Africa wants to go biking, hiking and surfing every weekend and the rest want to drink, party and dance starting every Friday night. Only developed economies can have this culture. The rest have to work hard and work hard. Indian and Chineese do this.
