i've noticed that africa is changing positively day by day, but i've notice there are still some traces of european influence, such as: languages from europe are still being spoken in africa, some cultural influences are still in africa countries and it seems like whites are still controlling the economic wealth of africa. most countries effected by europeans have overcome these problems and still have the native culture. but it seems as though africa still isn't like that. why is that?

all answers are welcomed.

Well i have only two answers for any future African leaders amongst us....learn the true roots and the ideologies of social change with a Pan African focus, and for economic development, take a closer LOOK at Malaysia......less than 30 years ago, that country was in a much worse state than many African countries at the moment......BUT due to economical change brought in by Dr Mahathir Mohamad's sheer self belief in solving his country his own way rather than the west's way, that country has become alsmost a beacon that even the west are jealous of!

Why do i think he can teach African leaders a thing or two?? Simply because the Malaysians' social and economical problems are and were the same as most of African countries, there is the tribalism, religion,etc.....if you don't believe me, the GhanianPM has become a frequent visitor to Malysia....and look how well Ghana is doing at the moment......nuff said!

It had to take more than self belief!
