True, but Rui forgot to mention that 45% of Angolas GDP comes from 
oil production and most of the rest from diamonds, gold and forest 
produce. As much as 85% of the population is involved in subsistance 
farming--poor guys.  And then a comparison is sought to be made with 
Indias growth rate, inspite of the fact that Indias poulation is 
close to a hundred times Angolas!  What a laugh.  And this guy blames 
others for misinformation.
But this is the goanet, so I will not post anything more about Africa.
