The situation in Africa is dire and action needs to be taken NOW. In the UK we have Comic Relief which involves lots of british actors/entertainers doing fun things to help raise money for Africa. If donations are made I feel they should be forwarded to organisations such as this.
There are lots of African leaders like Mugabe and perhaps some of the african continents that have islamic/muslim governments that must be removed from power.
Commonwealth countries need to do something about Africa and ensure that learders with compassion and good intentions are put into a position of power.
The world must change. We can no longer condone the exploitation of Africa and African workers/businesses must be given a fair wage for their works and trade.
I am totally dissapointed with mankind for allowing the 1984 rwanda genocide to happen, and the people responsible for ethnic cleansing should be imprisoned for the rest of their lives.
I pay my taxes in Britain and I'd like some of it to be used to help make the entire world a better place.
N.B. some of your attitudes on this subject stink.

Sorry not wasting resources on Africa.
"I can't feed myself, but hey let's make love and have kids" Here's your sign.
"HIV rate is %50, nah I don't need to wear a condom" Here's your sign.
"Let's murder and rob white farmers, oops now we have food shortage" Here's your sign.
Japan, yes. Nice ppl. Smart. Self-reliant. I will help.
Africa. No way, not one penny not one tear, good riddance.

I had promised myself I wouldnt reply to ignorant racsist ill-informed nonsense.
FYI, there is a food shortage in Zimbabwe because trade sanctions have been imposed and no other country will trade with Zimbabwe much needed supplies. Last I heard is Zimbabwe dont even have the appropriate chemicals used to process clean water.
Cipher7, Not everyone agreed with the way mugabe did things, lots of people are against mugabe but are afraid to speak out because they could be murdered or imprisoned.
Have some compassion, you really shouldnt say "good riddance" when you dont even know the particulars of the situation.

So without trading they're unable to sustain the population?
They also don't have access to clean water?
Sounds like natures way of giving a subtle hint that people shouldn't live there.
This is exactly why I dont bother to chat here anymore. This guy appears to know nothing about how an economy works and is too ignorant to bother to go find out.
All countries in the world rely on each other for goods and services that will help sustain its population. Trade sanctions stop a country operating normally. Did you know that the UK relies on Europe for natural Gas? if Europe stopped supplying UK with gas should everyone in the UK move?

A case could me made for the old saying.
Do I even think charity or handouts will help in the long run? No. Point is, I think it's something Africa needs to sort out themselves. Otherwise they will just hold hands out for the US or UN food crates and rely on the blue helmets for protection when war breaks out.
I feel for Africa but Africa needs to be taught how to provide for itself. So, if you have a fancy degree in economics. Why not get a plane ticket to Liberia and teach a village how to provide a needed or wanted service? Or if you have knowledge of agriculture, help African Land owners make better use of lands and provide them with variety in their diets and a surplus to export?
Just some thoughts.
Hmmm, I felt you could have looked into it a bit deeper. Lets face it the Infrastructure doesnt exist to ensure african workers recieve a fair wage for their works and looking at the bigger picture we support this exploitation.
Lets take chocolate for example, its purchased from african chocolate producers for pennies yet in the UK its a billion pound industry. We have sucked Africa dry for everything its got and those current bastard leaders want to suck even more.
Remove these evil people from power, Africa needs leaders where health and education, housing are their priority.
