Africa & Middle East - November 2006

I would like to know what the rest of you think about the following situation as I'm struggling to make up my mind.

I'm currently working at one of the top financial companies in SA for R12 600 a month although I'm not in the exact field that I studied for. (I have an actuarial science degree).

A member of staff that I know has said that he could get me an interview at another company (also a good company although not as good as the one I'm at now) and with his recommendation, will be likely to get a job there in the actuarial division. He says that my current market value, given my degree and other qualifications is around R15 500 per month.

I only started at my current company in May. My boss had to pull some strings to get me a permanent employee post given that I'm a white male and therefore did not fall under BEE, so I feel that I need to repay him for what he did for me - Since leaving after 6 months would be a slap in the face.

i have a confession to make
A few months ago i beat the crap out of a sudanese guy, yes i did, u know why?
i was parking my car near ramsis street and as usual i leave my window opened, cause i thought i always feel safe in my country, then a sudanese young man came beside my window and punched me in the face, i did nothing to him, it took me a second to realise what happened then he tried to runaway but i ran after him and kept beating him like a maniac (ofcourse he didnt touch me when i beat him cause he was completely doped and also cause he found a huge number of amazing egyptian men who rescue me.
the police came and we took him to the police station where they found out he was doped and that he didnt know why he did that, they also knew later that he did that to be departed to a "better" country in europe or canada.
now can u give me opinion about that (including the guy who said we treat the sudanese badly) i want ur opinion too.

I am hoping that everyone understood my question. The $12,000 was not a fee but was stated to be a traveling money requirement by the US embassy. Does this further explanation change anyone's opinion?

Hi,
Which technology GSM or CDMA is used in Ethiopia? Whether a normal GSM handset which I use in India, can be used in Ethiopia as well?
Whether the mobile service providers are govt-owned or private?
