    Interesting concept to try and change how people, especially black people drink. People drink to get drunk instead of drinking to enjoy the quality of the beverage. This concept could work all over Africa. Alcohol consumption in South Africa is unsurprisingly high. They're also the happiest. Another banger production Steve.

      South Africa is actually number 8 if i am correct in Africa with alcohol consumption and keep in mind, we have the largest brewery in the world by volume and 50% of alcohol in China is from SA. We should be the leading nation in Africa considering how cheap alcohol is here and the access to it but we not

Most South Africans don't drink a lot, is just that SA is the most spoke about nation in Africa. On average, South Africans don't consume too much alcohol as well. The culture of drinking to get drunk is already something that is no longer big in SA, maybe during apartheid.

    This is an interesting concept that aims to change the way people, especially black people, consume alcohol. Rather than drinking to get drunk, the focus is on appreciating the quality of the beverage. This approach could be effective across Africa, where alcohol consumption rates are generally high. It is worth noting that South Africa, which has a high rate of alcohol consumption, is also known for having some of the happiest people. Well done on another great production, Steve.

Although there is corruption in politics which is a global phenomenon, most of this politicians are not as rich as you guys make them and there is no data to even suggest such. Most rich individuals are people with all kind of high-quality skills in their respective fields of expertise with professional practice licences and often, managed to open their own practice and use their skills which in most cases are on demand. Most Politicians are not as smart as people think, never mind making much wealth. The only politicians that are out there and rich are very few and at the top position. Again, people just say things based on popular opinions, not necessarily following the right channels to come to a conclusion. In SA just like many countries with working systems, there is a well documented research that will show you which fields produce our wealthy individuals and I don't remember seeing politicians there.
