Okay when i was in SA, i heard abt it alot... In fact i had plan of opening restourant.. My friend who opened a restourant told me that.. He has a black patner....As things get easy for you once you have black patner.

I guess for South African's it is easy to own Business without having a black patner.. but i guess having a black partner helps...

As my other friends dad has Garment business in Grahmstown, he dont have any black partner( but they are local..so they can have business with Balck partner )... So she was telling few things take time... I dont have details abt those things.. But yah all those thing are related to Goverment permits and all.....

things are definately difficult for Outsiders....

Cheers
Anu
