What if we were all white or all black or all Chinese?
The world is in a bad shape. Why do we exist? Why apartheid, why war? But war is stupid? Some go far as saying the west just likes bombing Arabs, Asian and black people!

Your quotation process can cost you potential clients

This is a continuation of the previous article titled “Colonialism/Apartheid – a high interest, long term and lucrative investment for the west”.

Colonialism/Apartheid – a high interest, long term and lucrative investment for the west (part 1 of 2)
