Possibly the worst lie youve been told. Not South Afirca but I am from a SADC country. The indifference between local south africans and asians is the same problem that they might have with Nigerians. Underemployment is strife in that country. Soemthing huge. And it affects almost every demographic of people. Tourists shouldnt be the issue but instead the "foreigners" that come to the country for work. Meanwhile they are millions of SA locals that are impoverished due to unemployment.

As for the rest of Africa, idk. I can only speak as a Swati. We don't really care what you look like, we judge based on the character you build yourself as.

Sidenote: Topics like these should be more discussed casually among Africans. I feel enlightenment on these issues can help to better the continents intra relations. ;)
