While I admit I had never heard of this country until today, an informative thread that is now unfortunately locked brought it to my attention. I feel that this is a great learning opportunity.

This country is another example of the old ways of imperialism, with brute force and visible contol. (I would argue that small, poor countries are still under imperialism, but now through corporations and the World Bank.)

Does anybody have any more information or insights on the fascinating subject of Malawian independence?

you're braver than me.

What are you talking about? Does this have anything to do with my question?

One thing is knowing that living conditions are shit there, quite another to read how many people die each year, how many orphans there are, how many people have AIDS etc.

Statistics are a wonder

The whole continent is dying. Thats the truth.

The situation is far from good, but it could be a lot worse.

I sure did learn a lot from this. Thank you ditocoaf

An old girlfriend of mine is from Malawi and she is seriously hot ( and drinks beer ) time to give her a call,thanks for the reminder

we treated them, and the rest of africa (except white-ruled rhodesia (OOPS!)) like shit.
The west sure does use a lot of double standards. What massive hypocrites we can be.
