Djibouti , the next Singapore of Africa

[SahanGalbeed]

Djibouti is aiming for investments worth $12.4 billion between 2015 and 2020, with its sights set on expanding its port facilities and building new airports to handle more cargo and tourists. China is providing the bulk of the financing with nonconcessional or "hard" loans, and the investment has helped push Djibouti’s economic growth to 6 percent or more a year. But the International Monetary Fund has warned that high nonconcessional borrowing, which provides financial assistance on a market-based interest rate, is also driving Djibouti’s public and publicly guaranteed debt to a peak of 80 percent of gross domestic product in 2017, up from 60.5 percent in 2014.

My plane made a transit stop in djoubity, god that place is hot. I mean, I was expecting it to be hot, but that hot! I swear to god within 5 minutes my arm near the window became 10 shades darker.

Try sleeping in that heat after the air con breaks down that was the longest night of my life haven't been back since Djibouti is no jokes

The West is blessed I think more than these sahara African nations. Too much heat is worst than too much cold. I think a blessed place is that --that has many seasons--like spring, summer, fall and winter. African has only one season. Super hot. ufff

Hopefully, DJibouti will become the Singapore in Africa, but I gotta say it is high time that DJibouti upgrade that one-bathroom airport. The last time I was there in 2011, I couldn't use their bathroom and had to wait until we could get to Dubai. However, there are many people who couldn't wait and I feel sorry for those people. I mean one-bathroom airport, c'mon!

Those places where it snows is only limited to the high mountains each of those countries have. The rest of the country doesn't experience those colder climates. Too much heat kills productivity, It's no surprising why people back home seem to be so lazy.

Totally, my experience as well...

I am sorry to burst your bubbles, but that is never going to happen.
Singapore has good demographics, populated by naturally gifted high IQ Chinese people.

Djibouti is populated by tribal animal Afars and Zoomalis. You will never reach the level of Singapore.

, Michael Ital , you still visit this place . God be with you man .

These snow are African places with snow are part of the same southern tropical latitude like the other countries in Africa are. The only reason why they're so cold is down to the place's elevation.

Djibouti isn't going to become 1st world by just expanding some of it's infrastructure. The improvements will be marginal at best.
