Guide to South Africa
|

|
|
 |
 Welcome to the southern tip of Africa. Here two great oceans meet. Warm weather lasts most of the year, and game roam just beyond the city lights.
This is Where Humanity Began. Mankind’s ancestors traces are still evident in fossilised footprints and in the world’s oldest rock paintings.
Today this Country is the powerhouse of Africa, the most advanced broad-based economy on the continent, with infrastructure to match any first-world nation.
You can drive on wide, tarred highways all 1 600 kilometres from Messina at the very top of the country to Cape Town at the bottom. Join approximately eight million passengers who disembark at our airports every year.
Two-thirds of Africa’s electricity is generated here. Forty percent of the phones are here. Twenty percent of the world’s gold is mined here.
Almost everyone who visits is astonished at the value for money in particular wines and food.

Malaria in SOUTH AFRICA [Safe in ALL areas if advice is taken]
|
|
|
 |
While great strides have been taken to reduce the problem of MALARIA, precautions using BASIC COMMON SENSE should be followed namely:- Personal protection measures against mosquito bites include the use of an appropriate insect repellent containing di-ethyl toluamide (also known as DEET or similar), the wearing of clothing to conceal as much of the body as practical, sleeping under mosquito nets, and the spraying of sleeping quarters at night with a suitable insecticide, or the burning of an insecticide laden coil. If at all possible avoid being outdoors at night, when malaria-carrying mosquitoes are more likely to bite.
Get medical advise on the use of appropriate anti-malarial medication. Both personal protection methods and anti-malarial medication are important, and neither should be neglected at the expense of the other.
