That's the key issue, stability and continuity over the long term - Australia get an A in that respect.

We are now seeing some uncertainty creeping into African nations such as Namibia which is/was once viewed as being very safe for overseas investment however there is talk of increasing resource taxes. I'm led to believe that similar plans have been discussed in Ghana and even Burkina Faso?

This is on top of the already present risks in this region.
