Nah, we'll leave that to their legal owners, China. We just bail out dictatorships so kings can live in absolute luxury while their countries are dirt poor. Zimbabwe is probably next.
 
@ocleroux, I like your economic and internal policies. I would not mind you being president.

I think I would make a brilliant president. I do think I would be considered a hard line one though also. In many cases I dont think I would be considered PC...but hey...I think what this country and many of our neighbours need is some good old fasioned tough love. :-)

A British protectorate that can no longer justify it's own existence. We need to take it back and incorporate it under the republic of South Africa. Make it SA's 10th province or merge it with Mpumalanga. More than half of Swaziland's population is already living inside South Africa anyway.

When their president discover's Victoria's Secret.. he's going to kit out all his three hundred wives in the latest lingerie fashions... at South African Taxpayers expense.

Unless Victoria has a range of plus size's I don't see that happening.
Imagine when the rest of Africa gets wind of this loan,they'll all be crawling at out doorstep waiting for a handout.

Lesotho as well.

Swaziland will not be able to repay the loan, and it will be written off. Then they'll apply for another loan and the whole spiel will start all over again.

Gordhan said the first of three tranches of the loan would be transferred in August when negotiations had been finalised and that repayments would be via debits from Swaziland's share of regional customs receipts.

fin24: SA ties terms to Swazi bailout

I doubt they can really afford to pay this back and be able to run their country at the same time.

Who said anything about paying it back or running their country? It's a slush fund for mswati's personal use :mad:

A better option would have been to spend a few million and hire a few dozen mercenaries to go and sort out that oversexed pig and give him the Mussolini cure.

His personal wealth (swelled by OUR R2.5 billion) could then be used to feed his starving serfs.
