Skilled workers are rushing out of South Africa

There has been a dramatic increase in the number of people leaving South Africa over the past few years, as illustrated by the website Where Did We Go.

The website’s developer said he is building this project “as a personal interest piece to visualise where, when, and how many South Africans have left the country”.
 
Cant wait to see my little stream appear on the website, nice to see a visual representation of the situation.
 
The total for that site is only 2750 expats so not really indicative
 
Are all people who leave looking to emigrate or are they people going after better job opportunities.
 
And most of them are blacks as per the mybb grapevine so why is this even important really?
It is very important since we are losing critical skills and chances of economic recovery is very slim when you do not have skilled people of any color to run economy successfully.
 
Oh god one of these articles again. PornHub is going to suffer today.

There are a lot of professions listed there that are not exactly critical, I mean come on Marketing Manager, Accounts Manager
