	Resource Investor - Commentary - Africa's Star Rises Anew in the East
		From a 20th-century perspective, therefore, one might have been able to conclude that Africa was forever cursed to be on the commoditised periphery of the global economy and that Afropessimists’ worst fears were justified.

		Africa now has a once-in-a-century opportunity to hitch its resource-rich wagon to that rising eastern star.
