africa or south africa?

As an ex-pat, I look at the Africa threads often. Now I know that SA is the major source of pilots etc within Africa, but one can't help notice that almost 100% of the stories are about things happening in SA, or from SA pilots flying within Africa on contract and so on.
Do all the Egypian, Kenyan, and of course the 1000's of Russians flying in deepest darkest not have a comment. Granted I've read threads from Kenyan pilots, the odd Gambian,,err, that's it I think. Don't the rest have comments to make about aviation where they are? If a 707 crashes in Kinshasa, or an An12 goes down, or if 176 paxx fall out an Il76, it's a South African that tells the strory.
