SURVIVING AFRICA,THE DDARK CONTINENCONTINENT TRAVELTRAVEL SECURISECURITY BY LICIEN CHETTY

The African continent boasts the largest number of astounding countries for sightseeing on this planet, with impressive animals, stunning deserts and beautiful savannahs. It is also home to 54 sovereign states with astonishing cities and towns that are rich in history and culture. In contrast to the radiant beauty the continent offers, nearly all of the African countries are considered among the poorest, most underdeveloped and most dangerous countries in the world. This book deals with the dangers inherent in these countries (from road accidents to violent street crime and from airport security to hostage ordeals). It provides advice on the underdeveloped medical and security infrastructure and helps the traveller who is unfamiliar with African countries. It teaches you how to be proactive by identifying and dealing with potential threats before they escalate by applying some basic security awareness skills. With over 25 years of combined law enforcement and private security experience, Lucien Chetty has travelled extensively over the years to high-risk destinations in Africa and has trained thousands of people from around the globe, from both corporate companies and tourists, on how to safely navigate the complexities of these high-risk countries. With an emphasis on prevention, Surviving Africa covers medical, cultural, and political considerations, so you understand exactly what you must do before and while you are in Africa. Before your next trip, benefit from these time-tested strategies and the authors hands-on experience for proactively managing travel risks while in Africa.
