by cokes - last update: Apr 9, 2005

Mpumalanga, the place of the rising sun, is one of South Africa's newest and fastest growing provinces.

Created immediately after the country's first democratic elections in 1994, Mpumalanga covers 6,5% of South Africa's surface area, constituting an area larger than Belgium and the Netherlands combined.

Its approximately three million people generate R55 billion, or 8%, of the country's annual economic output and enjoy a higher than average quality of life and faster economic growth rate than any other province.

This is a place with a real view of Africa , Huge Mountains covered in Forest and Home to the Big 5 "Kruger National Park"

 Ha ha...can you imagine anyone driving on those? they look like somewhere in outerspace;p Talking about malaria, is it still a big issue over there? I remember when I was a little girl in Nigeria, I had to get those awful shots.
