Are we ready for BRIC?

You may have heard that South Africa was recently asked to join the BRIC (Brazil, Russia, India and China) group of large emerging economies -- which to SA is a great honour and indication of its economic strength -- however, it also begs a few questions on how easy it will be for us to understand and adapt to the different business practices.

Did you know, for example, that in China a large number of PA's actually have a MBA?

It would be interesting to know the South African statistics.
