Congrats Sir. In my opinion if you come from a third world nation, striving to become a great brand and a global citizen is the best situation you can place yourself and generations cos complaining and wailing about being in a failed nation won't solve any issue. It's your skills, talent, achievements and competencies that will shoot you beyond a tribal space to a global place.
