Like most African countries, the customers Namibia exports to are happy, their government leaders are nervous and their people are living in poverty. Their immediate existence depends on their customers continuing to order their commodities. They spend what little money they have on reducing poverty and making debt payments. They are vulnerable to outside interference by terror groups and political factions, but seem to have evaded these problems.
