The original meaning was first/second=NATO/soviet union(warsaw pact) and third=everywhere else. By that definition you would go to the third world but at least they have sushi there.
Wouldn't blame you, its a festering craphole where the crime is absolutely through the roof.
Cape Town is alright for the most part because it's where a lot of tourists go however it's still a really unsafe country because gangsters just run riot here and many of them have police under their thumb and politicians as their friends.
I've been in Cape Town / cape peninsula more than 2 decades ago. Beautiful!! Garden route, beautiful! Does the Knysna elephant refuge still exist? I loved the starry nights with no light pollution there so much, watching the milky way and the sky in a real DARK nights.... it's impossible in the "western world" .... it just makes me depressed, I don't even try to search photos from back then, anyway there were no digital cams .... LOL ^^
Sure but Cape Town always has been a premier destination for people from Europe or the states though, however the country itself is not functioning at any optimal level in order to see what sort of a future can be obtained although I don't think it'll be a good one. It doesn't look like it'll be anything different due to how politically volatile it is and how the country just lacks any sort of clear direction.
The authorities probably just record them as drug overdoses with little investigation, especially in the case of poorer Filipinos.
