"Angola is now one of Africa’s economic successes—thanks almost entirely
to oil. With a population of 20m, it has Africa’s fifth-biggest and
fastest-growing economy. Between 2004 and 2008 its GDP surged by an
average of 17% a year, topping 22% in 2007. It is the continent’s
second-biggest oil producer after Nigeria. Foreign investment is pouring
in at a rate of more than $10 billion a year. In the past decade GDP
per person is said to have tripled."
