Oshay Duke Jackson reacts to the news that Toddre, a Black American woman who was once very upbeat about her life in East Africa, has officially moved from Kenya to Thailand. He explores the deeper reasons behind her departure, which stem from the "middleman culture," heavy bureaucracy, and a lack of transparency that many expats face when trying to build a life or business in the region.
Oshay shares his own frustrations living in Uganda, detailing personal experiences with "snakes" in his professional circle and the common tactics used by landlords to trap tenants into paying extra money. The discussion highlights a growing trend of members of the Black Diaspora moving from Africa to Southeast Asia in search of a higher quality of life, less daily "BS," and a more peaceful environment. He emphasizes the importance of setting realistic expectations, warning that while the continent offers beauty and potential, the systemic corruption and transactional nature of many interactions can lead to burnout for those unprepared for the struggle.
