Character
In my line of work as a freelance consultant, I come across Africans, Asians and Europeans (all white people are called Europeans, heh heh).
What I can say is that Africans have a problem getting the job done.
When you agree to meet with a Mhindi at 9 am, he will be there at 9 am, ready to work. If he/she cannot make it, they'll call. Africans have a problem of lacking a sense of urgency, of overbooking themselves, and of not calling when unavailable. Africans have many many excuses, very many. Mhindis tend to look at each challenging situation with an attitude of "creative solution-finding."
