THERE ARE 4 FACTORS THAT CONTRIBUTE TO DEBELOPMENT IN SOUTH AFRICA.

1) MIGRATION 

People who live in the rural areas go to live in the city because most jobs are in the city ,to support their families back home. Another reason people migrate have hopes of livivng in the city to change their lives.

3)Another factor that could contribute to the development of South Africa. I believe there is a high chances modernization will help our countries trade with other countries in ,hence there is development and an increase the countries GDP.

3)Change in political transformation.

I believe once the is change is our political leaders would bring about change. e.g in South Africa people should get red of the unqualified leaders whom brings no improvement but instead put young educated people in parliament because times have changed hence the poolitical powers change.
