BBC
country profile
The BBC provides an overview
of the country, covering the following headings; overview,
facts, leaders, and media view. The focus is more
on "newsy" and political items rather than on hard economic
information. Nevertheless, the information is concise
and up-to-date. This is a good site to get an overall
feel of what is happening in the country currently.
