Rabie goes to Lisbon - seeking fellow investors (Golden Visa a bonus)

Appropriately, the offshore development arm is called New World. I caught up with Rabie and fellow director Malcolm Lobban ahead of next week's presentations to potential investors in Johannesburg and Cape Town. - Alec Hogg Learn more about your ad choices.
