Historic Win For South Africa
The South African team could hardly hide its excitement as the celebrations went on. “Are we surprised? Not really”, South African Team leader told the journalist, speaking just after receiving the award for Most Humble People In The World.
It turns out that due to a tiny logistical concern, only votes from the South African judges has been counted. However, South African organizers emphasized that the issue could not have had any impact on the final outcome.
