You predict that, in 2008, 20,000 fewer people from North America will visit Australia and 30,000 more will visit South Africa, 80,000 more people from Europe will visit each of Australia and South Africa, and 150,000 more people from Asia will visit South Africa, but there will be no change in the number visiting Australia.
