Shares are long term investments, just like property. If you feel like speculating, rather start your own business buying and selling whatever. At least that way you are in charge of your investment and you can get out when you want to. Why risk investing off shore where the returns are dismal and the exchange rate may turn against you?
As Nickolai says; Invest in your own economy.
