EHeller's got the main point, here; we kindof want the transition to go a little faster than 'centuries'. If we're careful, we can hopefully make the transition happen in merely a two or three generations, instead.
(Then, of course, Affirmative Action will need to be stopped - which is probably going to be quite a political battle, involving lots of shouting an arguments in Parliament. And hopefully no more than that.)
Or we can screw up and cause the country to collapse into chaos, i.e., what's happening now in Zimbabwe.
Yes, that's also a possibility. There's the very visible example of Zimbabwe to show what not to do, of course; I'm not saying that there won't be a mess-up, but if there is a mess-up I'm pretty sure it'll at least be a different mess-up.
