This looks like provider may have difficulty reaching your specified region. Can you verify that `aws sts get-caller-identity` works for your defined region?

Thanks for the suggestion, Josh. I ran this on the CLI:
```aws sts get-caller-identity --region af-south-1```
and it successfully returned with my account details, so not sure how Pulumi is calling this.
