At last, new hope in South Africa.
« on: January 29, 2012, 04:38:40 AM »
There is new hope that the current looting  of our country by corruptive and incompetent goverment officials will come to an end in future.

A new organization has just been launched by very concerned leaders in our country, and even Cosatu, a local Trade Union who is often seen as "radical", is supporting this new initiative:

It's not just your homeland Danie, the Un-United States, is in a free fall whirlpool of corruption and thievery .

A man in a white shirt and tie, can and will steal more money than a man with a gun anyday !!!

Our circumstances are very different Bob.

Our biggest problem in unemployment. There is no hope for the millions of very poor in our country, because the politicians are enriching themselves and their families , while the very poor citizens are getting poorer by the day.

A sure resipe for disaster.

As indicated at the first link above, many Goverment institutions in large parts of our country are completely disfunctional, and this beloved counyty is simply falling apart.

Danie - consider yourself (and all other South Africans) lucky. I just looked up the stats on Transparency International's website. SA ranks 64 -where I live ranks 100! interestingly enough New Zealand ranks the best at 1 and  Somali the lowest at 182 !
