What should I take to Africa?

What is it going to take to turn things around in South Africa?

  • What will it really take for the situation to change - for this beautiful country to become somewhere safe and wonderful that we can recommend to our friends as a brilliant place for a holiday - or to become a great place to live and raise a family again? As far as I can see, as long as people go around saying "Sure there's crime BUT" nothing will ever change! Only when there's this deep realisation that things cannot go on as they are - and a deep anger at what things have become - and people are willing to stand up and refuse to take it for another second - only then can it change. Do you agree? What do you think it's going to take?

  • Answer:

    The current old clan of freedom fighters in the ANC don't have a clue about proper governing. They are (with the exception of one or two) not true professionals in their jobs. We need capable, impartial leaders, who realise SA is a multicultural entity which can be an important roleplayer internationally. Leaders who not only blindly sing the chorus of a black African republic together with the rest of Africa into political and economic obscurity. Strong and innovative leaders who can create new prosperity in finance and technology, instead of running around in circles in their political vendettas. It's not about the colour of our leaders, it's about getting leaders who are true visionaries. Whether they're black, brown or white doesn't matter. Ordinary citizens like you and me cannot make these and all the big changes and good suggestions mentioned in some of the other answers. We can only VOTE, and there's the rub...

It's happening right now, in the form of AIDS. Eventually, the criminals running what used to be South Africa are going to have to sit up and take notice, or genuinely risk running out of people.

Maybe as an answer to the high crime stats: go back to the good-old-bad-old-days when someone got hung for murder? Since the death penalty has been abolished the rise in violent crime & the general disregard for human life has been on an increase. Maybe we go back to peole doing hard labour in the prisons: this may help deter the criminals. Until the peoples of this wonderful country stand together seriously, and no longer accept what's being thrown at us, then things will carry on as they are.

The HIV/ AIDS time bomb is going to do the job, no matter what they try in future the process will run it's course, nature's way of culling the weak.

I am South African currently working in Taiwan because my opportunities in SA was really limited and the payment was a disgrace. I believe SA should start looking at the people, doesn't matter what race or gender, what can we do for our people and not what the people can do for me. SA is stuck in Apartheid again - not by proper name calling - but it feels that way. It seems everybody is so conserned what they can get from anybody else. Now I live between people from other countries and it is amazing how self centered our nation is. It's sad. I would really want to go back and raise a family but now I'm too scared. Most people would say I shouldn't have left in the first place - I betrayed my country - but I don't want to live in a country that is self centered....... What's your opinion.....
