Fantastic point judge: "because we are all human".
Thank you for your hard work. We have a beautiful future in SA.

We shouldn't even have any townships anymore, never mind a township economy or township tourism.
Where was Germany and Japan 30 years after WWII? Number one and number two economies in the world. Thet were bombed, broken, bankrupt and occupied. Millions dead and was NUKED! TWICE!!
Shame

South Africa was set up to fail. The elites had their hand on South Africa since before apartheid started. We need to change the system to kick out the political parties and their corrupt billionaire donors. Nothing will change until everything change.

I'm very sorry he lost his arm but must the sleeve flap? Is he trying to draw attention to it to get sympathy? If so, very cynical.

I didn’t even notice the charade. Definitely using it to his advantage. Also painting all whites with the same brush as if he was the only white person who opposed apartheid.

Free from apartheid, but not free. None of us are free when the economy is controlled by the few elites who control the majority of the economy and own the majority of the private land. These same elites are funding the majority of political parties to benefit and protect their interests. They don’t care about us the people!
Stop voting for parties bought by billionaires. Vote for parties that are funded by the people and who will fight for the people!
