Namibia was under apartheid South Africa when it got its independence in 1990.. I am glad I was there during the celebrations and inauguration of President Nujoma. Under apartheid, mainly black, colored and Indian groups were forced by law to live in own communities.. The development of both South Africa and now Namibia, which was then called South West Africa was done on the basis of separate residential areas.., under the legislation of what was called the "group areas act' of apartheid South Africa, if I remember correctly.. Namibia today is an exact replica of what South Africa is today.. Thanks for the video, heart-breaking as it is...
Walvis bay was South African territory until Mandela gave it to Namibia in 1994.older people in the town still hold South African and Namibian citizenship
groundnuts taste like fresh beans makunde in oshiwambo/ swahili. Mopani worms is delicasy and foreigners did reseach is very healthy and full of proteins and others.
Namibia's coloured comminity has it's roots in the Cape Province of SA. They are ppl of mixed race. Genetically they are very similar to the Rehoboth Basters and both speak Afrikaans, although the accent and dialetcs does differ. Basters are offspring of Nama and Dutch settlers. In the 1860s with mounting pressure from the Boers a group of about 90 families trekked to Namibia. They initially settled near Warmbad in Southern Namibia, but in 1880 they settled in the area of Rehoboth. At that time this area was home to the Bondelswart, a group of Namas. If you want to see a great population of Basters, Rehoboth would be the place. Coloreds are scarted in Urban areas of the coast and Windhoek (esp. Khomasdal area). During apartheid the white minority government had a system of social stratification, where white citizens had the highest status, followed by Indians and coloureds, then Black Africans, this included where people had to settle. So you find locations even in Namibia and SA wherever there are more coloreds/basters than others.
Very informative ,and spot on. I am happy that you had mentioned the Indians as apart of the colored people, hence,, when they travel, to this day, act very privilege'.
Thanks for the information.. I came to the first Namibia independence celebrations from South Africa... I remember hearing about Rehoboth and it being the hotbed of resistance to Namibian independence from South Africa, or something like that.. I guess the whole thing fizzed out with time..
That was hostel ,all contractors workers were accommodated in hostels/ compunds were every towns but after independence government abandoned hostels and build low income houses.but there is still some people resist to stay there.
Hi Kish those mopani worms you are eating you are testing are my favourite food l wish am nearby to join you.keep up bro to show us different places .we❤❤❤ our Kenyan brother hope so far you are enjoying Namibia ,s natural food.
Namibia has some beautiful areas. I love what I’m seeing. It doesn’t look ghetto at all. Those trees look like palm trees. I love nuts they are healthy.
Colored people are not necessarily just a mixture of black and white people. You can have someone with dark skin who is also considered colored. They're not biracial but rather multiracial, with a mixed ancestry ranging from Asians, mostly Indians, Europeans, and other African groups, mostly the Khoikhoi or Bushmen. They're not black, nor are they white; they have their own distinct ethnicity, similar to the Latinos of the Americas who also trace their ancestry to Europeans, Africans, and Native Americans. For example, popular South African musician Tyla identifies as colored, not biracial. The colored ethnicity is an individual identity and culture on its own. It's not as simple as just black and white - there is a lot of complex historical intermixing that has formed the colored culture. One instance is the Dutch settlers mixing with the Khoisan, giving rise to the Basters and Afrikaners who speak Afrikaans.
Kish, its not just Namibia and South Africa with segregated locations. There are coloured locations in Zimbabwe as well - Arcadia, Thorngrove, Trenance, Romney Park, Sauerstown, Queens Park, Barham Green, Northlea, Trenance, Montrose etc. Bulawayo has the most coloured locations.
You are talking about now.. The subject here is about the past and its legacy.., here in South Africa and in Namibia.. I hear the same is happening in Zimbabwe.. I am surprised that as a Zimbabwean you don't know better..
Nice video Kish the old men was trying to tell you that area is called compon was build by the Afrikaners before independence and that time most people from the north the wamboes are the ones who were staying in there and working in factories as contract workers after independence most compons were broken down and low income houses build but some areas people didnt want to move so the government abonderned the place
@kivumbiyusuf2330 SADC politics are the same, whatever country you land in as a Southerner, you just understand the story without any questions and explanation.
In all the towns you will find this different locations Windhoek, Okahandja, Swakopmund, Walvisbay only in the north you cant find such cos it was considered a warzone and other tribes didnt really go there except those who were fighting with Swapo back then
@kish_myworld it has changed. But you need to remember some homes are generational homes. In Windhoek, Khomasdal was a coloured neighbourhood but as more and more coloureds sold their homes black people are now a lot there. Same for for places like Windhoek North and West. These two used to be whites only, but now 90% black. Newer suburbs have a balanced mix of ethnicities. Even in Katutura the neighbourhoods were divided according to ethnicities. So you find Ovambo location, Nama location etc. So naturally even now majority of people staying there will be of a particular ethnicity since those are generational homes.
Disappointed in my favorite country namibia of 2.6M people with abundant natural.resources,there shd not be any citizen living like this,it looks like open street, homeless in some of our countries.
Is true l agree with you really everything is not look good in Namibia , I'm crying community like not in their own country. REALLY NAMIBIA IS down we suffer,
The people were devided by the Afrikaners when they build houses they build houses for blacks and different houses for coloureds and basters and then for them selves also far from each other and thats alsp how it was with the treatment a black person was treated badly than the colored or baster by the whites same with the salary a black perspn and a coloured and a white person might have the same position at work but the salary back then would be different according to your skin color, some things only Sputh Africans and Namibians can understand cos they went through the same apartheid regime and apartheid was different from colonialism
This dividing technique has beeb used by the FRENCH colonizers : the principle is to divide them and have them fight against each other while the Whites are left alone and controlling.
Kenya buddy can you plz ask that guy you walking around with to help me with his number contact details i am going to need him next month. I am coming swakopmund n walvis bay so plz
I found the man in the yellow jacket super hard to understand. I'd try the insects, the nuts . . . but the alcohol . . . I sort of doubt I'd drink that.
Kish my world don't be scared of mopani worms they are tasteful and mostly they are full of proteins l can tell bro l personally l enjoy them than the beef meat.
We are so lucky because uhm. And the racist Indians were kicked out from Uganda. That’s why Ugandans we don’t have foreigners acting like superior better than the natives. I thank God
Jah Rastafari Blessings kish my World 🌎 too much segregation cause by no representation from governance rich on One side and the less fortunate in tenement setting. One Day they will all Eat nothing last forever..

Hi my favorite subscriber

Kish can ask questions the whole day, he doesn't get tired, I trust you when coming to questions.
Hahaha I am a very inquisitive Kish
kenya buddy love you ma buddy

I just stumbled on your channel. I like the content. You should come to the north.
On my way
@@kish_myworld be sure to check out Omatara at Oshakati (on Monday and Friday only!) for food and creative crafts. You will learn so much

In the end all humans are descendants of a black man.
Namibia is very quite, expect a lot of people everywhere when you finally make it to Zambia but very friendly too
That mopane worm it's very yummy more than meat i like it🐛
Kish, its not just Namibia and South Africa with segregated locations. There are coloured locations in Zimbabwe as well - Arcadia, Thorngrove, Trenance, Romney Park, Sauerstown, Queens Park, Barham Green, Northlea, Trenance, Montrose etc. Bulawayo has the most coloured locations.
Thanks for the info.. I've been to Zim years ago and I didn't notice..
Never knew that in zim we have segregated communities l thought anyone lives wherever they afford or want
You are talking about now.. The subject here is about the past and its legacy.., here in South Africa and in Namibia.. I hear the same is happening in Zimbabwe.. I am surprised that as a Zimbabwean you don't know better..
Nice video Kish the old men was trying to tell you that area is called compon was build by the Afrikaners before independence and that time most people from the north the wamboes are the ones who were staying in there and working in factories as contract workers after independence most compons were broken down and low income houses build but some areas people didnt want to move so the government abonderned the place
Oh wow
Please before posting your comment. Walvis is not the poorest place in Namibia. Get the right information first..
Mopane worm very nutrious delicase,found in zambia too.
good to see you again, Kish. The Zebra skin would look good on you as a loin cloth, lol.
haha
These areas got so much similarities with south african community, coz even SA they got coloureds, even shopprite is originally S. Africa store
Coloureds are found in most parts of SADC. There are coloured locations in Zimbabwe as well, and in Angola.
@kivumbiyusuf2330 SADC politics are the same, whatever country you land in as a Southerner, you just understand the story without any questions and explanation.
Interesting to see
Very!
Toppa da morning kish 🙏❤️
Marcia. Top top
Just now we have warm ☀️ weather in Sweden ☀️
Coming soon
Hi Kish enjoy Namibia, walvisbay 🇳🇦🇳🇦try curry fish👌🏾
greetings my brother❤❤❤❤
Big up
That song playing in background by yo maps 🇿🇲
That made very strong Shue❤Jamaica
In all the towns you will find this different locations Windhoek, Okahandja, Swakopmund, Walvisbay only in the north you cant find such cos it was considered a warzone and other tribes didnt really go there except those who were fighting with Swapo back then
Please that guy is not Namibian you must take a local a Namibian
Location demarcated along racial lines is common in most towns across the country. It orginates from the colonial era under the apartheid system.
Hope it can change
@kish_myworld it has changed. But you need to remember some homes are generational homes. In Windhoek, Khomasdal was a coloured neighbourhood but as more and more coloureds sold their homes black people are now a lot there.

Divide and conquer method by the Whites !

Is true l agree with you really everything is not look good in Namibia , I'm crying community like not in their own country. REALLY NAMIBIA IS down we suffer,
They need to organize through CO-OPERATIVES to stand under wide batches instead of small umbrellas and use better stands for their goods display.
The people were devided by the Afrikaners when they build houses they build houses for blacks and different houses for coloureds and basters and then for them selves also far from each other and thats alsp how it was with the treatment a black person was treated badly than the colored or baster by the whites same with the salary a black perspn and a coloured and a white person might have the same position at work but the salary back then would be different according to your skin color, some things only Sputh Africans and Namibians can understand cos they went through the same apartheid regime and apartheid was different from colonialism

That wasn't a hostel its a compound where blacks use to stay during apartheid until 1994 whereby walvisbay got it's independence
Hi Kish ❤😂Jamaica nice Vlog
Thanks sister
There is Namas, Basters and coloureds. Most of them look mixed
👊🏽👊🏽💯
❤🎉🎉🎉🎉
those cooked nuts are called NJUGU in swahili
Those nuts are Njugu mawe in swahili you can boil and eat as nuts. The dried one can be cooked like beans and eaten with ugali or rice.
@@mectildiskatyale6771 njugu or njugumawe one and same.
But those compounds were not tht size but it waz very big
Next time take a citizen or local person as a tour guide not a Zimbambwean or Angolan
😂😂😂😂
Sounds like a real zimbabwean😂😂

Can South African coins be used in Namibia ?
Absolutely...
Kish my world don't be scared of mopani worms they are tasteful and mostly they are full of proteins l can tell bro l personally l enjoy them than the beef meat.
haha okay will try not to
African governments are the same, country with small population all.citizens shd live a decent life.
Botswana is an exception ,there are no slums in Botswana
The thing with East Africa maybe they never had whites after the European left
We are so lucky because uhm. And the racist Indians were kicked out from Uganda. That’s why Ugandans we don’t have foreigners acting like superior better than the natives. I thank God
But that guy is not a Namibian, you took a wrong person sir.

Busy blocking investors, if not confronted. Must go back where he comes from.
how?
Why the aggressio for nothing 😂
Mopani worms are in Zambia, Zimbabwe, Namibia, Botswana, South Africa, Angola and Malawi. So in Southern Afrika they chop them a lot.
