People like this guy deserve to be in a parliament as ministers, ANC just elected irrelevant people in the ministry position, As south Africans we have to strive for a better government, there are lot of South Africans with potential and skills to lead South Africa, Am tired of ANC to allow the minority to manipulate them because of money. South Africans let take the government by force, we don't have to allow the imperialist to rule our own country.
The fact is that Black ANC officials LOOTED South Africa. They never care about the poor, they never care about the children. The Imperialists done the same. There are good hearted honest South Africans like this guy from Combat, like Naledi Pandor and Nelson Mandela, but never forget the crooks amongst us that act like our brothers, but steal from the country and people
Enos, keep up the good work, my brother. South Africa cannot solve the problems of the entire continent, we have our own problems too youth unemployment being one of them. Zimbabweans must also return home and rebuild their country for the next generation. Mabena, go home and help rebuild Zimbabwe, and stop lobbying the Home Affairs Department to relax immigration rules for Zimbabweans.
My question to you is are locals willing to that job? If you could keep track of that construction side you will find out that maybe work will stop there because they are looking for locals they will not find.

Remember when we were bombarded daily on the same news channels with NGO and other "SA establishment" people (usually ethnic minorities), that said that there are no significant numbers of illegals in SA and that all these complaints are illegitimate and no jobs were being taken?

The guest is 100% about the construction sector being disproportionately dominated by foreigners. A lifetime ago during my hustling days I went to Rivonia where I had found a piece job under a subcontractor who was building for Outsurance. To my shock I was the only South Africa there. Every single one of those men I met that day who had come for work was a Lesotho national.
You must also remember ANC govt, from the start, closed nursing schools and teachers' training colleges. They also changed high school curriculum, taking away woodwork and other artisans subjects. They didn't build schools n technical colleges. We dont have colleges teaching n training the building trade.
This is the problem with a lawless country - everyone will exploit the loopholes. Companies need to be held accountable. The guy who installed my lights employed Malawians with little/no electrical experience. He just dropped them off and he left. They then continue to do bad work. This is not a way to run anything.
Starting from domestic workers, restaurants, construction.same WhatsApp group, foreigners spaza shops including their shops selling clothes, furniture etc are not paying tax...can our brother also attend this tax paying issue plssssss.he is a doing a great job 👏👏👏
As you say, 90% of workers are foreign nationals, and I can not dispute this statement. Come to the shopping center at Cnr Garsfontein and Rubinstein here in Pretoria. You will see super black men there working. They speak Shona. They are working in that building sites as bricklayers and dakaboys. They do other things there. Others are parking marshalls. A lot of them. .
Can SA work as a labourer in the construction industry that the question, how many of them will like to work in such industry which required hard work, how man black SA drive's bolt or Uber ask yourself that question, arrest all the illegal immigrant work in the construction today, i bet you , that industry will remain vacant for ever, because an average south Africa wanna work in an office with AC and even if let SA black SA agrees to work in the construction company as a labourer the next thing they will misbehaving and asking for salary increase and going on strike everyday, some people will stop coming to work and still want there salary, too much entitlement

Why can’t black SA create jobs for us? They have been enriching themselves and distracting us with illegal immigration. Many foreign companies have closed down because of our approach towards immigration and hence I found myself without job.
Yes, we forever play the blame game as if NONE of SA problems are caused by its own citizens, and as of all will be well if only we can get rid of all these "annoying" foreigners. If people have such a big issue with companies which employ foreigners, why do you still buy from them? If people are so concerned about being patriotic, why are still buying all the cheap Chinese imports instead of goods from SA companies ?? We want our African neighbours to buy from us so we can have jobs yet we also want to treat their citizens badly when they visit our country.
What a stupid question. Why would a civilian comment on the state of Lindela? The laws are very clear Xoli and the guest speaker is correct there is a crisis in South Africa and we will soon see the scenes that came out of Kenya. From the video shown I could count at least 40 workers. That’s 40 South African households with an average of 4 persons. That’s 160 South Africans with no idea of where their next meal will come from. The issues these foreign nationals have back home is not the responsibility of the South African government nor should it come at the detriment of South Africans. They must go back and fight for their countries it’s that simple.

FYI , these are not exclusively black people , so don't stereotype and assume. I'm talking about South Africans in general. The topic is about construction workers , not black construction workers.

@Amor-zone the EFF says let the black SouthAfrica get the means of Production ( Farms, Mines etc) through becoming shareholders of institutions you work in. That is way much better than mere jobs which are not even sure. The current system makes SAns at the some level with Foreign national. The EFF's manifesto makes SAns better in that it gives them ownership. This everyman for himself system only benefits the capitalist and a few connected tenderprenuers , who will actually hire the most unwanted FNs.
To EFF supporters. EFF = Open borders? Agreed? Most South Africans are sitting at home while most foreigners are working in SA? How then do you continue to support EFF?
Thats what the DA, ANC and EFF stand for. 1. The DA opposed Aaron Motsoaledi when he wanted to cancel their permits. 2. The EFF calls for them to find creative ways to enter south africa. 3. The ANC just keeps the borders opened.
@@africamania1183 I thought you wanted foreigners out of SA. Leon is making a plan for citizens especially the uneducated one to work the farms, do construction, mines. That way the tax payers won't be burdened. Child Grants will be suspended. The mother and fathers of the children will take full responsibility . I liked DA when it said will give out JOB SEARCHING GRANTS AND YOU HAVE TO PRODUCE PROOF OF THE CVS ETC. When you talk of non locals doing menial jobs, don't include a country were 75% of the people are illiterate 30% is considered a pass. Farms, minds, construction are callinf
Cresta Mall? Seriously rather raid Windsor near Cresta. Completely overtaken by foreign nationals. So many illegal Chinese and Bangladeshi nd Pakistani shops. In Northcliff there are plenty small little Pakistani cell phone "shops" and also Chinese "grocery" shops. They are fronts and are used to launder money
I am in the construction sector. Illegal immigrants from Mozambique and Zim are extremely good with technical construction knowledge. SA workers dont have a clue on construction. Foreigners can do slabs, concrete, bricklaying, roofing, etc. They have no peer. SA educational standards teach people irrelevant skills on construction. SA workers are extremely disruptive and expensive without any value.
South Africans must go out and take over works in construction, mines and farms. The home affairs ministry must make sure of that. That will also reduce the number of people getting grants even child grants, those single mothers and fathers must get jobs on the farms, and tax payers won't be burdened. The mines, farms, construction industries are calling you.
So the home affair wants to back up these wmc businesses that are promoting these worker by giving them the visas to make it easier to use these workers to reduce costs and not for the sake of south Africans
Home affairs must operate 24 hrs, coz at night or during weekends you can't detain a alleged illegal foreigner without a 212 form which can be only obtained at immigrations office
The problem we have is this government we have and now it's worse since DA is incharge because they hate black South African people now they will replace us using foreigners and ramaphosa is also not working for south African black people
Whose are the so called foreign nationals , the european apartheid settlers that currently control the land and economy amabhunu lama afrikanner..the ramaphosa anc now in bed with the da ...akulungi lutho bafethu
We are not confused about who are illegal foreigners in this country, people who jump south African borders in order to collaborate with white monopoly so that they exploited for the sole reason of undermining our government employment laws and keeping poor black south Africans out of work
Europeans are here to stay and control everything as you say, they are not going anywhere get used to it. We are not going to chase them out of the country, and later follow them around in EUROPE and other countries. THAT IS STUPID AND USELESS IDEA .
What is it that the employers really admire from foreigners that locals don't have? There's a number of reasons why South African employers choose foreign workers than locals. 1 work ethics. No employer want someone who threatens them with violence or rude to them. 2 time-line. All jobs have a dead line especially construction. As an employer and you may have mixed some chemicals that hardens in a short time but when you ask locals to push a bit and have their break in an hour's time or less in most cases locals will be like no, its my time and i have to seat. That delays the job and cost money and time as the employer may have to go and buy more chemicals. Locals dont come to work after weekend, that's a disease and clients have targets. 3) Drunkenness at work. 4)laziness mostly in construction. Complaining too much about how heavy the job is but forgetting that is the reason they are hired. They forget that if it wasn't going to be heavy i would do it myself. 5)Rudeness is a problem in restaurants or hospitality industry in general. We can't have people who talk back to clients, they are the same people bringing us business. 6) South Africans don'tlike working overtime, weekend or holidays but farm produce don' t have any of that. Produce would spoil because someone doesn't prefer to work on weekend or holiday.7) I'm sure we all want to employ someone who knows what they want. Hiring someone who came specifically for work from far away lands is like finding a needle in the middle of the ocean. This is one side of the story why employers prefer foreign people as workers than locals 1)Most companies employ foreign nationals to avoid paying tax, uif, insurance. 2) They employ foreigners so that they won't pay them accordingly
Cheap labour, environment without labour regulations and avoiding proper distributive justice, and also fomenting enmity between Black people. Despoilation and exploitation are what an employer hankers after from uneducated illegal immigrants. And you, foreigners, walk blank into the trap!
Do we understand that the economy of South Africa is built on migrant labour? From the 1800s when the apartheid state discovered gold and diamonds, and in the farms, the South African economy has always thrived from the exploitation of migrant labour. Migrant labour has made SA the biggest most developed economy in Africa. To date, most industries thrive from the migrant labour.
@ThandoPhuti Stop lying..Foreign investment Not foreign labour..we had grandparents/uncles etc working in all those sectors u mentioned, most jhb people come from the bundus & these "white farms" & small dorpies never had foreign workers until recently open your eyes the rest of the world is crying about migration & are giving their governments ultimatums 2 put their citizens 1st those same countries were labelling us Xenophobic 10/15 years ago..ujola ne zaizai mhlambe?
It will be better to have a database of south Africans looking for construction work ..then replace the foreigners with the SAns ..so that there is no disruption of projects...it's wonderful to kick out and not find adequate numbers to replace....these are investor projects..
The ironic thing is that South Africans went to Dubai to help them build their ridiculous structures and upon arrival, their passports were confiscated. Salaries were cut 3 - 5 times what they were told they would get. They were also forced to live near people they had never met in the outskirts of Dubai...
This is so easy to understand.The Trade Unions protect lazy South Africans as do the SACP. They create sheltered employment for low to zero productivity, same as government doess. SA has historically always imported labour for use on the mines. Why?, because South African labour is highly problematic. SA should by all means support open borders and use whatever labour it chooses to from the continental pool. Only then will SA grow again. At the same time, government is also not required. What do they do for SA based on what we can see and experience. Answer, NOTHING!
Leave South Africans to be lazy alone in their country and the hard workers should go to their countries and build them since they are so hard working 😂😂😂😂we wanna see the hard work y'all talk about let's see you countries 👀
Construction is not booming because of exploitation. Its booming because of cheap labour. If Southafrica used cheap labour efficiently it would become a dominant manufacturing economy like China.
The Combat inspection group must visit the Western Cape and start with the restaurants in Waterfront. Unfortunately our immigration law under amendment does not allow us to detain and deport illegal foreigners, they get off easily on warning or with a suspended sentence or payment of a fine not more than one thousand rand. In fact as the justice department we deported most illegal foreigners but they come back next week coz unfortunately they are worse off in their countries, we have no border entry controls - Most Zimbabweans just walk into the country or take a taxi/bus and unfortunately our home affairs does not even have the capacity to assist the foreigners that are willing legalize their status in the country. Please invite Thabo Mbeki and Zuma and ask him about the arms deal and why he prioritized financing his arms deal while most South African citizens died due to lack of funds for HIV/AIDS treatment. We still need answers.
Nigeria has the same problem, but the issue is that foreign companies hire nigerians from the other side of the country, where the factory is and refuse to hire locals. It is always exploitation, but different forms of it.
Globalists are making citizens of one country or influence citizens of other countries to come and disturbs job market so that we start fighting amongst ourselves while they and their families are counting monies

Does that mean that if I refer to a hitch-hiker , construction worker , domestic worker or whatever , I'm immediately referring to black people ?
FYI , these are not exclusively black people , so don't stereotype and assume. I'm talking about South Africans in general. The topic is about construction workers , not black construction workers. Foreigners are not just black people either. Some of them come from Bangladesh , China and other non-African countries.
For the record , the hitch hiker involved was coloured.
@DumaM-ir7rk If you referred to a criminal and I assumed that he was black , would you be offended ?

That is way much better than mere jobs which are not even sure.

I liked DA when it said will give out JOB SEARCHING GRANTS AND YOU HAVE TO PRODUCE PROOF OF THE CVS ETC.

My sister and her colleagues lost their job at the petrol station because the station employed Congolese and Zimbabwen nationals.
Cresta Mall? Seriously rather raid Windsor near Cresta. Completely overtaken by foreign nationals. So many illegal Chinese and Bangladeshi nd Pakistani shops. In Northcliff there are plenty small little Pakistani cell phone "shops" and also Chinese "grocery" shops. They are fronts and are used to launder money
I am in the construction sector. Illegal immigrants from Mozambique and Zim are extremely good with technical construction knowledge. SA workers dont have a clue on construction. Foreigners can do slabs, concrete, bricklaying, roofing, etc. They have no peer. SA educational standards teach people irrelevant skills on construction. SA workers are extremely disruptive and expensive without any value.
Lmao you not a South African 😮
Good for them💅🏾 but they must go do that in their own countries though 🤷🏾♀️ their countries need their skill more than us if we being honest

Like your country does
Being illegal means you broke a particular law. No hate and nothing personal.
It's not your father's business.
South Africans must go out and take over works in construction, mines and farms. The home affairs ministry must make sure of that. That will also reduce the number of people getting grants even child grants, those single mothers and fathers must get jobs on the farms, and tax payers won't be burdened. The mines, farms, construction industries are calling you.
When are they going to visit the White Owned Farms???
As far as the grape farms of the Northern Cape they work on the farms....
So the home affair wants to back up these wmc businesses that are promoting these worker by giving them the visas to make it easier to use these workers to reduce costs and not for the sake of south Africans
Construction work is not for the faint hearted.

The problem we have is this government we have and now it's worse since DA is incharge because they hate black South African people now they will replace us using foreigners and ramaphosa is also not working for south African black people

Shut up and pack up
All included
We are not confused about who are illegal foreigners in this country, people who jump south African borders in order to collaborate with white monopoly so that they exploited for the sole reason of undermining our government employment laws and keeping poor black south Africans out of work
Europeans are here to stay and control everything as you say, they are not going anywhere get used to it. We are not going to chase them out of the country, and later follow them around in EUROPE and other countries. THAT IS STUPID AND USELESS IDEA .
Case in point, the Western Cape George building collapse where some employees late and alive were undocumented in the Construction project
What is it that the employers really admire from foreigners that locals don't have? There's a number of reasons why South African employers choose foreign workers than locals. 1 work ethics. No employer want someone who threatens them with violence or rude to them. 2 time-line. All jobs have a dead line especially construction. As an employer and you may have mixed some chemicals that hardens in a short time but when you ask locals to push a bit and have their break in an hour's time or less in most cases locals will be like no, its my time and i have to seat. That delays the job and cost money and time as the employer may have to go and buy more chemicals. Locals dont come to work after weekend, that's a disease and clients have targets. 3) Drunkenness at work. 4)laziness mostly in construction. Complaining too much about how heavy the job is but forgetting that is the reason they are hired. They forget that if it wasn't going to be heavy i would do it myself. 5)Rudeness is a problem in restaurants or hospitality industry in general. We can't have people who talk back to clients, they are the same people bringing us business. 6) South Africans don'tlike working overtime, weekend or holidays but farm produce don' t have any of that. Produce would spoil because someone doesn't prefer to work on weekend or holiday.7) I'm sure we all want to employ someone who knows what they want. Hiring someone who came specifically for work from far away lands is like finding a needle in the middle of the ocean.
This is one side of the story why employers prefer foreign people as workers than locals
1)Most companies employ foreign nationals to avoid paying tax, uif, insurance.
2) They employ foreigners so that they won't pay them accordingly
So it’s best to break the law and employ undocumented immigrants ? Employers should face the full might of the law.
kunini sithi EXPLOITATION
Well employers are just looking for slaves and lots of these kwerekweres are one 😂😂😂😂😂
Cheap labour, environment without labour regulations and avoiding proper distributive justice, and also fomenting enmity between Black people.
Despoilation and exploitation are what an employer hankers after from uneducated illegal immigrants.
And you, foreigners, walk blank into the trap!
Do we understand that the economy of South Africa is built on migrant labour? From the 1800s when the apartheid state discovered gold and diamonds, and in the farms, the South African economy has always thrived from the exploitation of migrant labour. Migrant labour has made SA the biggest most developed economy in Africa. To date, most industries thrive from the migrant labour.
We do and we trying to change that. Whats your point.
America was built on slave labour. Does that mean slavery must continue??
The point is legality. No one has any issues with a legal documented migrant. What is your point?
@@user-mj1vk2nw9z my point is no foreigner legal or not should be employed for general work if there is an unemployed SAn that can do the job.

It will be better to have a database of south Africans looking for construction work ..then replace the foreigners with the SAns ..so that there is no disruption of projects...it's wonderful to kick out and not find adequate numbers to replace....these are investor projects..
The ironic thing is that South Africans went to Dubai to help them build their ridiculous structures and upon arrival, their passports were confiscated. Salaries were cut 3 - 5 times what they were told they would get. They were also forced to live near people they had never met in the outskirts of Dubai...
Where were SAns when foreigners were taking over.
It's easy to blame, but no one want to take responsibility
This is so easy to understand.The Trade Unions protect lazy South Africans as do the SACP. They create sheltered employment for low to zero productivity, same as government doess.
SA has historically always imported labour for use on the mines. Why?, because South African labour is highly problematic.
SA should by all means support open borders and use whatever labour it chooses to from the continental pool. Only then will SA grow again.
At the same time, government is also not required. What do they do for SA based on what we can see and experience. Answer, NOTHING!

The Combat inspection group must visit the Western Cape and start with the restaurants in Waterfront. Unfortunately our immigration law under amendment does not allow us to detain and deport illegal foreigners, they get off easily on warning or with a suspended sentence or payment of a fine not more than one thousand rand. In fact as the justice department we deported most illegal foreigners but they come back next week coz unfortunately they are worse off in their countries, we have no border entry controls - Most Zimbabweans just walk into the country or take a taxi/bus and unfortunately our home affairs does not even have the capacity to assist the foreigners that are willing legalize their status in the country. Please invite Thabo Mbeki and Zuma and ask him about the arms deal and why he prioritized financing his arms deal while most South African citizens died due to lack of funds for HIV/AIDS treatment. We still need answers.
Nigeria has the same problem, but the issue is that foreign companies hire nigerians from the other side of the country, where the factory is and refuse to hire locals. It is always exploitation, but different forms of it.
This is not the same
A company from Nigeria can't open in SA then hire Nigerians who live in SA.
