Both are incorrect. Durban as a city has the most Indians than any other city outside of India. In total America and UK as a country has higher population of Indians than South Africa. But no City has more Indians than in Durban South Africa
@JuicyJLee yes I'm aware of Durban as a city - didn't feel there was a need to mention it. But as a country there are several more in the diaspora with Indian populations larger than ours.
South Africa has a very small Indian population compared to other countries, especially USA UK and Malaysia. There's two classifications of Indians. PIO ( PERSON OF INDIAN ORIGIN) (13,459,195 million ) and NRI (NON RESIDENT INDIAN) 18,683645 million. South Africa, USA and Malaysia mostly has PIO. Countries in west Asia mostly have NRI as they do not offer citizenship. Just the UAE has around 1, 5 million (declared) Hindus ,more than the entire ethnic Indian population of South Africa. Dubai has the largest concentration of vegetarian restaurants in the world outside of India. That is a reflection of its large expat population from south Asia.
Steers chips are legendary. The little black bird was a Cape Starling. They are beautiful when the sun hits them. If you go to Kruger National Park they sometimes mob you at the picnic spots 😂

Be careful of zebra crossings in South Africa. That is where we stack up pedestrians to make them easier to knock over. Cars will not stop. Unless you're actually crossing a zebra crossing with a zebra. Then you're safe.

hahahaha yes we generally refer to the city center as cape town . like you can live in a suburb in cape town but outside the city and say I'm going to cape town lol
Ive noticed on my travels to America that Americans will state the suburb of a town as their town name and the concept of the center of the city being the actual town name is bizzare to them.
Tablemountain is beautiful. You can go up with a cablecar. Just outside Capetown is some of the most beautiful wine farms in the world. The restaurants on the wine farms are mostly very good food.
On Japanese-South African relations: South Africa typically exports metals (including precious metals) to Japan; we import cars and car components, since Toyota and similar cars are manufactured in SA, and we're all integrated into the supply chain. Relations are not hostile, but they're not particularly close; SA has other strategic interests than Asia, and aside from some aid programmes, Japan doesn't see Africa as being a top priority, really. Japan is kind of eclipsed by China in the local scene, so they have a limited ability to affect local outcomes. Japan proposed a trade deal some time back but SA wasn't interested; not worth the squeeze for them.
Maybe you should do a bit of homework before visiting a foreign city nevermind a country. Because you can not possibly understand what you are seeing. The history at least. Why would you visit Cape town in winter?
Truck = freight truck Bakkie = pickup truck, though you won’t find anything as big as the American ones here 😂 Kombi is the common term for minibuses, but minibus is used a lot too. Kombi was just one of VW’s well known minibus makes.
Highest crime country! There are six mexican cities, five american cities, two south american cities that rank as the most dangerous in the world. After cape town, there are twenty cities before Durban is listed, and after it there are twenty four cities before Johannesburg is listed. Only 2 South African cities appear in the 2023 report, you can guess how many US cities. In South Africa crime is mostly poverty and money related. You might get your phone snatched and live to talk about. There are no open carry cities/states in SA, nor do police approach a broken taillight in fear of their lives. How many police vehicles or ghetto birds fying behind a car chase or gun shots did you hear while in SA
@@thamiduma2925 Unnecessary for whom? If someone in CT shares incorrect information about my country, it is my patriotic NECESSITY to set the record straight. Idiots are constantly putting a moniker of "rape capital", "crime capital", "corruption capital", "uneven society", "most dangerous country" and so many other "dont go there because Africans are in power" crap, factually and statisticaly unsubstantiated opinions about SA, as if every country pales in comparison.
@@tshepomogotsi Good job. I notice so many vloggers going on about crime and safety while walking around filming alone without incident. We are always being maligned unfairly.
CPT 2024: Murder rate 11th (Mostly due to gang violence), Crime rate 17th. Crime has been dropping drastically over the years in Cape town and these crimes are now contained in specific parts of Cape Town that are further away from the city, in areas tourists don't go to, as well as the locals that have no reason to be there.
The word "bakkie" refer to the load bay, which is called a "bak" in Afrikaans. A "bakkie" is a small "bak". You can drive a bakkie with a normal code B license (GVM up to 3500kg), but need a code C and above license for a truck with a GVM above 3.5 ton.
hope you get to try cape malay food while your in the city that is uniquly Cape Town try Biesmiela in the Bo-kaap. also recommend all our local coffee shops in the city
Have you considered just searching online for things to do and what to see cz you barely explored the waterfront😂. There's a grocery store in every mall btw. So you left the grocery store at the waterfront.
Be careful of crossing. We dodge between the cars -- never imagine cars will stop at a crosswalk. Indeed, I get irritated when cars do. I'll just time it. Indian food is HUGE in SA -- we have the largest Indian community in the world outside of India. Also, Cape Cuisine (South AFrican food) is the first fusion food in the world. Absolutely love it. Remember, we were founded because of the spice trade -- so we have the native fare of Africa paired with the spices from the East, the Malaysian influence (Malaysian slaves brought by the Dutch as cooks), Indian indentured labourers brought curries, the stodgy Dutch dishes married with the French Hugenot, German, Scandinavian, English; and all the peoples of the Mediterranean -- huge Portuguese, Italian, Greek, Lebanese, Jewish. It's a proper melting pot.
To some degree, but as local it does not seem too bad. Especially for 10 minutes and the rides you get, seems okay to me. Cape Town is the most expensive City in the SA. And locals in CAPE TOWN earn less than in other cities in SA. So maybe R100 would be the sweet spot for locals and they can make up the difference by charging foreigners more.
Suppose you want to learn a bit of history about Apartheid. In that case, you can go to Robben Island, a prison on an island (NOW Museum), where Nelson Mandela and other iconic anti-apartheid activists were imprisoned.
Japan and South Africa relations are not good. Last year Japan did not invite SA during its g7 hosting, due to SA's very close relations with China and Russia, and being in BRICS competing with g7 for global hegemony.
I hope you noticed that it's safe to walk around in our beutifull city and it's kept clean unlike the shit hole city of Johannesburg where they will mug you and steal the camera
We haven't experienced loadshedding for a few months now. Fingers crossed that this continues, as it seems we've gotten past the worst of it. Our power stations have significantly improved their energy output.
Why TF would you come to an entirely new continent to a new country and not research the basics and history first. And why not look up what ketchup is called in south africa. Its tomato sauce. Ketchup literally is a sauce made of tomatoes.
It actually does make sense to have Indian food in South Africa, as it is the country in the world with the most Indian people after India itself
