ANC had little competence to start off with so their promises was either loaded ambition or mere stupidity. Considering their latest performance I would say it is the latter.

This brings to what they had to to start off with. What they inherited was a country with infrastructure that could only cater for 30 % of the population plus a situation where 80% were illiterate, mal nourished and diseased. Heck of a legacy to deal with I would say.

Pieter ,recrimination and arrogance is the favourite passtime of the ANC.The way forward is to look listen and learn from those who have the expertise and know how.
What the did in the last 12 years is replace competence with incompetence therefore destroying the economy and their very own future,

I think it is rather replacing incompetence with incompetence. the last Competent government SA had was when the General Jannie Smuts ran things. After the General went off the seen, everything went belly up.

Whites do need to be better represented.
The trouble is, in this country it is rare to see a march of white people united, holding hands and walking through the main streets of jhb or pta.
It is partly a culture of letting your political party do it for you, and it is partly the fear of being assualted and hurt by black onlookers.
It is easy for the ANC to defy a white party or white opposition leader.
It won't be any less difficult for the ANC to ignore white's in the street, but the media will get that out and there is where it starts to put pressure on the government. When the world begins to take note it is a very quick fall from grace.

Sure it sounds good Whites must speak out,but to who and will they listen ?

The whites must speak out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I clearly remember a few years ago when the ratepayers of Santon withheld their rates as a protest against injustice and being loaded with Alexandra as a dependant.

NOT ONE OTHER MUNICIPALITY's RATEPAYERS JOINED THEM. They were left to fight a lone battle and lost because of the lack of white support.

Don't speak to me about unity of the whites. We can't even even decide on one political party to represent us. Where are the white leaders?

We are becoming good at running away but the grass is not always greener on the other side and I for one, who have made and enjoyed a fairly prosperous life here for the last 51 years, intend of sticking it out and trying to help make it as good for others as it has been for me.

TO ALL THE WHITE SEPERATISTS: I wish to remind you that SIMON GRINDROD, still has an open invitation to pay your flight costs to GET OF THIS COUNTRY PROVIDED YOU DO NOT RETURN. You all operate on the notion that the grass is greener on the other side, Well I ask again, why are you still here? I do not believe the shyte; Oh I was born here crap, I say you CANNOT WALK YOUR TALK. LEKKER BANG Ne, BANGBROEKE!!!!!
I also issue this warning: If whites feel that their interests are seperate to those who this country belongs to. You are all an endangered species. We have been far to patient with you. We bent over backwards at CODESA and we are sick and tired of babysitting your fears. We are GATVOL of you! You are living a good life. You do not have issues around jobs or food. You are still priviledged through a capitalist system, so why are you complaining. I will tell you why, You want to be in power in order to abuse people. You want to be in power only because you believe that the colour of your skin makes you superior. You want to be in power only because of YOUR BAASKAP history. There is no other reason, not the crime, not the BEE, not the 15 yrs, not ANC. It is about POWER and you hate the fact that you have NO POWER!
POWER TO THE PEOPLE!
WOZA,WOZA UMKHONTO WE SIZWE!!!!!!!!!!!

I disagree to a large extent. Every morally and civically minded SA citizen that stands against corruption, nepotism and incompetence must stand together and speak out.

For once I actually agreed with Malema when he spoke out against our so called Minister of Education. In any other progressive country Pandor would of been out the door after the string of results lately. Just because she can speak coherently I also presumed she knew what she was doing. So far the results present another story.

Leaving this country in the hands of the current corrupt, inept leaders of the ANC will see another Zimababwe.

A Luta Ta Fudida!
