could you do a video on why people in Africa are so corrupt they will watch their countries turn to chaos? id like to hear your thoughts.
@@inconnu4961 both parties in the USA are right wing, leftists believe in strong unions and high taxes
Don’t worry thanks to paper money printing western countries aren’t far behind South Africa
@@leperabbot3343 They also believe women have penises, the Constitution and founding fathers were corrupt, and China is their Sugar Daddy. You are either delusional or severely ill-informed if you think the Democratic Party is not absolutely pursuing a radical leftist agenda.
"never, ever" is a moronic take...do you see into the future by some chance. the anc is a problem, one amongst many.
Let us not forget, South Africa is inherently a wealthy country with massive resources. For SA to fail, the incompetence and corruption must be massive.
It is massive. Gangsters posing as politicians. That's what we have.
@@toparadise9641 Which means one of two things, there would be revolution or the people like it. Obviously, the people like it. Hence, they are garbage people and I don't want any of them here.
That's only because the country has no way to leverage their resources and convert it into wealth. Mining bosses are usually politically connected individuals who got it that way (The State Capture Commission revealed that a mine even went to one of the state capture entities), the people who are supposed to monitor all of this have no academic or practical background in the industry (some Ministerial appointments are truly bizarre) and the amount of corruption and leakage that occurs is pretty well-known (RUMOR: the thieves who stole gold and other resources from the mines during afterhours periods were even APPROACHED by the government to mine for them).
There's also the issue that foreign ownership being the only groups that can actually bankroll such an operation, and the fact that it leaves local workers in a weird spot.
Is it not massive already?
Africa is the most resource rich continent on the planet, yet look at the state of every sub-Saharan African country... what is the common denominator?
My South African friend told me "First we had White Power, then we had Black Power. Now we have no power"
So sad, all this social division bullshit contributed to SA downfall
Just look at the Average IQ in Africa. SA was only better of than the rest of Africa because of its amount of white people. There are brilliant black people. But the average black person isnt and thus they arent able to run a modern country. I dont know why people neglect literal facts nowadays.
nothing to do with race..
@@Rockstarmade224 You're being sarcastic I assume...
@@Rockstarmade224 it’s funny you say that, because black South Africans would disagree with you 100% of the time and they make up the vast majority of the population, even if it wasn’t about race they’re making it about race and so it is that whites must fight back to protect what’s theirs.
And they still manage to blame all this on apartheid 30 years on 😅😅😅
Yeah we have an awful lot of the same shit here in America too!
@@CutterDriftwoodbecause it's true. I don't know why white people have such as hard time admitting that.
@CutterDriftwood when the government, police, business and regular people all work against a certain group of people the effects of that will be seen for generations
Yeah just like colonialism is blamed for much of the issues in africa.
The problem is not Apartheid, it's AA and BEE.
South Africa used to have nukes. How the mighty have fallen, now it struggles with electricity generation. I feel sorry for the South African people, the ANC's incompetence is astounding.
Oh my god can you imagine if these clowns still had nuclear weapons??
@@rsjcoman9230luckily the boers knew what could happen and foreshadowed the future and dismantled all nukes built by the boer scientist’s. Im from south africa and have had many ancestors who have been prolific in the history of south africa, i can tell you the amount of nukes they built is still a mystery until this day. They tested these nukes on the sea, many times other country picking up a big disturbance on their radars almost like a earthquake , but its south africa testing nukes in secrecy, south africa had one of the mightiest militaries on this planet, we were excellent engineers and build vehicles used in war for most country’s still used today probably, even elite intelligence groups like mossad came to south african boers to learn guerrilla warfare from us.
@@rsjcoman9230they would become north korea, the world would totaly isolate them
The South African people deserve every bit of it…. They voted for it…
Turns out passing laws that make it illegal to employ qualified people doesn't work out
You'd think the clowns in America pushing affirmative action/DEI would know that already
Reply hidden 🤣
Yep and the fucked up thing is it's happening in the west ,all inclusive and equality 😮
Who could have predicted that?
Can you provide more detail of what they made illegal? Sorry, I don't know much about South Africa.
My Dutch parents lived there in the fifties when apartheid just took off. My mom did not like that and they returned to the Netherlands. My father always maintained that if the ANC would be in power, the country would tank within a generation. I always fiercly opposed him. My dad has been dead for over a decade now. But sorry dad, you were right.
Because you were an idiotic leftist idealist. As a white nationalist I can see this for all white majority nations if we don't correct the path we are on.
May I ask what made your parents wish to move to South Africa back then as Dutch Dutchmen from the Netherlands?
What ever made you doubt your father? The rest of africa is enough evidence he would be right
If you aren't a Democrat in your 20's you have no heart and if you aren't Republican in your 30's you have no brain.
My grandfather used to teach at a college in Cape Town, he said the same thing for years. You can't expect a culture that did not create the systems and infrastructure to maintain it when it's handed to them.
And now we find out how Wakanda would have looked IRL.
Wakanda does not allow white people to occupy their country...
There are plenty of other African countries that are making very good progress. This isn't a black thing but incompetence on behalf of this country's leadership.
youre no better than those woke blm ppl u despise for blaming this on race
South Africa had the potential to be a beacon to the whole of Africa.
Now it's no more than a study piece how far a country can fall
A place with cruel horrific genocide and apartheid can never be a bacon to africa. It was doomed to start. West Africa is on the Rise. A true pan African lead countries who believe in kicking out white colonizers and capitalizing on our own resources and wealth is a bacon of hope for Africans not only in Africa but globally
Put the whites back in charge, and all these issues will be resolved
Duh . We knew what would happen decades ago.
It had the potential to become African
Nope. Nothing build on evil apartheid and colonialism will ever be successful in Africa. We are looking at Niger / Burkina Faso and Mali for Theo pan African leadership and kicking out the white folks
I live in Argentina and it's absolutely terrifying how millions of peoples' lives and entire countries can just be ruined by a few incompetent people.
yeah, getting rich by exploiting every resource of the land while we see nothing of that money. no politician will ever change a country unless its people become knowledgeable first, otherwise the status quo will remain the same
Many incompetent people, not just a few.
I feel so damn bad for Argentina... A beautiful developed, world leading country driven into a developing world shit-hole in the space of just a few decades... 🤦 Argentina could have been a bigger Chile, but instead it's more like a smaller Brazil... Utterly plagued with inflation and dysfunctional corruption.
The fact that Chile is the only first world country left in Latin America isn't an accident. When everyone else was going crazy with insular far left economic policies driven by military dictatorships busy nationalizing every damn thing they could (so that those in power could easily & quietly rob said industries wealth), they brought in the free market-stan Chicago Boys to liberalize the FUCK out of the Chilean economy. (Yes, this inevitably increased wealth inequality BUT the overall level of wealth inside of the country exploded SOOOOOO GOD DAMN MUCH that even Chile's poorest were/are WAAAAAAAY better off than they'd be in Mexico or Brazil.)
A bunch of civil rights activists took over a country without a single one understanding the basics of how to run it, only that they want to get one over on the people they feel wronged them. It's happening in North America right now too but the divided system of the United States is keeping it afloat(almost like that's by design). Canada though, Canada is beyond saving and its government knows it.
this awaits us too, we are similar
Here, in the USA, journalists would rather drink a whole bucket of warm spit than report on this ongoing South African nightmare!
the aclu might yell at them
they may be labeled racists and be cut off from payment processors
I'm sure there are those who WANT to report on it, they're just scared of life ruination that could come from anything they write.
So the problem is that the people who are interested are going for a very specific narrative. Namely about how the blacks fuck things up when they take over from the whites. I literally have not met one of them who was not annoyed when I tried to introduce nuance into the discussion on white farmer/landowners and explained that it was specific to farmers and not whites overall who were less likely to be murdered per capita.
👍
that's because they are in the process of turning the US into South Africa
Why is SA America’s problem? SA wanted independence and 24,206 murders per year with a women or child graped every 15 seconds..no thanks
BTW 96% of the American media is owned by 6 corporations lmfao there’s no such thing as an honest journalist anymore.
The worst thing about load shedding, is that thieves use it as an advantage to steal from stores and homes while the cameras are off.
even traffic lights get stolen coz no electrical shock
@@expose_massive_banking_crimeand wirings. Lots of wiring
That's terrible.
That's not the worst thing by far lol
Peeps be hungry bro, and there are a bunch of Ama-para-para roaming around during load shedding
Yup, this is what happens when the rule is given over to people incapable of ruling over themselves....who are corrupt and incompetent.
Exactly
I can't believe they're incompetent! After all, they were full integrated into white society, given full access to top-notch educational systems, trained by the best companies, encouraged to connect with, befriend, marry their white compatriots, and generally were set up to thrive in an egalitarian state. (checks notes)....Oh right, I forgot about fucking apartheid. Apparently the "master race" - caught up in their 1690s slave plantation circle jerk - failed to comprehend that it was the mother fucking 19 fucking 90s and that the international community was about to wake them up from their separate water fountain wet dream and then what? In all of their "master race" brilliance they failed to think just 2 steps ahead and consider what was about to happen when their Hitler fantasy came crashing down.
so very true but even more sad is that these people are kept in power
they definitely werent ready to take the reins of SA
@@expose_massive_banking_crimethey were never going to be ready, they will never be able to run a decent country.
You know you're in a permanent state of despair when they actually create an app that tells you when you will lose your electricity.
We also have street signs that say "hijacking zone" and "pothole zone". Google it, these guys would rather warn you than fix the problem.
You know you're in a permanent state of despair when your government celebrates, promotes, and enforces Diversity above every other basic function. We're all SA soon.
Err....not exactly. We have the Urja mitra app in India that gives us updates about scheduled maintenance as well as unplanned outages. And although India does have some load shedding in peak summer months, it usually doesn't last more than an hour or two in the most power deficit states. The state I live in, we seldom see power cuts at all. And despite that I make use of the app whenever an unplanned cut happens due to some minor incident of some transformer going out or breaker tripping. Even though the power is restored within one hour. Point is, such apps are useful even when you seldom see power cuts like me.
Well, it's the Nelson Mandella effect. You've got a terrorist that bombed people to death, murders people in the street become president, which the western left totally cheered, you essentially go from one of the richest nations in the world to one of the poorest.
At least y’all are being warned. Ask your brothers in a certain West African country. There’s no warning, and power can be out for months 😆😆😆😆
The former CEO of Eskom had a very good interview on this overall topic. The amount of corruption within Eskom and ANC is wild and he supposedly almost lost his life over exposing the corruption.
You mean the guy who was POISONED for trying to stop corruption at the power utility, and how had to FLEE the country? (just like several OTHER whistleblowers)
It was not supposedly it was real two attempts on Andre De Ruiters Life. He was lucky others were not so lucky
Natural Born Criminals nothing too low for them.Will drive that country into the sewer to maintain there thieving empire
Did they even mention the anti-white employment laws?
Not supposedly. He WAS poisoned. Thats why he left this now shithole
I was born in SA and moved to Europe. I left with my skills and funds for my future. I will never go back. Its a black hole for everything good that a human being can be or do. I don't know why I never left sooner. It is too the best thing I ever did in my life. Cheers to us!
Stolen funds. Money that belongs to the natives
as a South African, let me summarize the country. First, we had white power, then we got black power and now, we have no power. currently watching this during load-shedding. thank God for generators.
It's a shame black power wasn't as ruthless and immoral as the white power era. Whenever I see Afrikaners crying about white genocide, it always turns out getting called a few nasty names in a dispute is less than one hundredth of the shit the apartheid regime used to do to the black population. 🤣
Its called 'Inverters' numb nuts get them you won't even know there is load shedding and you won't burn through fuel!
True story. Then they stole thousands of farms, and had the audacity to ask the White farmers who were kicked out without any compensation to teach the "new occupiers" how to farm. No deal.
My uncle and his children lived in South Africa. At the time apartheid was coming to an end, one of his children said that a majority government would not wreck the economy. His argument was that South Africa had had a chance to see how other economies on the continent had been destroyed after colonial rule had ended, and that South Africa would learn from that. It appears to me that he was not correct.
Ja right…
So, your cousin?
Your uncle did not understand Afro-marxism and Africanization.
Did he eventually realize it?
He definitely was wrong. South Africa is as tribal as the rest of Africa so that causes conflict too. But like the rest of Africa self enrichment is the name of the game 😢
Once corruption takes hold, it's almost impossible to fix anything in a country.
yeahh 'corruption' 🤡🤡🤡
That includes the USA
@@williamnelson9332the only time my power goes out is when there's a really bad storm

“Hunter is the smartest man I know”
The Africanization and Islamization of our civilization is the biggest tragedy for our people.
Sounds like apartheid wasn’t a bad thing.
News flash your on the AFRICAN continent.
The downfall of SA is because you let the 🧔🏿♂️ govern your country
Its not Africanization on Africans that is the problem but when Marxists/socialists get to power. In Kenya we also have a great battle with a highly Marxist/Socialist opposition that has been giving us problems for the past 40 years. Its not the black people but the ruling party ideology that puts aside pragmatism and fronts socialism.
Otherwise countries like Kenya, Rwanda, Botswana and Ghana are doing well despite not having a White minority rule for long like SA.
The root really is all from Marxism, which has brainwashed many in the Western Left now
disagreeing with a black woman is very dangerous. You are a brave man.
Was in the fortunate position to leave SA 5 years ago for Europe, grew up in SA. Went back for a wedding and could not believe the decline, the constant fear if being robbed, killed... I still have kids and grandkids in SA, I suffer constant sleepless nights, it was such a beautiful country, the ANC government has stolen the soul of SA...we had such potential...I'm working to get my kids out, German passport is our saving grace.
Send them to the darian gap and then United States like everyone else
But diversity is a strength
No one of at least normal intelligence was expecting anything else.
was always inevitable
Lucky you to have resources to leave SA and to help your family.
The same thing happened to Jamaica. When they got their independence they started expelling everyone that knew how to keep the lights on.
At least Jamaica has a tourist industry that's nearly impossible to kill.

True
As I'm watching this video in South Africa, I have loadshedding from 4pm to 6:30pm
I remember hearing stories about farmers who’d literally fled in the middle of the night with their whole families in fear for their life. They left their farms, the machinery and every thing needed to work the land but the crops rotted in the field because those same people that had been demanding the land refused to work it.
This is what happened to Zimbabwe. Without the whites running it, it falls apart
They should make new farmers go to agriculture school to see who actually wants to farm. Farming isn't just waiting to get paid off of crops
it was the white farmers who were killed by black africans because the government said the whites were the cause of all the hurt to the country. ironically once the white farmers were killed or fled, famine spread because no one knew how to work a farm
Was it refusal or just having no clue how to even begin to operate a farm?
I’m assuming a bit of both, but it’s phenomenal what a farmer must know and be proficient in to be successful, there seems to be a common belief that they’re simple people who’ve just inherited generational wealth and have it easy, which truly is not the case.
The truth is that a bitter pill. It’s a big pile s and those left have to take a bite
At this point the only reason my family has electricity is because somebody saw the writing on the wall and started a generator business. They're making a killing off of it these days.
United States is turning third world we are using generators here all the time😂
This is sadly and hypocritically ironic the Western colonizer is complaining about South Africa which they raped and destroyed

I spent 45 yrs in California and when I moved back to my country Lesotho in South Africa in 2017, I went to visit my brother in Johannesburg and I realized he had no power because of loadshedding. I was what is loadshedding, it is so frustrating. He is an attorney so he was able to by a home generator for his apartment, but for most people life is very difficult
Here in SoCal we call load shedding "brown-outs" and they happen in August, normally. Last summer Gov. Newsom just asked eveyone not to charge their electric cars or it would crash the grid. I work for a large electric utility here.

A South African myself, having lived here for 57 years, I relate 100% to everything you touched on - other than , it is actually far-far worse then outlined. South Africa is actually in a death spiral. There is absolutely nothing that you can think of that is not broken. ANC continue now to sow racial division with employment race quotas and now race quotas for water. You cannot make this sh%t up. Any idea the strain load shedding has on mortuaries, hospitals, clinics, water purification plants and many other essential services. Now the ANC want to nationalize the health sector. A good friend of mine had a hernia operation last week and had to recover lying on the hospital floor. All of this so the ANC can control the money, contracts and tenders - that all go to family and cadres. Really, really bad! Crime is at levels never seen before, like a war zone. For your own safety DO NOT travel here until and only if things turn around for the better.
You forgot the part where even some of the MORTUARIES didn't work as they should, or would even LOSE bodies. That is, if they even know who the person was, because sometimes people don't claim the body. :/
Praying this world stands up to these gov. Demons and put on the full armor of God.

“As long those running the country into the ground look like me, all is well.”
The farmers being slaughtered and having their land taken once the anc took over should have been a red flag really
Which farmers were murdered by the ANC? And i don't remember the ANC taking land back from white people. Infact the ANC has taken land from black people. Get your facts correct pipilitte
They gaslit us and said it wasn’t happening.
I have a friend in a game who lives in SA, and I can't deny that I worry about his safety a fair bit, and feel sad that he and his fellow South Africans have to deal with the load shedding and everything else because of the incompetence and insane levels of corruption in the country...

It’s China’s turn in the hurt locker.

I moved my family out of South Africa in 2006. At that time, my daughter was very young. We had financial constraints and faced family issues, which made it incredibly difficult to leave. However, I saw clear signs of the challenges ahead, and though I had moments of doubt, I persisted based on my beliefs. Today, I feel a great sense of vindication because my daughter is now 20 years old. It would be heartbreaking for me if we were still living in a broken country and still struggling financially 😞
it sucks here man trust me
I moved out of SA in 2019 after getting my degree, and besides for having family there, I have never looked back. South Africa had so much potential, some of the world's richest natural resources, and a population of incredibly dedicated and hard-working people, but they were driven out and the resources squandered. The country has been a cleptocracy for decades now, and run by criminals so incompetent they can't even keep their cash cow alive.

I used to work for the Department of Work and Pensions in the UK. I worked there for a year and a half and left around three years ago. In that time period and just in the small, 150,000 population town I live in, around a hundred white South Africans were in the process of applying for UK citizenship. Anyone who had the slightest chance of legitimately entering the UK was doing so. All of them without exception were people who were lucky enough to be able to afford to drop everything and go. Either people who had successful businesses, or high-end skills such as computer programmers. Skills and businesses that will be sorely missed by South Africa. Three years down the line I know many of them personally and they all say that RSA is an irredeemable wreck. It is totally corrupt. Incredibly violent with a third-world Police force. Responsible jobs are being given to incompetent people. Nothing ever gets done. South Africa is returning to its sub-Saharan roots it seems. Welcome to South Africa, the new Congo.
The white South Africans should just fly to Venezuela and cross the Mexican border. Speak Spanish or something temporarily then get caught and released into the interior of the United States where you’ll be an educated English speaking person who might be able to find a decent enough job 🤷♂️
It is happening with the black South Africans as well who can afford to/have marketable skills too. It is just a much higher percentage of the White population has the means so it is much clearer in that racial group. The brain (and capital they take with them) drain is a major part of the nation's problems.
My relatives had an electrical contracting business that did industrial work. They saw the writing on the wall & were able to get out before it got bad.

It's a shame as I loved SA when I was a nipper. Now I'm very glad to be in country that's going to war..again..and its raining, again! But its better than facing that everyday. I remember the dark days under a certain government where power was off every night. My mother would light candles and we'd sit by the fire place, had to cook in a pot without an oven if it was late. Go through that, it definitely helps one appreciate the smaller things we take for granted everyday. Your very right sir! You've earned a new subscriber.

Few years ago, I had the crazy idea to open a Joburg company as a Swiss. After one year I gave up due to bureaucracy, black empowerment, crime, having always large capital blocked in VAT and constant, mutual racism. The ANC, a combination of free loaders, corrupt officials and total incompetence. I came with the intention to create something good and jobs, but left totally frustrated and without hope for that beautiful country.
Black empowerment? Mutual racism? Okay weirdo.
mutual racism?
Good decision. You saved your life
And hard earned money.....
I'm not convinced of 'mutual' racism, only some groups are willing to overcome the past whilst the majority seems to thrive in it.
Come to Australia, you are welcome to invest here
Also, you forgot to mention that people are just dismantling the power lines and other infrastructure, during scheduled loadshedding when they know the lines aren't hot, and selling them as scrap.
This
At least then there will be no more loadshedding. No more of anything really..
now you'll never see them coming

Wow , I’m a contractor & once had to keep a school computers up & running during a shutdown to replace the service. The computers were a hub to 14 other schools & could not be shutdown. I utilized a 50 KW generator & in a week used $1000 worth of diesel to keep it going. That would not have kept a restaurant up which makes me wonder how much it would take

Agreed. They really have no excuse as a country. Botswana and Namibia are next to them. Both have less land and resources than SA but both are among the most politically stable, economically well managed, less corrupt, and have great infrastructure. South Africa is a joke of a country and most of us in Africa are genuinely ashamed for them because of their wasted potential.
You got your wish. Whites wanted New SA to fail. Ever since whites lost power to blacks they've been bad mouthing SA. Whites wanted to tell the world that apartheid wasn't so bad.

I am sorry for these people. Their government fell into a trap fuelled by hatred and ignorance. If they could have set aside their feelings and moved with reason and logic, they might have made the leap from apartheid, to a free state, using "managers" and engineers from say, India, or Egypt or any other country where they have folks educated and trained to run their facilities. As they educated themselves, they would have phased out foreign help. I wonder that there might not have been many Americans to fill these roles. But they never understood that these things require maintenance, updating, educated employees...plans to handle loss of power when the reservoirs go dry (where possible). This makes me so sad for the people who waited centuries for autonomy, and then blew the opportunity with a toxic environment of governmental corruption. We have corruption too, lots of it. But an entire country's population is being affected. The ANC certainly does not sound "democratic." I wish South Africa the best while enduring this dangerous situation. Never mind the farmers being overrun and murdered, because, I guess, they are/were white. So much hatred will eat you up and poison your own children...I wish their people the best.
We also have taxi murders and the rate is 100 times more than farm murders. We have about 18000 murders per year, 98% of those killed are black people. Get your facts and statistics correct

I work with some beautiful SA nurses here in Ireland, black as night it’s self and lovely in every way. Their first born children remained in SA due to the high cost of raising children, but three different families of the teenagers completed secondary school here (15-18yrs) and hated it. Upon completion of school, the kids all wanted to return, me thinking they grew up with grandparents/ friends in SA was the primary reason for returning. They were returning to professional jobs with zero experience or training, I asked how would this be possible. They honestly said, probably some bore will be kicked out of the job( I didn’t know what a bore was, white person) and hire them. Two of the kids returned to Ireland in their mid 20’s, because the rand collapsing, they couldn’t hold down a job, turn out just outsourcing your work is not work, in the end all they could get was minimum wage jobs, which they refused to do, so returned to SA, to get into “senior” posts. It’s almost like the jobs are made up, like if you work in IT you just have to be less shit than the last person and you got the job.

on the topic of crime, as you've said, the crime has escalated a lot since loadshedding started because of the unemployment rate. however, the crime has also escalated because loadshedding makes the crimes easier to commit. my mother was murdered in 2020 during loadshedding in the very early hours of the morning and because all the cameras were out, and the security system was offline, there was nothing to work with. because her house was set on fire, the police basically ruled it out as accidental because maybe it was a "candle", completely ignoring the petrol (gas) streaks on the ground leading to the house and a few witnesses admitting to seeing a suspicious vehicle around the area at the time.
because my mother was burnt so badly, nobody could visually identify her- a DNA sample was taken and a few months later, I was told the police had "lost" the DNA. it seems like an absolute sick joke, but this really happened. there have been no answers and no arrests, it's been swept under the rug with all the other murders that happen on a daily basis in this awful country.
I met a fragile old lady at the shops recently, whose face was black and blue. I didn't ask what had happened, but she was sure to tell me because maybe she felt insecure about it, but it turns out this old lady and her husband had their home broken into during a powercut, the young man had a bat-like weapon with (nails?) or some sharp objects drilled in and begun hitting at her husband- she was attacked as well, but not as brutally. they both survived, but the husband was and apparently would be in hospital for a very long time due to his injuries, and it was absolutely shocking hearing this, especially knowing it happened right down the road from me, and I live in an area that is known to be the "safest" around. questionable, because right down the road from me, there have been reports of young girls like myself being kidnapped and held hostage in Nigerian apartments and sold for explicit work.
I have been unemployed for years now, my depression has and is still destroying me. I have had severe anxiety since the death of my mother, and I feel really on edge every time there's a powercut at night time. I have many nightmares on myself and the people I love being attacked and killed brutally.

Because of racial equality laws passed by the ANC , Eskom couldn't employ qualified engineers due to racial quotas, so electrical infrastructure was plagued with scrappers and theft of equipment. Sooner or later, the problem of theft got so severe and so expensive, they just stopped replacing stolen goods and let the infrastructure go into a state of decay.

Considering the almost continual state of emergency that it always appear to be in regarding almost EVERYTHING under the sun, that's not untrue.
Also, it would help when the government ACKNOWLEDGES something is a crisis, and not just a "challenge". It doesn't really help them from a public perspective when they always try to downplay serious issues due to their lack (or ability) to find sustainable solutions to problems.

Life was bad then, it has worsened hugely. She would never return. After her parents deaths, the 22,000 shares held by the bank, disappeared.

Easy, as stated in the video… corruption. Instead of using private companies with the skilled engineers, they give the government contracts to their family members private companies. The only way to fix this is to vote the ANC out of office. The problem is that they will ensure winning with voter fraud when needed. This brings us to the last solution, war against the government, which is something no one wants and is only seen as the very last option. I think the ANC corruptors don’t even care about that, as long as they can make themselves rich in the short run, they’ll keep on running the country into the ground. Hard times are on the horizon.
