    Thank you all for engaging in this discussion. I want to address the topic of xenophobia since many South Africans feel triggered by my assessment.
    Firstly, born and raised in Germany, I see many similarities regarding xenophobia between both countries. However, in Germany, as in South Africa, the issue isn’t the migrants themselves, but the mismanagement of resources and the failure of the government to address these problems. What’s troubling is that rather than holding the government accountable, people often attack the weakest and most vulnerable-the migrants. This is plain wrong!!!
    Let me also clarify that I am not excusing illegal immigration or the breaking of laws. However, it’s important to recognize that in both Germany and South Africa, the legal immigration processes are deeply flawed. Many people who migrate do so out of desperation, and the reality is that the systems in place make it nearly impossible for them to follow the legal route. This is something we should hold the government accountable for, not the migrants who are simply trying to find a better life.
    What is most concerning is how people respond to illegal immigration. This is where human rights come into play. In any society, the way you handle challenges speaks to your values and respect for humanity. Violent attacks, burning shops down, and killing migrant workers show a complete disregard for basic human rights. Whether someone is documented or not, they deserve to be treated with dignity.
    Regarding Chidimma, bullying a 23-year-old woman online for crimes she did not commit goes against our shared values of respect and humanity. Period!
    Lastly, I understand that there are deep concerns in South Africa, and I empathize with the frustration over unemployment and lack of resources. But attacking migrants-whether they are legal or undocumented-is not the solution. It’s about how we treat people in the most difficult situations that truly reflects the values of a nation. South Africa has a long history of fighting for human rights, and we should never lose sight of that.

      For fear of becoming a troll, this will be my last comment! Just wanna say we will not apologise for defending the future of our children. I don’t care so much about documented or not though those who do are correct. What I care about is the livelihood of my family and those around me. Yes we have a problem of corruption and bribery in our government and law enforcement and if you know something about us is that we take action against those South Africans as well “there are protests every week in South Africa fighting against that. So in the same light we cannot allow others to do wrong because they are foreigners!!! How do you respect someone human right who does not respect your human rights?
      My stance which will remain unchanged whether I’m called xenophobic or not is:
      -If you sell drugs to my children and I report it and nothing happens to you! I will do whatever is in my power to protect my children (If you are a parent you know what I mean)
      - If you sell toxic and expired foods to my children and I report and nothing happens to you! I will burn down your store.
      If you cannot comprehend these two points above, then maybe you should choose another country to stay because you be disappointed. We will not stop defending our livelihoods period.
      There are still thousands of Ethiopians owning stores here is South Africa (I buy from one everyday) and we live gracefully with them because they do nothing wrong. But all the bad elements we will root them.
      And you know in all fairness South Africa is a very kind place to immigrants, our laws allow opportunities to everyone immigrants or not. In fact it is one of the most welcoming places in Africa that is the reason why even with the bad publicity those who know South Africa as yourself do not want to leave as compared to the experiences in other African countries. Ethiopia for example: I have been to Addis and Lalibela in 2019 and in the 7 days I was there, I have never even seen ONE SHOP owned by a foreign national🤷🏾‍♂️ that in itself says a lot about how Ethiopian laws are designed accommodate foreigners🤔
      I do understand why your view of South Africa on this topic is a little harsh! It is obviously tainted by your Nigerian influence. Hence you refuse to acknowledge that there was illegal activity with Chidima’s saga therefore she should not be allowed to represent us.
      Her parents failed her, NOT South Africans

      Dear Mrs Plan B,
      Thank you for the informative video on South Africa and Kenya. Your analysis was insightful, but you briefly touched on a sensitive issue: xenophobia, which has now sparked a heated debate in your comment section.
      I respect your attempt to clarify your perspective, but comparing Germany's migrant challenges to South Africa’s is somewhat misplaced. I won’t delve into the nuanced differences between xenophobia in Germany and South Africa, but I will say this: migration in South Africa has evolved into an organised syndicate, supported not just by governments but also by corporate interests, as well as wealthy and middle-class South Africans through the demand for cheap labor. An incompetent government certainly exacerbates this crisis, but it doesn’t change the reality that migration is a ticking time bomb here.
      The issue with us, so-called "clever blacks," is assuming that impoverished township communities, who bear the brunt of this crisis, have the luxury to intellectualise what is, for them, a life-or-death situation.
      I agree with you on the importance of upholding basic human rights. Violence is never the answer, but try telling that to someone who is living in extreme poverty, with their only hope being young adults reliant on government institutions like public hospitals, clinics, schools, and welfare grants. Parents are watching their children grapple with drug addiction (often linked to foreign nationals) and alcohol abuse as a means of coping with the lack of opportunities.
      Given all this, it's clear that the migrant issue in Germany is not comparable to the one in South Africa. In my view, the German situation is more cultural, whereas ours is deeply tied to economic, political, and organized criminal syndicates funded by foreign governments.
      I could go on, but perhaps you should consider hosting a live-stream discussion on RUclips. I'd be happy to participate and even help organize it, so you can hear more about the deeper issues facing South Africans.
      Once again, I fully support respecting basic human rights. We must find a peaceful way to address this issue. I believe South Africans are, by nature, peaceful people, but I cannot tell someone in desperation how to behave when their survival is at stake. Instincts take over when one is pushed to the limit. Look at Palentine and Isreal, including the Russia and Ukrain. You cannot tell me that these people just woke up and went to war, something triggered them and for whatever reasons, they decided to kill and die for what they believe in. It is sad and completely unacceptable, but only an ideal world.

    I agree with many of the answers and for you it obviously makes much more economic and business sense to settle in ZA especially in regards to low cost start-ups, airfare and school fees.. I also agree that South Africa has better road infra but Kenya doesn't only border lawless Somalia, South Sudan and your country Ethiopia. The road to Ethiopia is actually excellent and makes for epic journeys through Marsabit and Moyale. Road trips to Tanzania and also Uganda are super. Many Kenyans, over 90%, feel more connection to the proper EAC neighbours - Uganda, Tanzania and Rwanda and feel less inclined to travel or connect to the first three countries I mentioned. Many Kenyans like Ethiopia from far though largely due to its imperial history and PanAfricanist stand of HIM Haile Selassie. However, many don't know or understand Ethio's recent politics - post 1974.

    Interesting video. I agree that housing options are better and more affordable in SA. Kenya has so much work to do. As for the xenophobia issue, what non-south africans need to realise is, there was an influx of Africans from other countries, too much and it wasn't well managed. Immigration should be properly managed to avoid too many foreigners moving in. That's what brings about xenophobic attitudes, especially when locals feel like their opportunities are being taken from them. Again, immigration isn't the problem, but rather improperly managed immigration.

    Xenophobia in South Africa does not stem from Apartheid. South Africans are very welcoming to everyone, until that welcome is taken advantage of.
    Migrants from Kenya, Ghana, African American, UK diaspora, Eswatini, Malawi and Botswana, almost never present South African citizens with problems, thus, never have angst directed at them.
    Other migrants have unfortunately planted a seed of destruction and leaves South Africans with a conundrum they aren't prepared to resolve, on which are the law abiding expats. One western African country has its citizens deported from all over the world, isn't that xenophobia?
    What is sad is some even insult South Africans by claiming that 'they are weak and lazy', as if the country they migrated to just appeared out of thin air. This country was built with hardships some migrsnts WILL NEVER understand. Our brothers and sisters paid the ultimate price to get us to keep this South Africa that expats from around the world seek.
    These organisations you refer to are less than 5 years old, are made up of a disgruntled minority and DO NOT speak for the rest of the people of colour. To use these groups in an argument is tantamount to propaganda, because conversely there are a plethora of organisations that fight for the rights of asylum seekers and defenseless migrants, but are not mentioned.
    There will never be a diaspora unity that will be based on a lack of respect. Pan Africanism will never be a reality if we do not call each other out for bad deeds. If highly successful Africans leave their homelands to work in westernized countries, those homelands will remain in the third world.

    I love your channel, you are objective and intentionally educating with your material. Keep this good work up.
    Xenophobia in South African surely has it's roots in our divided past.
    However, the black population in South Africa is known for their hospitality and Ubuntu (I am because you are)spirit. When the apartheid ended, black people took government and opened the country, relaxed the restrictions, developed the country, and championed human rights. We have always been so welcoming to migrant worker's, hence the diversity and influx of everybody from around the world choosing to come to the country to experience and make a better living. Most foreigners find it easier to support their countries from wealth and living wages generated here in SA.
    Unfortunately some foreigners have since taken advantage of this in a bad way by exploiting, disrespecting, abuse and spitting in the face of the host, and hence foreigners from specific groups have become synonymous with such bad wrap. And I think this is the fuel for this Xenophobia. This is further fueled by the high level of unemployment driven by poor policy execution where employers cut corners and exploit the work force, hire foreigners for their cheaper wage acceptance, etc.
    The chidimma Vanessa case is one where one really needs all facts before using that example. There is a certain narrative and association with fraud and all other sorts of exploitation with some people from Nigeria irrespective of where they are in the world. Most countries are known to have had enough with them...soo the narrative goes. Unfortunately for Vanessa, it was about the legitimacy, fraud and exploitation that brought about the saga, not that she had her roots traced from outside the country. If the allegations are true about her parent's identity theft case, and the ordeal the victims suffered, the spot light and empathy should be on the more legitimate victims, and not just Vanessa(she can blame her parents for that).
    South Africans are very intellectual people who understand their rights. It's unfortunate that in any country you do find good and bad apples, But traditionally and generally, South African are welcoming and inclusive, hence the rainbow 🌈 nation.
    You will not find a South African in a foreign country who does not live respectfully with the host.

    If people from other countries coming not in their thousands but millions into 1 country and arent there legally and cant be employed legally due to not having the right right documentation then large portions of them will resort to crime. Whilst in the same time we have no way to track them in our system.
    Seeing as though you're going to come here how would you feel if a crime was committed against you or your family and we have no ways of tracking the perpetrators because their info isnt in our systems?
    Then as you say they cracking dowm on illegal immigrants in work places. The other side of this coin is that many companys dont want to pay the minimum wage to South Africans and then basically use slave labor and pay them peanuts without observing labor laws.
    All in all we really need to clean up our country and put systems in place so that SA can be better for all.

For example, we live with Ethiopians in my village, deep in rural areas, and they speak our language fluently. They are part of the community. All I can say is anyone who wants to come to South Africa, can come LEGALLY like in any other country.

    12:40 South Africans are not xenophobic. They just dislike illegal immigration. There are around 5 million illegal immigrants in South Africa, that’s almost 10% of the total population of the country. The highest in Africa, I don’t think any country can accept that. It’s not that SA is anti immigrants, but it most certainly is anti illegal immigrants. Also, Chidima’s mother stole someone’s identity… that’s illegal, her being born in SA does not automatically afford her citizenship. In RSA law, you do not obtain citizenship by birth, but only by one or both of your parents being South African citizens. Neither of her parents were citizens.

    I really hate the Air Bnb business in SA specifically in capetown , foreigners shouldn't be allowed to buy property for RENTING purposes as it chases locals out and makes it expensive due to the foreigners from europe/america charging prices equivalent to their currencies .

    Great Video, but i actually dont think you should have touched on xenophobia issue, its way complex than u actually think. South Africans are welcoming, warm & loving people ....if i were you, i'd watch other Africans video who migrated in SA and see their take on SA & people.

    A well balanced analysis. I am a citizen of both countries. I live in Cape Town but am always in Kenya for my other family there. I totally agree with your analysis. On the xenophobia thing, most South Africans love people from other countries. It is not everywhere there are xenophobic attacks. And where they occur, they are normally instigated by a few politicians who use populist rethorics the young, unemployed ior not so well educated ones to gain votes. I remember here in Cape Town, when those who wanted to bring the dudula thing, the taxi (matatu) drivers, guided their businesses and refused to let it happen here. For their businesses, they need passengers, doesn't matter where they come from. Also South Africans who have properties rent out to both SAns and foreigners. They don't want anyone to interfere with the peace which will affect their income. I usually go to a place called Belleville on the outskirts of Cape Town to buy vegetables, sweet potatoes, arrow roots, yam. Here, you find both South Africans and foreigners trading together selling different types of fruit and veggies alongside each other . The place is full of Somali shops as well as locally owned shops. The provincial govt tries to ensure that people co - exist, people are enlightened and they know the value of each other. And remember, SA is a big country and there big expectations from many countries on her, so if there is a flare of xenophobia somewhere, it makes a major news on international media. Just my opinion

      would like to hear what you have to say about Kenya in comparison to ZA. For the vlogger, I think Cape Town and Jhb check most of her needs and agrees with her soul which is the most important thing when looking to move to a new land. Mdleleni, as a Kenyan, I would be happy to hear what you think of Nairobi and Kenya in general and where its punching above weight or trailing ZA. Cheers!

      @franmdleleni6520 День назад

      @@DumeJeusi for me where Kenya punches above the line is the dissemination of important information to the public. This is done so well and the public is always educated and informed . Eg various information platforms are used to reach targetted demographic eg if it is matters of health and the govt wants to pass info like info on where to go for vital health check ups for lifestyle diseases eg BP, diabetes, they use radios, TV stations, Billboards etc. Radio ant TV stations usually invite doctors or experts in health to explain to the populace different issues re health eg causes of diseases, what to eat, different types of foods and what a person should do and where to go if in need etc. Another example is like when the prepaid electricity meters software needed to be updated recently, there was repeat messages on radios reminding people what to expect, and how to update their software etc. Here, we updated our software last year or so but the info was mainly sent on whatsapp groups, not much info on radios, Tvs. And where SA punches above the line is the way private medical places are efficiently structured. If I want to see my doctor, I phone, get appointment and when I go, they have my file ready and I see my doc. In Kenya, you just go, don't need to book an appointment, sit, wait for long etc. A doctor can be somewhere far and they will not tell you so. You wait. Which wastes your time. It is like private docs there care more of making money instead of patients' rights and time. This can't happen here. That is my take.

    Excellent and informative video.

In SA retirement visa is for 4 years and longer, with minimal cost for renewal makes it very appealing to us. Also housing seems to be much more affordable in SA. Although Kenya would be our preferred place to live, the visa situation is not affordable. Thank you.
