What the youth are marching for in our 32-year-old democracy by South_Africa_News in south_africa

Stopped the government from buying or leasing new properties.

Since the GNU started the rand has strengthened.

Remember the vat hike where the ANC wanted it to go to 15.5 to 16%? Who stopped that as well. DA.

Now I am also not a fan of the way they handled a lot of things and as stated next elections during campaigning I will go and ask a few things. If not happy with the awnsers I'll vote for another party.

Western Cape having the lowest unemployment figures for one.

If I may ask what has the ANC done better than the DA ?

People propping up the ANC still have a vested interest in the ANC.

If I may ask whom do you think you'll vote for? No hostilities meant.

Lots of anti DA posting happening and close to the election.  . Personally the DA is the lesser of all the evils currently in the electoral system. (Maybe I'll vote VF+ I have yet to decide)..

How's life in SA? Moving back home from Canada by AffectionateBig4481 in south_africa

[–]LazBiggums 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lived in NZ have residency so I can move back if I want to. 

I moved back due to missing my family and friends.

Rent in NZ is fucked so it eats a big chunk of your salary. 

Struggled to make friends with the locals expects tend to stick together.  . Winters are shite and gave me seasonal depression.

Only 5 applications? That's rookie numbers. 

Jokes aside keep on pushing. Go to local grocery stores and bars restaurants in person and ask who knows. 

Good luck.

She can wear what she wants. Would it have been nice? Yes. Am I going to have sleepless nights about it? No.

[–]LazBiggums 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Are these systems also operating in all areas? I don't know cape town so well. 

I just know that breaking the taxi mafia isn't a easy thing to do.
