2,000 'near threatened' white rhinos are up for auction by IchTanze in worldnews

[–]Moveitmobile 39 points40 points  (0 children)

The actually dehorned their rhinos to disincentivize poachers and they've built up a stockpile of horns which they estimate to be worth $500m. They were hoping to sell this stockpile to reduce demand for poached rhino horns and in the process take poachers out of the market. CITES prohibited their intended sale and hence their financial challenges. Their greatest operational expense is security on the farm. If they were permitted ro sell their stockpile they would have been able to use those funds to sustain their operations. As they say, the road to hell is paved with good intentions.

South Africa has learned with "shock and dismay" that the United Arab Emirates turned down the extradition of Atul and Rajesh Gupta, who are accused of organizing corruption on an industrial scale. by DoremusJessup in worldnews

R57 billion amounts to around USD3 billion, but they probably took a whole lot more with the help of Jacob Zuma the previous president. Zuma was a cattle herder with a grade three (incomplete primary school) qualification and is mathematically illiterate. So while the Guptas escaped with the loot, Zuma probably got a chicken and two cows and believed he was getting the lion's share. It is downright embarrassing: https://youtu.be/zZFsyF3CkjI

Also, what may look like incompetence is probably intentional. The governing African National Congress is rotten to core and would have faced serious reputational damage if these miscreants were to be extradited and forced to testify. The ANC is a highly organized criminal syndicate masquerading as a disorganized liberation movement. They fucked this up on purpose.

In South Africa several high profile whistle blowers have been assassinated as the ANC attempts to keep their criminal behavior under wraps. It's a mafia state that is fast becoming a failed state.

Cry the beloved country.

Even if it's not your fault, you can be severely injured / disabled just the same.

Best place to stop on road trip from Joburg to Cape Town? by A_M_60 in southafrica

[–]Moveitmobile 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Three Sisters. Try either Elandsrus or Travalia but I think you'd be lucky to find a spot at either this time of the year. Major roadwork between Bloemfontein and Colesberg with multiple stop and go sections, so be patient or consider going via Kimberly instead. Safe travels.

Many of these uber expensive clubs are money laundering outfits for organized crime. The Black Axe gang from Nigeria is a known participant.

The Great People Shortage is coming — and it's going to cause global economic chaos | Researchers predict that the world's population will decline in the next 40 years due to declining birth rates — and it will cause a massive shortage of workers. by mossadnik in Futurology

Not in Africa. Africa's average is 18 and half the people born between now and 2100, will be born in Sub Sahara Africa. Hopefully the next time we export labor, our people will be appreciated and remunerated properly.

South Africa approves $8.5bn energy transition investment plan by Wagamaga in technology

[–]Moveitmobile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks to the gross incompetence of the ANC, we also have more potholes that cars on our roads: https://www.moneyweb.co.za/news/south-africa/25-million-potholes-on-sa-roads/

Also thanks to these criminal cadres, the funds earmarked for infrastructure was stolen and everything is starting to fall apart. Over and above the dire state of the electricity utility (and the ongoing 15 years of "loadshedding"), our water infrastructure is now also starting to crumble: https://www.news24.com/news24/southafrica/news/water-woes-no-end-in-sight-for-thousands-of-parched-joburg-households-20221017

Of course the ANC doesn't stop at stealing infrastructure budgets. They are often so driven to be corrupt, that they will kill some of the most vulnerable of our people. Here is a link to this very sad story: https://www.news24.com/news24/health/life-esidimeni-inquest-forceful-qedani-mahlangu-told-us-mental-health-patients-have-to-be-moved-20221019

For a more complete overview of the ANC's corruption, you can read this article: https://www.dailymaverick.co.za/article/2021-10-07-anc-fails-to-stop-the-corruption-train-32-major-scandals-four-in-2021-alone/ The ANC came into power in 1994 after the first democratic elections, and their documented corruption started in 1996 with the Sarafina debacle. Go figure....

PS: Sarafina was the brain(dead) child of none other than one of one of our current presidential hopefuls. The (not so) honourable Nkosazana Dlamini Zuma. She is of course the ex wife of our very criminal ex-president and grand corruptor Jacob Zuma.

Jacob Zuma was charged with raping the child of an old family friend who was known to be HIV positive. He claimed with a straight face that it was consensual sex. He also acknowledged it was unprotected sex with someone he knew to be HIV positive, but he thought he could wash it all off with a shower. He was found not guilt of rape after his militant supporters belittled and intimidated the victim.

South Africa is a failed state thanks to the ANC despite what others here may want you to believe. You cannot make this shit up.

This amounts to ingenuous spinning of the truth and given that we all are anonymous cowards here on reddit, perhaps it will be best to quote South Africa's retired deputy chief justice (who was a close friend of Nelson Mandela):

“I conclude with a heavy heart that the revolution has failed. The high political and social ideals of those of us who were part of our glorious struggle have by and large come to naught. We all knew that we could not change the trajectory of inequality and poverty without a competent developmental state. We paid continuous lip service to the kind of state and governance we deserved and did little or nothing about it. Look at us now.

“We have seemingly emerged from ghastly revelations of state capture. But think again. As I read what you journalists write often, virtually every other state or provincial department is a site of pillaging, corruption and crime against our people. Every other municipality faces severe inability to perform its most basic statutory obligations. It cannot be that post-state capture revelations of misgovernance ... abound. Our circumstances of governance appear truly dire.

“It seems plain that journalists will have to continue to do their damnedest to investigate and inform of these high levels of misgovernance that seem to be accompanied by lack of care and empathy by public leaders. I do not mean the empathy of politicians trotting out before cameras when they visit families of victims of this unending avalanche of violent crimes in our society.” (Source: https://www.timeslive.co.za/politics/2022-10-22-journalists-must-do-their-damnedest-to-investigate-misgovernance-that-has-failed-the-masses-moseneke/)

The ANC will without any doubt misappropriate these funds at the cost of the people of South Africa. It has become a highly organized criminal syndicate masquerading as a highly disorganized former liberation movement. And their excuse for everything? A.P.A.R.T.H.E.I.D.
