Chinese national arrested for possession of Rhino horn

Chinese foreign national nabbed at OR Tambo International Airport for possession of Rhino horn and ornaments made of rhino horn with an estimated street value of 1.5 million rand.

The shipment was en-route from Mozambique to Hong Kong. 

Last yeast alone an estimated 1,200 rhinos was poached in South Africa, many from the Kruger National Park which is on the border of Mozambique. Most of the poachers come into the area from Mozambique.

South Africa is home to approx 80 percent of the worlds Rhino population.

Rhino poaching is an evil action carried out on animals for one reason only and that is financial gain. To expose the corruption behind this evil deed, the media must promote public awareness of these dreadful deeds. The exposing of the corruption will probably save the Rhino who are almost debilitated.

The Black Rhino is endangered, and the white rhinoceros is closely following with complete eradication.

Rhino horn is a profitable product in the Asian countries and used for medication to treat various ailments. It is also regarded as a status symbol among the wealthy. China is currently the largest consumer of rhino horn and various illegal methods continue to spark controversy around the world.
In Zimbabwe, the rhino are almost nonexistent and now South African rhino is on the verge of becoming extinct.

Malema – EFF actions must benefit African children not white privilege VIDEO

What would we do without Malema, he said, “Why should we be the ones that promote white arrogance and privilege? I am not fighting for white people or fighting against them. Everything the EFF does must benefit the African child.”

It is noble of the Economic Freedom Fighter (EFF) leader to have intentions of uplifting, educating and providing for the “African Child”, but does this not insinuate division. What is the difference, children are children. Malema should understand that children irrespective of race, creed or color are not responsible for the history of South Africa. Malema is and will always remain a revolutionary leader who will continue to drive a wedge between the diverse races across the country.

Malema is still obsessed about “white privilege” yet fails to realize that white people do not have any privilege today. Malema should take a tour of the “white squatter camps”, check how many “white people” are excluded from the job market and not feel threatened by less than four million citizens.
