South Africa Living in Cuckoo Land - the book

Finally, the book is published on Amazon. A collection of riveting articles about South Africa. I am posting the introduction and first chapter of the book. Thank you for your support.

INTRODUCTION

South Africa a land of golden opportunities and a land of conflicting situations. Throughout history, South Africa has been a land of diverse cultures, habits and traumatic times. From Colonial rule to a Union, and onto an independent state, a barren land transformed into a magnificent country. Development and infrastructure professed to be the best. A country rich in mineral resources and abundant wealth. Rejection, apathy and suppression of human rights. Terrorists, murders and protests for freedom of the majority. From apartheid to democracy a moment of reflection and creation of a rainbow nation. 1994 the year when a new constitution was born and freedom for all the people of South Africa, equal rights, and equal opportunities. A dream come true for many but the hope and desire to live a stable life was shattered by greed, corruption, and crime. The influential leaders grasped the opportunity to take a working infrastructure, a sound economy and virtually destroy the fundamental human rights of South African citizens.

The inhuman practices of tribalism continue in the modern world. Xenophobia attacks and outright disrespect for humans is a regular occurrence today. The high rise of crime, corruption and fraud have turned a once thriving country into the murder capital of the world. The minority groups within the country are forced into poverty, rejected in public service and blamed for the current problems of today. Young activists, continue to protest and the government blames all the failings on Apartheid.
This book is about the corruption, the greed, the murders and white genocide happening in South Africa. 
Chapter 1
Apartheid was introduced into the South African culture in 1948 and demolished in 1994. Under apartheid racial divisions, created problems and the majority of South African suffered. The apartheid government continued to build a significant infrastructure and generates economic stability during this time. To relieve the pain of segregation among race groups, the government established townships and provided housing, education, medical and social structures. This did not absolve apartheid and kept segregation of race groups apart.  Apartheid did not stop the terrorist groups from fighting for freedom. Military training in communist countries and illegal weapons gave the terrorists groups the opportunity to fight for freedom. The main target of the terrorists were to bomb public places, select soft targets, women and children. Innocent people died, and border wars continued to expand while the Afrikaner government tried to keep the white people safe. The world called the terrorists ‘FREEDOM FIGHTERS’ and placed sanctions on South Africa. Negotiations with the African National Congress (ANC) terrorist group began and a new constitution was written to ensure ALL people will have freedom, liberty and peace.

South Africa is a majestically ever-changing land of opportunities, diverse cultures and breathtakingly beautiful, scenic landscapes. South Africa is an egalitarian rainbow nation with the most official languages in the world dominated by the communication and conflict among the different ethnic groups. English, Afrikaans, Zulu, Xhosa, Sesotho, Setswana, Sepedi, Xitsonga, siSwati, isiNdebele, and Tshivenda are the official languages, and the history and culture of each ethnic group is unique to the different people of the land.

The nationality of South African people is described as white, black, Zulu or Afrikaans people. The populace of this country experience difficulty in referring to themselves as South Africans. The identification of people is never an ordinary South African; it is extended by Indian, Colored, Zulu, Xhosa or Black.

There is no clear signal if South Africa will become a united with one cohesive people. South Africa is now a democratic country offering freedom for all its citizens with equal opportunities. Yet the constant struggle to recognize this freedom is a raging problem for people who continue to blame the past history and remain unforgiving within different ethnic groups.
South Africa needs strong governance and is lacking the ability to manage and administer the wealth to its people in the form of service deliveries, housing, and job creation. During the apartheid years, the taxpayers were potentially the biggest collection of state income and the use of funds remained evident among the people. Citizens received appropriate education; housing and social services were top class. Even though the majority of blacks at that time, who did not have the right to move around, received a fair portion of the public services, hospitals, schools and so forth were available to all.

The democracy allowed all South Africans the opportunity to freedom and access to all shared facilities of the past. Over the last twenty years, these services have declined into a dreadful state and have become more of a hindrance than a help. The taxpayers’ money is not working for the people, and the squandering of public funds is potentially the biggest threat to the security of the country.
Economically the only solution for the country is to establish a proper competent government is placed into power. A government that will work for the people, improve the gap of poverty, and provide job creation, thereby ensuring a reasonably decent life for all. Removing the damning structures of ethnic conflict, allowing talented, experienced, and skilled people to fill posts irrespective of their race, culture or religion.

Blaming apartheid for the current problems is not only unfair; it is an exhibition of weakness by the current government. Apartheid was not acceptable and admittedly a system that should never have been implemented

The last twenty years have given the country an opportunity for improvement, development, and social equality. This has not happened, and apartheid cannot be blamed for the current failures. There are social equality opportunities for every South African, and it is the individual who must make the change. The government does not promote equality and continues to blame apartheid for any problem they cannot control. The question that needs to be answered is what did the ANC party know about democracy. Is democracy only the right to vote, or does democratic government, place the people at the heart of their leadership. Not so in South Africa, while the ANC grow stronger toward a socialist government, the pillars of democracy slowly fall.

South Africa Power Starts to Corrupt



South Africa
In South Africa, the ruling African National Party (ANC) competes for power and money, and has lost sight of the purpose of democratic governance. Ordinary members lose sight of the real objective and place leaders on pedestals. Every political party is useful to the system, but useless to the people. In politics, numbers do count and vote-rigging and buying is the dominant method of grabbing power.
South Africa no longer needs a leader who giggles, sings and dances to the masses while continuing to corrupt the system. It is seriously time for a new leader who is not eager for self-enrichment and is an active negotiator. Deputy President Cyril Ramaphosa has a history of resolving conflicts, yet the mistrust and deficit he has created has rendered Ramaphosa a lame duck, and a person to jump to the whims of the old ANC exiled members. Ramaphosa is a person that will follow the wind in whichever way needed to advance his own self-interest, and is like a chameleon – one moment a socialist; next a ruthless capitalist or a populist Marxist.
Whatever vision Ramaphosa has for the ANC and South Africa, there will be contention and attempts to fill the coffers with money. In doing so, the deputy president will secure the highest position in the land, and appease the powerful people in the ANC who have a vested interest in the prevailing culture. There is no need for a transformational president who might upset the high political stakes the ANC have implemented.
The problem of the ANC government goes back to the policies whereby the liberation movement sought to address the question of apartheid without also finding a way to deal with capitalism and the exploitation of cheap black labor. Today, the manipulation of the poor remains a critical problem. The ANC have not addressed the issues of poverty and corruption at the grass-root levels.
The ANC is rotten to the core, and the chaos the ruling party is in today has been generated from greed. The ANC has been on a long path of purging anybody with integrity since the 1980s. The ANC is perhaps regretting the constitutional checks and balances that limit their ability to run amok. Bereft of almost all leadership capacity, they are unable to turn the party from its ruinous obsession with corrupted wealth accumulation. The ANC is weaker; confused and obsessed with race; corrupt; and impervious to criticism.
South Africa is a corrupt country, and the entire political body is riddled with it. South Africa is in the middle of a corruption gridlock in which many people in high positions hold secrets of dirty deals on each other and dare not blow the whistle for fear of having it blown on them.  The president of the country, Jacob Zuma, has managed to elude the justice system and has been cleared of major corruption charges. Therefore, how can Zuma crack down on corruption running amok throughout the land?
ANC members compete for access to state resources and have become part of the bling culture. The willingness of the leadership to go along with the traveling circus of looters is rewarded through the use of shortcuts to get rich quickly. The new lifestyle is the standard for achievement, as it depicts the overcoming of the shackles of apartheid. However, the flashy lifestyle among the elite has increased the poverty of the masses in South Africa.
The ANC has lost its soul, and is singularly lacking in any competent leadership. Does the ANC have the values, ability and commitment required to transform the thoroughly corrupt party into a champion democratic party? For years, the ANC has responded with its intention to fight corruption, wasteful expenditure, and failed audits, but has not shown any conclusive victory in combating the corrupt system.

What South Africans are saying - VIDEO - continued


An old video of the KommandoKorp (a group of Afrikaans people, who train youngsters to defend themselves against possible attacks) recently appeared on Social Media; There are some classic comments from mainly the majority.

Racial hatred is alive and well in South Africa, and every year grows deeper and more hurtful. The artificial rainbow was never meant to become a peaceful reconciliation of different races. There are Zulus, Afrikaners, English, Vendas, Indians, Colored and a host of other black cultures that will never attempt to live peacefully as a mixed nation.

In fact, the majority of people in South Africa hate the white race and each passing day is a greater challenge for the minority to stay alive, in this beautiful country.  The quality of life for the minority changes daily. Whites are forcefully excluded from the workplace, due to the government's affirmative action plans.  The arrogance coupled with hatred is a dangerous combination. No wonder South Africa is classified as a dangerous place to live.

The perception that all white people are rich and have loads of money is utter rubbish. There are new white squatter camps springing up around the country each year. The plan of the government to exclude whites from the workplace is working in their favor, thereby eliminating the white race from receiving any income and subjecting them to hopeless poverty.

The follow video comments to the video clearly depict the hatred of white people.

(The Comments are not edited, tells me there is a lot to learn)

  • Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.
  • I would kill you for free not for a packet of cigarettes
  • Swine
  • Nxa boer fuck
  • We shouldn't even give these fools a platform to be heard!
  • This is a serious threat to National Security and constitutes high treason, the arrogance of these boers....
  • Fellow creatures ..lets smoke to this..*saying this with a heavy Afrikaans accent..*
  • Its like watching comedy...
  • Ofcos we dont have the same moral values, they have none!!
  • voetsek go back to ur country u poose
  • This madatjot who does he think he is. Mxm. He should be arrested for the posession of the apartheid flag
  • and treason... it is about time that defying whites are taught a lesson by arresting their pink asses.
  • They just pissed me off.
  • Hey Piet Noortjie jou ma se poes




And then somebody asked the following

Why do we have to blame whites on everything that is going wrong

Replies to this question –
  • Because they layered a foundation for the current state of affairs, they devalued the blacks
  • Stop explaining yourself. If they don't get it by now then that's their problem. Not ours .






·         Stop explaining yourself. If they don't get it by now then that's their problem. Not ours .

Peggy's Story

I have finished another short story for you to read.  Please note, this is not suitable for children, contains adult content, the story is based on a true-life drama.



Peggy’s Story
            Peggy with flowing golden locks and big blue eyes was the drama queen of the family who loved life. It was fantastic, to be alive during the 1980's. Her brothers had moved out, and her parents doted on their only daughter. Peggy was outgoing with a bubbly personality and they gave her their unconditional love and support throughout her life. It was year-end holidays, and after finishing her school term, she managed to find a holiday job while she waited to return to university to study law.
            She had a summer job, at one of the clothing stores in the center of town. The city a crowded place and with the buses running on time it was easy access for her to get to and from work. It was Friday, and she left the store a few minutes after five o'clock. Peggy had plans to meet two of her girlfriends for coffee before going home.
            She went into the bright colored café two blocks away from the bus stop and looked around for her friends. Yes, they were there, seated near the back and drinking a soft drink. She walked over to them and greeted her friends. Sitting down the girls soon babbled on about their holidays. Feeling a tad jealous for not being able to enjoy the benefits of summer because of her job, she promised them she would spend the whole of Sunday with them. They had coffee and muffins and chatted for hours. Peggy looked at her watch and realized it was late and that the last bus would be leaving in fifteen minutes. She took out some money left it on the table and said goodbye to her friends.
            The sun disappeared and the twilight of nightfall emerged. Pegged walked briskly toward the bus terminus, and saw a white car stop with a rather dashing fellow inside, he asked her if she wanted a lift, she ignored him and continued walking. At the bus terminus, she was alone while waiting for the bus to come by. She looked around and noticed a few cars parked in the street behind her and darned few people around at that time.
            Then she felt the cold steel jab her side and a hand covered her mouth.
            "I have a gun pointed at you and don’t try make a sound, come with me." A rugged broken English voice said.
            Shocked into silence, she proceeded with this man as he escorted her to his car. He opened the door and shoved her in. As he moved to walk to the driver's side, she tried to make a dash, but he was too fast and locked the door. He held onto the gun, started the engine of the car, and moved slowly down the dark road. Turning down a dark, desolate road, he drove along; going around in circles and up and down different roads and Peggy knew he was doing this to confuse her. She was right, but not stupid, he ventured into in a quiet suburb not too far from the city center, and Peggy did not recognize this part of town and wondered what her fate would be. He drove down a dark garage parking and stopped the car. It was dimly lit, and he got out of the car, closed the door and walked to her side of the car. He opened up and told her he would not hesitate to shoot if she made a sound. She was petrified and obediently obeyed him and climbed out of the car. Holding onto her arm, they waited in the dark garage for the elevator. It stopped, and the automatic doors opened up, and he pushed her inside, there was a mirror on one side and Peggy had a proper look at her abductor. A dark haired man, close to forty with an overgrown mustache and dark brown eyes, which seemed to squint more inwards. He was dressed in beige flannel pants and a white shirt half-unbuttoned, exposing his tanned hairy chest.
The elevator stopped on the fifth level, she saw as the doors opened. He pushed her out, holding onto her tightly, and escorted her down a well light passage. They paused outside apartment number seventy-five and with his free hand fumbled for keys in his pockets. It was dark, inside, and he did not bother to put a light on. Peggy felt the steel metal of the gun barrel against her face as he moved her toward a large bed. He put on the lamp, and she noticed it was a bachelor apartment with nothing more than a double bed and a small table. The smell of moldy air and body odor filled the small flat. Barely able to breathe she knew her life would end that night. He pulled his pants down to reveal a grossly oversized penis ready for action.
"Please don’t," she begged, He smirked and he slapped her across the face.
He pulled her short mini dress up, ripped her nylon stocking off her, and mounted her. In total disgust, she screamed as he penetrated her. He was heavy and smelled of stale smoke and brandy. She tried to hit him and he held onto her arms tightly, spitting in her face calling her a white whore. She felt a rush of warm semen enter her body and felt the vomit come into her mouth. She opened her mouth emitting the flow of muffin and old coffee, down her neck and onto his hands the flow of vomit ran. He slapped her again and got off her.
            Disgusted that she had vomited during his sexual performance, he pointed the gun at her and said would kill her.
            "Please don’t, I will just go, and you won’t see me again." She pleaded.
            "Do you think I am stupid," He angrily shouted at her.

            He grabbed a bottle of brandy and forced her to drink from it, almost choking from the strong taste she managed to swallow some. He wanted her drunk, and she fought with all her might not to drink the vile tasting brandy. Then like a light bulb going on, her mind told her to pretend to be drunk and get out of this place. She was a fighter and survivor, she could do this, she told herself.

Keeping Racial Hatred Alive


The video that is once again inciting racial hatred.

Keeping racial hatred alive is the new trend in South Africa. An old video filmed in June 2014, depicting dog handlers training dogs with illegal immigrants is cruelty at its best. This video is current resurfacing on social media and creating a new wave of hatred toward the minority white population. It appears that some people strive on exploiting the volatile racial tension by digging into archives and releasing horrific stories in an attempt to expand hatred and infuse unnecessary violence. 

However much I may hate the actions performed by the culprits in the video it will not matter to the majority that it was a handful of people and not all the white citizens who behave in such an atrocious way.  The majority see one incident of bad white behavior and suddenly all whites are equated as cruel and merciless.

There are respect and reconciliation attempts between the different cultures yet there is also the small element of people hell-bent on ruining any chance of understanding between the various cultures.


Here is the video posted on Youtube over a year ago. If you have some time, read the comments to this video.
