WHITES LEAVING AT 24 000; BLACKS, ASIANS ARRIVING AT 300 000 ANNUALLY
Will there be a future for whites in South Africa? Definitely not, if
immigration and emigration figures are taken in consideration.
The only solution for the diminishing white population is to try and
realize self-determination within the next five years, according to
Front National leader Hannes Engelbrecht. If this cannot be
accomplished, the Afrikaner will be a nation in true diaspora.
Latest figures from Statistics South Africa show that another 95 158
whites emigrated between 2011 and June 2015. It means that close to a
million whites have already sought their livelihood outside the Third
World country in western countries; and the trend is continuing.
During the same four year period 1 067 937 blacks from Africa and 40
929 Asians immigrated to South Africa, making it impossible for the
remaining whites to maintain their demographic rights.
“To make matters worse’, said Engelbrecht; “the remainder of whites
are subjected to more racially discriminatory laws than during
Apartheid. Affirmative action, BEE and quotas are playing havoc with the
whites’ so-called equal rights”.
The Front National leader said that the most worrying aspect of the
figures was that the white emigrants were mostly the skilled, educated
and experienced whites sought after by developed western countries.
“This bodes ill for South Africa as a whole. It is fast turning into a
typical Third World African country that will never be able to return
to normality with such an influx of foreigners and exit of skilled
people”.
As for self-determination, Engelbrecht said, it was putting a lot of
pressure on those whites trying to maintain their own language, culture
and outlook on life when all the odds were stacked against them.
“I honestly believe we only have five years left. If white South
Africans don’t put their money and votes into the ideal of
self-determination now, the sell-out of 1994 will be complete”.
Every figure is relative: if 100 000 of five million leave it is not
so devastating as when 100 000 of three million leave, or 100 000 of
three million.

Outrage over gruesome killing of lions and tigers
13 Lions killed in recent days. Two Tigers killed yesterday. 15
Crocodile poisoned yesterday. In many instances the heads and feet have
been cut off.
Commissioner Lieutenant General Ledwaba has appealed to game farm owners to “beef” up their security. We would like to appeal to him for permission to hunt the Traditional Healers who are creating a demand for this nonsense.
CICA believes that this recent upsurge in killings is directly related to the “traditional healer” marke tand that the cause can be directly traced to people (including our president) believing the Sangoma and Inyanga lies and promises that these animal body parts will clear up many “curses” including HIV and political problems.
Maybe it’s time to go hunt another big snake, we are tired of these witch doctors disturbing dead ancestral spirits with lies instead of teaching people to look forward not backward for solutions.

Under-funding, not protests, is driving South African universities down global rankings
The most widely respected world university rankings have all recently published their latest results. The release of the Times Higher Education 2016-17 and Quacquarelli Symonds 2016-17 rankings have coincided with a resurgence in protests at many of South Africa’s universities.
Most of South Africa’s universities have dropped down these ranking tables.
Some people argue that the protests – which relate to fees, access and transformation and have occurred on and off for the past 18 months – are having a direct effect on universities’ global standing on rankings tables.
But it’s unlikely that the protests themselves are directly affecting rankings. Instead, decades of government under-funding in the higher education sector may be at least partly to blame.
The University of Cape Town (UCT), where I am a deputy vice-chancellor, has handed a memorandum to the Department of Higher Education and Training. It states:
We believe that government has not acted decisively to ensure sustainable and adequate funding to address the systemic crisis in the higher education sector. Government has placed an undue burden on students, parents and universities to fund higher education.
This may seem unfair: the government has dramatically increased the amount of money it gives to universities. But so have students. And educational inflation has played a part too. In real terms, the amount universities receive in state subsidy as a proportion of their total income has declined from 49% in 2000 to 40% in 2012.
Funding has a direct effect on many of the indicators that are used to measure performance in world university rankings. With less funding, staff-student ratios rise. Top staff, who produce the most papers, leave for more lucrative salaries abroad. Universities can’t afford to send their academics to many conferences, so fewer conference papers are produced.
How rankings are calculated
UCT has, for some time, been able to compensate for the drop in government funding for research. We’ve done this, for instance, by working hard to increase external income – particularly research grants and donations. This has been remarkably successful.
But not all South African universities are in a position to do this. And a point will be reached where external income, for which there is increasingly tough competition, is not enough. UCT may have reached that point. Some other universities will have reached it long ago.
Universities don’t yet need to despair. First of all, a drop in rankings does not mean a drop in actual performance. On most of the indicators, in most of the rankings, UCT continues to improve as it has done for many years. A number of our sister universities are, likewise, improving across several indicators: producing more papers, bringing in more income, increasing their proportion of postgraduate students – all important indicators of research performance.
But it is perfectly possible for an institution to improve its scores and still see a significant drop in the rankings. This is because scores are ranked and so performance is relative. If other institutions have improved their scores even more than yours, they will climb above your institution in the rankings.
This is important. It’s exactly what is happening to South African universities. Institutions from elsewhere in the world are improving much more significantly. And it is no coincidence that the countries which are seeing a rapid rise in the rankings are mostly those that have chosen to invest heavily in their universities.
The most startling example is China, whose various projects to produce top-ranked universities, such as the C9 initiative, are paying off spectacularly. Another well-performing BRICS competitor, India, spends 1.23% of its gross domestic produce (GDP) on tertiary education. This is compared to South Africa’s weak 0.74%.
After the release of its latest rankings Quacquarelli Symonds argued that levels of investment determine which institutions progress and which regress. Top American universities, which have significant endowments to rely on, and Asian universities, which have benefited from significant public funding, are rising. Many Western European universities, on the other hand, have seen cuts to public funding for research and are losing ground.
Reputation matters
There is one way in which the student protests themselves, rather than the under-funding that caused them, may directly affect some of the indicators by which universities are measured.
Each ranking uses different indicators to measure a university’s performance. But on the whole they are a combination of hard data, such as citations – the number of times an author has been cited, or referred to – and ratio of staff to students. There are also more qualitative “reputation” indicators. These are achieved by asking academics and employers to list the top institutions in their fields.
It is these “reputation” indicators that could be directly affected by the protests. Although they are intended to be objective, it does not require a great stretch of the imagination to believe that some academics who see South African institutions in constant crisis, with lectures cancelled, exams postponed and buildings burned, are affected at least subconsciously.
South African institutions were particularly hard hit in the reputation indicator in THE’s latest rankings. However, some universities that were affected by the protests bucked the trend: the University of the Witwatersrand rose in the THE rankings. So there is no clear evidence of a causal relationship between the protests and the universities’ performance in the rankings.
But does it matter?
In assessing the extent to which #feesmustfall protests might have affected South African universities’ rankings, I have left aside the much larger and more important question of whether it matters.
Universities certainly regard rankings with a measure of caution. Rankings are very imperfect measurements of excellence. They take no account of the contexts in which universities find themselves, particularly those based in developing or emerging economies. They do not measure some of the functions of a university that the sector would regard as critical: for instance, whether the research a university undertakes makes a difference, or whether the graduates it produces are thoughtful and productive citizens.
Nevertheless, the drop in rankings has been greeted with consternation in the media. The coincidence with the university protests could lead to a damaging narrative that the country’s universities are inevitably “going to the dogs”.
I can categorically state that UCT is nowhere near that kind of precipitous decline. However, if under-funding from government continues and the issue of fees is not resolved, I am less confident of our and our sister universities’ future.

Hold white people hostage
CICA – Crime Intelligence & Community Awareness – South Africa
(CICA) respond to Mumsy Maphakela after hate speech, racist and
incitement to violence posts were posted on social media. Here is the
response.
Mumsy Maphakela you are disgusting – you should be charged with incitement to violence and hate speech telling protestors to take white people hostage.
People like you will destroy South Africa. The corrupt politicians want and need racism to further their corrupt objectives. They WANT to “Divide & conquer” with racism to hide their antics, and you are helping them. Silly silly little child.
Your ignorance is astounding. We have black, white and Indian admin at CICA and we were discussing your vicious and blinded bigotry. Did you know that more than 70% of white people voted YES to end apartheid in the white only referendum which was held pre 1994??
You are no different to PennySparrow. You are disgusting and should be charged with hate speech.

ANC Draws Closer To Launching Economic Redistribution and DNA Program
Recent ANC reports indicate that 23, 3 million black South Africans
have more than 25 percent Western Eurasian DNA, and fit into the (B-)
sub-group.
Scientists in Gauteng believe that a mysterious migratory event occurred around 3,000 years ago known as the ‘Eurasian backflow’ – when modern humans who left Africa around 50,000 years ago, suddenly flooded back. This resulted in a shift of DNA percentage in African populations over the course of a couple of generations. For many it resulted in a (B-) sub-group categorization, which is evident today.
This revelation is creating much angst within the ANC due to their hopes that the black (B+) group would be larger, thereby providing them with a smoother path towards accelerated economic empowerment.
Kebby Maphatsoe – veterans’ minister, has stated that the re-categorization of the (B-) sub-group is just a temporary setback, and will not slow their plans for economic advancement. Although he does not believe that the 23, 3 million people being categorized as ‘too low in black DNA’ will be well received, especially if it prevents them from full land and business ownership rights.
Some see this (B+) and (B-) System as an ANC strategy to speed up the transition of wealth from non-blacks to blacks (diminishing majority), in order to win back the hearts of many of their disillusioned voters. There is still consternation of how the population will react when 23, 3 million people are told they are essentially defined as non-blacks due to their excessively high levels of western Eurasian DNA levels.
Following defeats in recent municipal elections, politicians from the ruling, African National Congress have spoken out against what they call the new “economic apartheid”. As a result, there is renewed interest in implementing this new program to help facilitate a smoother economic distribution based on sub-Saharan DNA distribution across the broader population – they believe this will help swing voter support in metro areas back towards the ANC in 2019.
The big question will be how 23, 3 million people react when they are told they don’t have enough black DNA to qualify for full benefits.
Once again, our government appears to be sliding down a precipitous path of racial profiling to leverage their political muscle, and desperately hold onto their diminishing stranglehold over a country that so desperately needs a competent government who uses legitimate methods to spur the economy, not cosmetic surgery that only results in further scarring.
