This is not about 1st world or 3rd world but about control. The old NP cadres liked to be in control and the ANC never saw any reason to change it because it suited them. Having everything centralized suits their control narrative, their socialist narrative, their self-delusional Viva ANC...
How stupid are we all? The cracks aren't just showing, they are eroded to the Grand Canyon and the ANC is just spackling over it with a bit of Polyfill. And yet for the most part we remain quiet and give them another chance. Mbalula has just opened up her excuses bag and sounds just like any...
Facing the same issue now. Part ordered but I was searching for insight on removal. Have you done the replacement yet? I can confirm though that the 650w is the 6 mm nut. I assume that whole nut in your picture is "it". As far as I understand it, the nut is left hand threaded (makes sense given...
I've always held that if the old government had really wanted to disrupt the revolutionaries all they had to do is educate black women. Not that they wanted ANY women to get educated. Education is exactly what they should have focused on - ask the Chinese. 26 wasted years on. I worked in school...

Recently had the company Lightstruck installing cable along the pavement outside my house as they have a contract with the Municipality. I had an issue with getting out of my driveway as they had dug a trench. When I asked them to fill it to take my wife to work they said I could "drive over...
Down the road from my house is a supermarket called Store S. It used to stock everything I needed and so I went their almost every day. They charged a small fee for parking which was not a problem since driving there was easier than walking and I could buy all my groceries in one place. Then...
Customer of Take2 and Kalahari from the beginning and have never had a bad experience and only one hiccup in 10 years with Takelaot. When a product was faulty and needed to be returned they went out of their way to help. They build their dominance by persistence and SERVICE. Can't say the same...
I had to check the calender to make sure I was not in the 90's. There are so many better ways to do this. There is so much actual content out there now and the SABC insists on following the same tired path. No wonder every township shack in my town has a dish. As an organisation supposed to...
