Those countries issue the same travel warnings year round, year after year though. Not really news.

What would really help the economy is if we got rid of BEE, EE, stupid labour laws, exchange controls, and every other dumb thing the ANC insists on inflicting on us year after year that is driving away foreign investment. Then we can worry about the tourists.

The ANC's economic policies have directly led to the crime problem in South Africa. You're never going to fix the crime problem without fixing the economic problem.

So tourists should stop bringing their money now and the tourism industry should die because of the anc?

Makes zero sense.

Pretty sure the tourists are the only thing keeping the Cape Town going, they have the money few locals do.

No, rich Gauteng refugees, the Boeremafia and Southern Suburbs old money is what keeps Cape Town going.

Lots of first world property owners in the WC... although I suppose you wouldn't really refer to them as 'tourists' so you are probably right.
