Didn't he say something like this last time and then he told the whites he was just joking. Or something in that line.

Unity Maqabane, I like it when people work together, South Africans should learn from this.

Any profession requires years of training. Then once you have finished your apprenticeship you still need more years of experience to deal with things they never covered in your training; you branch out into different fields of whatever it is you are doing and even then you need more training and outside experts' input and perhaps they come onto the premises and give seminars to your staff etc

How is farming any different? Stuff doesn't just magically happen because the government told you it will.

On her way to work perhaps?

No, when agreements were signed way back and how the issues were handled by both sides afterwards.

dont think so, as i understand the couple only had to start working after they were evicted :D


im sure there were agreements made and broken, rounds of dishonesty and deceit.. just a lot less rules and moral obligation on how to handle it back then.

still doesnt justify actions of today.

That's why the current president has extended an olive branch to those he and his party wronged. :)

Besides, the party has nothing else to offer voters. Rebuilding the economy will ensure they stay at the helm a while longer.

How are we supposed to work together when so many leaders are constantly threatening us with everything from taking our property to taking our lives?

So many leaders like? just ignore them, The only leader who matters is Ramaphosa, he is the one in power.

Years ago mugabe also said to these idiots that things are hunky dory only to be later assaulted, killed & kicked out. Years down the line they will once again be the focus of politicians riding the wave of populism.

The likes of you need to ufck off because there are plenty of black/Indian and Coloured people with thriving farms. My grandfather is running a top farm producing all kind of crops and racking in thousands of rands per month. The moment you drown this mentality of yours, perhaps we could work together someday - until then - ufck off. Even referring to us as 'locals' has a racial undertone and it is nauseating - if we are locals then what are you? Foreigners? But you don't like it when people call you Europeans. Use your effing brains!

lol and the plot was lost.

If zambia took in farmers from zim, sa etc then yes they are 100% foreigners, what else would they be? In zambia there are already locals not happy with the foreign farmers being there. zambian land leases are transferable, a local chief transferred about 1600ha of tribal land to a foreign farmer in exchange for rent as they were doing nothing with the land (unless a few goats & veg patches qualifies as farming). Why are they not making productive use of the land and why are farmers imported? Give it time and they will be chased out again.

Zimbabwe's President Mnangagwa woos white voters with reassurances

https://mg.co.za/article/2018-07-23...mnangagwa-woos-white-voters-with-reassurances

Zimbabwean President Emmerson Mnangagwa told a crowd of white voters Saturday that their land wouldn’t be taken away and called on them to work with the government, during a campaign rally nine days before elections.

Mnangagwa’s appeal to white voters, many of them farmers, marked a sharp departure from his predecessor Robert Mugabe, who launched an often violent “land reform” campaign to seize farmland from white owners and give it to blacks.

The policy devastated the agricultural sector, sparked a man-made famine and triggered an economic collapse.
