Yeah. I'm stupid because I don't conform to your severely racist bull**** outlook on life? I'm stupid because I don't clap my hands when you bend the facts to suit your agenda? You think you didn't benefit anything because of Apertheid and I'm the stupid one? Whatever makes you sleep @ night.
There are giant flaws in the system, you're extremely correct.
Educating people who live in absolute poverty is an incredibly difficult challenge. The current school infrastructure (much of that built in the Apartheid era) is not coping. The teachers struggle to adapt to teaching kids who can't do their homework and who can't grasp simple concepts because they haven't received any basis for such understanding from their parents. It requires exceptional teaching skills to teach such a child - something most of our teachers are a) not equipped to do and b) not paid enough to do. There are gifted teachers out there, and the black kids that are making it through the system now (all universities are enjoying record enrollments right now in fact) can thank these teachers. So, while the bulk of the problems in the education system are caused by the current administration, there are definite reminiscent apartheid causes to at least some of these problems.
Based on what do you say this? Our public health care system is actually coping despite being horribly understaffed. Incidentally, my mother was treated in a public hospital for cancer because none of the private facilities in South Africa had the infrastructure to deal with it. The professor who treated my mom was a resident teaching doctor at Johannesburg General Hospital.
There is a massive upgrade system under way on all major road systems in the country. All roads deteriorate, that's what happens when the bulk of your population travels by road....
Based on what? A sensationalist Carte Blanche piece? Did you pay attention to the part where they stipulated and stressed over and over that the water purification for all the major cities is world class? By the way, next time you visit a major European country, see how often you drink tap water.... Fact is, under Apartheid the majority population of this country had to walk miles to fetch water. The current administration has brought water to most of these people.
We've not had any rolling blackouts since January last year, so it does appear that demands are currently being met. That said, there is a shortfall on capacity, and the government is aware of that. Just remember, under the Apartheid regime, electricity was not provided to the majority of the population. That again has changed where the majority of the population now has access to electricity.
How does this substantiate your argument? Every single government in the world has corruption.
He was found "Not Guilty".... Besides, this country supports the premise of "Innocent till proven guilty".
Strikes can turn violent. It happens. It certainly is not unique to South Africa or even Africa for that matter....
Rubbish. Everything you listed here is not blamed on apartheid and certainly is not unique to South Africa. But to deny that some of the things happening today is partly due to policies that were upheld due to Apartheid is just plain ignorance.
Bye bye.
