(www.abndigital.com) It appears many farmers in Africa have Georgia on their minds. More than sixty have applied to make the journey across the world to farm in the former Soviet Republic with the promise of cheap freehold government land. The Transvaal Agricultural Union - which is backing the move to Georgia - believes as many as a thousand skilled South African farmers could go to plough their own furrow in Georgia - a potential loss of farming skills for Africa. ABN's Senior Journalist Chris Bishop reports from Pretoria.

You say "come and board and help," OK so what does that mean in English? We're here, we're running farms, providing food and jobs, paying taxes, etc. What else should we also be doing? Also, what's this AWB nonsense? The AWB is tiny and nobody really listens to what they have to say, except their own members. Sure when ET died it was a big deal, but mostly because of the way it was played up by the media
-
These concept of sharing, and working together was in place since 1994 when MANDELA-DECLERK first introduced it under the land CLAIMS redistribution methods and process. The AWB shut the doors up as we saw the late TERREBLANCH and his crew still interested in a Segregated SA. so buying time is over now don't you think? WATCH THESE VIDEO ON YOUTUBE "African Farmers Workshop and Expo 2011-Pretoria, South Africa...Its not a FAIR SUMMARY because the BOERS are slowing the process intentionally
-
It would'nt be seen as a FAST- TRACK if the AWB in all the farm lands came in Ealier and open up to the REDISTRIBUTION programs introduced and agreed upon by DECLERK-MANDELA'S views of the new SA. You have been given enough time already there should'nt be anytime waisted anylonger as it will create & build more poverty in SA as well as slowing Food production when the STATE has been ready long time ago willing buyer willing seller methods in place only to find out that the BOERS are buying time
-
Hey, welcome back from the long weekend :) Look, let's get back to the point, which is land redistribution. We all agree it should happen, but you want to fast-track it while I want to ensure sustainability by prioritizing the training of the farmers who will take over. Also I want to keep it on a "willing buyer willing seller" program, not sure what you want on that score. Is that a fair summary? What do you agree or disagree with?

APARTHEID DEBT is taking the whole CHUNK out of sa budget whether it was MANDELA'S time or under any NEW SA LEADER its still there..YES today's debt is for all SA rebuilding sa as compared to what Apartheid debt means( Funds borrowed to built a white only led SA economy, Keep segregation alive, kill non white SA citizens and strengthen the Apartheid legislation of SA). All in all we can'nt say WHITE people can lead a nation better than non white when they left such EVIL ways in SA soil.
-
Today's debt under Thabo Mbheki and Jacob Zuma is neccessary becuase it has helped at most parts as like any NATION that is on debt building their economies. but then the APARTHEID DEBT was'nt building SA equally shared economy but only promoting SEGREGATION and white power rule only.. Today SA is still paying huge interest on that debt regardless of who the leader is today or during Mandela's time its still there and slowing sa growth big time.
-
These will be easy if BOERS can come on board and be part of the talks and solve the problems of the parents creation together with th enew gov of SA un der the ANC, with the coloured, East Indian communtities and black community representatives. when bringing in the left behind to the peace of the pie that they have been left out for too long it means the doors should be opened to work together, share, rebuild and move forward..thats the part that BOERS don't understand HOW IS IT CONFUSING?
-
SA economy is in the hands of the BOERS 80% of it and what yu need to be doing is let go of 55% and get only 25% of the share..This how it works divide the economy of SA equally to ( 25% each) black,colored, East Indians and Whites). In all sectors of the economy that contribute to SA BUDGET..all these sectors will pay taxes evenly and Service delivery will eventually be reaching to all sa societies. it won't be easy to let go but thats the key to FAIRNESS and to rebuild SA economy
-
Like Stve Biko said "SA is will never be free if the Uneven wealth, uneven lands and uneven resources is a still factor. There is no need for me to Beg a BOER to open up inorder to rebuild sa from the bad mistakes that was created by their parents but to continue with the struggle of negotiating more better legal policies that will Rebuild SA from a sharing pespective point of view because we mised that before and now its the time.
-
Get on board be part of the talk and the walk; you say you are South African AFRIKAANER and South Africa is your home therefore you should understand that the Apartheid lesgilation left a mark in today SA society based on the unequal SA wealth, lands and resources and to correct that allow the new SA gov under the ANC to get the economy that is in the hands of the minority to be shared equally to reach all sa socities so that service delivery can reach all and fast then move forward together
-
Okay, what should I see differently then? You tell me. What should I be doing or admitting? I have asked this question many times to many people and they can't give me an answer. Give me one thing to do and I'll do it - but what? They can't decide, they just want me to be guilty forever so that they can keep my mind enslaved forever.

Nelson Mandela came out of prison in 1990, not 1994. I have reviewed my facts and you're right, there was some debt over due to the isolation. But, the debt was so low that by 1999 there was none of it left, due to good management by the interim government. I will go so far as to say, it was because Mandela was still at the wheel. But in the meantime we have a lot of debt again because of Thabo "Silent Diplomacy" Mbeki. And JZ inherited this debt, but he hasn't prioritized getting us out of it.
-
The reason why misusing of SA currency will always be there is that SA as a whole from BOERS, COLORED, BLACKS and East Indians aint in the same shoes in regards to getting their Wealth, lands and resources to work for all. Its unlikely to overcome all corruption from all sorts of emerging political groups if SA communities are failing to solve the needed matters to them. Thats why the Naked sushi's,Salmon fish and Big cars will be a lot as a result more poverty will evolve in SA.
-
Yes i have forgiven you for your stupidity but then come out to the open & lets share the peace of the pie inorder to rebuild a new SA that will be made out of hard work,smart SA all colors, share sa wealth,lands &resources equally for better service delivery to reach all corners of SA lands.why the pain of explaning when the obvious is there in front you.not neccessary blaming you but wanting to get you on board to view SA with a different eye as i see fit becos my eye has seen your part.

In 2010 SA brought the Apartheid debt concerns for further neagotiations with IMF and other Apartheid Financial supporters; guess what so far as SA is in AFRICA has no other choice but to pay the debt every yr. So far as Africa is still divided undemocratic and not together to support one another they will never make it becuase its not only SA that has a colonial debt or APARTHEID DEBT, but then a few African nations where forgiven by the IMFand other lenders YET SA is still trapped.
-
You are talking lots of rusbish because Nelson Mandela just came out of Prison in 1994 and in 1995 he was handed a BILL of 38billion UK Pounds..If Southern Africa is to be peaceful and prosperous, and also a growing trading partner with Europe, it should spend its money to rebuild, and not to pay an Aparthied debt as well as colonial debt, As Europe learned, this is an investment in preventing war against the BOERS today so SA is trapped the boers left all these mess. ...

SA economy is not evenly spread to all SA citizens becuase it is still controlled by One Race and whatever is left out is used up to help all South Africans as per building more affordable housing for the left behind, building infastructure and remember that money is knew to some and the possibilties of not being used wisely will be more.Tax payers money do not FUND ANC parties but through member fees, donations, promotions and assets the ANC can afford.
-
You see - I completely agree with those things you mention that the ANC spends on. But the other things it spends money on - propaganda in the media, big election parties, big cars and houses for themselves, naked sushi parties, etc., etc. Explain to me how that is helping the poor??
