One thing remains true about South Africa. Take this to mean what you want , but we struggle to get people to come here , because before they do they have to sift through a lot of negative rubbish written by either the few white people who have been affected by crime (it's uniquely south african that they feel they are a victim of some conspiracy as oppossed to socio-econimic freakishly bad misfortune...and yes....they are a very few) or those who love to advertise any failure from the black government due to being bitter about losing power and privelege.

But despite that , those that come to South Africa for the gross majority love it , find it nothing like the negative version sold by the white agenda filled media , find the quality of life excellent , the people warm and friendly and the county beautiful , creative and vibrant. That's why south african tourism only manages to get 6 million people here every year , but has the highest percentage of repeat visitors. It's a great place to live and you're more than welcome to be part of what many of us , whose voices are drowned out by the emotive irrational doomsdayers , consider to be a wonderful future.
