as its so simple to rectify and if every household /shack in SA was electrified it would account for 6% of Eskoms ability provision.I repeat, has Eskom lifted its moratorium on new Plant and new Housing estates?Anything that would require more electricity than is currently being produced?

You know that "negative defeatist" is a euphamism for "loser" right ?

Only the dull witted and unimaginative see problems rather than solutions. The electricity issue in South Africa has pretty much already been sorted out. All we , with the cheapest power in the world needed to do was use 5% less power. Turn off for 1 hour a day. But did we ? Oh no ! Whitey was never going to sacrifice anything for the good of the country. so they turn it of for us 1 hour every 2 weeks while they put the necessary measures in place. Is it really reason to slit our wrists ? Grow up.

Kiddo, you are trying to play grownup.
not yet.
the nice thing I remember about my youth was I had no responsibility.
you are talking BS to people who are going to invest their lives and savings in SA.
95% of the time I agree they will be fine.
its being in the other 5% that stinks.
And you are saying that 5% does'nt exist.

Oh please. People affected by crime exist in every country in the world. It's not 5% of middle classed south africans..that's crazy. You have a slightly higher statisitically chance of any crime happening to you in south africa than for example the unites states as a middle classed person (in some cases much lower), but in reality so slightly it's insignificant. Would you tell people not to go live in the united states because they have 30 murders per 100 000 as opposed to south africa with 40 per hundred thousand ? (much less if you take a sample of middle classes people) ? That's not rational !!!!!

Anyway..stick to the topic...we already have the crime forum. This is about the non issue of electricity in south africa that everyone makes a needless fuss about.

With pleasure.
So the management of Eskom have got it wrong.
There is'nt a problem.
