In the better suburbs ? Home invasions ? Extremely low chance of that happening. Most people live in complexes or in highly protected fort like houses in Joburg. I've seen a statistic that showed that House breaking is higher in Australia than South Africa, even including Joburg.

Hijackings ? Sure. More likely , but still there's only an extremely low chance that will happen to you too.

It's important to stay alert , but mostly it's all fearmongering.

My brother did for 5 years. I visited often. I never once worried about crime while there. I'm rational and sane after all. What next ? Worrying about the sky falling on your heads ?

When you're a child i can understand fearing irrational things. But as we age we are supposed to rid ourselves of the boogie monsters under our beds.

Unfortunately, having just found you on the internet, it 'll be a few years before you're actually old enough to make that statement.

If you don't consider me of age , you must be senile.

I'm 31.

I don't know what happened to you in South Africa or what agenda you have to spread malicious hyperbole , but it's so far from sane to propose that enocuraging people to invest or travel in South Africa is endangering them.

Demonstrate to me with statistics that someone's life (via being a tourist) or money are at risk being invested in South Africa. You can't , because it's just not true. You're blowing the baseless hot air here , and using nothing but fear mongering to back it up.

Always convenient to use fear when you can't use logic to win an argument. Fear always wins over reason in the end. That's why so many people like you running around offering up your strange ideas about South Africa. You might be able to fool some people that have never been here , but please don't expect me to fall for it. I live in the damn country and know how bizare your description of it is.

[Daxk]

Aaaah yes, you live in the Country, or you live in korea or you can quite get it.
Anyone who criticises the govt is a racist, you see it all as a conspiracy, are you actually seeing someone professionaly?
There is no power crises, there is no crime crises,there is no judicial crises, the ANC, who have a majority sufficient to change the constitution has just passed a bill that says someone can decide what your land is worth and you cant fight it in court, want to restrict Press freedom under the guise of Child porn, and this is all ok??
what are you smoking? are you allowed to smoke at your mental age?

Stop being such a whinger. If you don't want to live in South Africa then don't. We're better off without you. But please don't run around spreading hyperbole. Yes South Africa has problems , but don't pretend they are worse than they really are to try and validate your decision to leave. You lost the right to moan about South Africa the moment you left. It's not your country anymore , it's ours now ...and we kindly request that you stop spreading malicious lies and exagerattions because you're bitter.

If I asked you to describe south africa to someone , and asked them to visit here. After their visit do you think they'd agree with you ? Nonsense . They find all your screwball stories about what a war zone it was to be laughable and you know it ! They'd see beautiful beaches ,stay in glorious hotels , each fantastic cheap food and drink good cheap wine , meet wonderful people and see many great sights. 99% of them would want to return , as oposed to 94% of people who visit Australia.

People have an option , they can either listen to the bitter people like you with their agenda's and hate , or they can listen to the rational people like me. I always find when you're looking for the truth , avoid the people who are highly emotive and have a personal vendeta about an issue.


Now back on topic...do you suggest Durban is a bad place to live ?

[Daxk]

Not at all, if you bothered to read I told the OP that Durban was great but that PE was better.
And That neither place was anything like Johannesburg.
You're not actually tracking very well are you?
