Let's hope his passion, vision and belief in his nation's future carry on after he's gone..
There are still millions of Africans living in poverty in squalid shanty towns; unemployment, crime and violence are still rife as they were when Mandela took up the fight.

Your son is a wise young man. I'm feeling quiet sad to think the world may lose such a great leader soon but also glad there is still hope in this big messed up world we live in.

I think there's more awareness of peoples' plights these days and the enormous gulf between the 'haves' and 'have nots', particularly in nations such as Africa.
So complex, with all the politics, corruption and other issues getting in the way of progress ..

Many wealthy white South Africans have been vacating the country after all the civil unrest that's been going on

The climate here suits people from SA curls, it's fairly similar
I think they probably acclimatise and assimilate fairly easily, being white and speaking English.
They are generally well-educated and easily employable, therefore would not be considered a 'drain' on the Government's welfare system.

we do live in a lucky country, i was so lucky they let me in
but bit by bit the government and do gooders are taking away our rights, chipping at us very slowly.
we have no free speech anymore,
and we still have lots of poverty here too, what about all the homeless here too, its 2013, so we have parts that are still bad, but compared to other countries,if we can afford it, we can still eat
