Fwd: PRETORIA: GIVE THAT WOMAN A BELLS

TO: Executive Mayor Cllr Kgosientso Ramokgopa,

I am aware of the fact that you have been embroiled in lengthy legal
battles with various organisations that want to prevent you from
changing the name of Pretoria to Tshwane. I find this extremely
disturbing and I do not agree with these organisations at all.

As a proud descendant of the Boer Nation that founded this once
beautiful, first world city, I have to insist that you change the name
to Tshwane as soon as possible.

I personally think it is an insult to the legacy of my proud
forefathers that this hell hole of a third world slum should bare the
name of the Pretorius family. I am of the opinion that it would be
much more fitting for the remnants of what was once Pretoria, to be
named after the ancestors of the people responsible for its collapse.

The Boer people have no interest in being associated with the filthy,
crime ridden streets and the parks and squares that now reek of urine
and decay.

I sincerely hope that you will look kindly on my request to no longer
insult the name and legacy of the proud people who built this city but
do the right thing and name it after the ancestors of those who
destroyed it.

Kind Regards

Sunette Bridges

Fwd: Gee vir diƩ buffel 'n Bell's!

As dit nie vir selfoonfoto's was nie, sou niemand kon glo dat 'n
buffel homself in die kroeg – tussen die Bell's en Klipdrift nogal –
van Hlosi Game Lodge in Paterson tuisgemaak het nie.

Dié grootmeneer het eers in die swembad "geduik" vir 'n lafenis
voordat hy 'n uiltjie in wooneenheid no.1 gaan knip het. Die groot
dors het hom waarskynlik ná sy Sondagmiddagslapie oorval, want hy het
toe sy weg na die kroeg gevind.

"Hlosi is op 'n private wildreservaat, Amakhala, gebou," het Shane van
Moerkerken, skakelbeampte hier, verduidelik. "Die buffelbul het eers
'n paar dae teen die heining langs beweeg voordat hy nader gekom het
om water uit die vlak swembad te drink, soos wat die diere maar
gereeld doen. Hy het daarna egter in die soutwaterbad op die erf
geklim – maar darem net halflyf."

Volgens Shane van Moerkerken het die bul trappies langs uit die
soutwaterbad geklim en 'n paar happies gras geniet voordat hy by die
naaste wooneenheid in is om te rus.

Dis ná sy slapie dat hy koelte (en dalk nóg lafenis) teen dié dag se
hitte van 36 °C gesoek het. Die kroeg was toe sy heel beste opsie.

"Hy het eers koelte onderdak – langs die kroeg se ingang – gesoek. Hy
het nuuskierig, maar versigtig, binnegegaan asof hy niks wou omstamp
nie," het Van Moerkerken gesê. "Hy het 'n wyle by die kroeg uitgehang
en rondgesnuffel voordat hy by die ander deur, ewe versigtig, uit is.
Die buffel is intussen weer veilig terug gelei na die wildreservaat."

Hoewel die oord só ingerig is dat olifante, buffels en selfs voëls
hier water kan drink, is dit glo die eerste keer dat 'n dier homself
só tuisgemaak het.

"Ons gaste is op 'n veilige afstand gehou, net vir ingeval. Maar op
die keper beskou, was die bul se 'kuier' ietwat van 'n
vermaaklikheid," het hy spottend gesê.

Fwd: ESKOM: The true story from an ex-Eskom Engineer !

The view below is from an Eskom engineer (1977 – 2004) (Forced to take
Early Pension due to Affirmative Action)

Eskom (when it was the Electricity Supply Commission) was one of the
best companies in the world.

It was owned by all South Africans, and was a non-profit making
organization. Money was always set aside, by selling electricity for
more than it cost to produce, making profit for replacement and
expansion. (No World bank or Government loans).

In 1994 it was turned into a business with the government as sole
shareholder. This was done to collect further tax from those who
actually pay for electricity, and to provide a vehicle for the
implementation of government policies in the form of job creation and
black empowerment.

Profits, and the money set aside for replacement and expansion and
maintenance, was paid to the government as dividends. The sole
'shareholder' directly appointed most of the executive, and
non-executive directors.

These appointments came out of the ranks of the ANC and were people with
no managerial or Power Plant experience.

The people started getting appointed & promoted based on potential.

They couldn't perform the work but the people who could do the work were
retrenched based on skin colour and were re-employed as contractors.

Although no additional work was getting done (due to lack of funds
because of the increased workforce of roughly 23%) this was fine because
the government wanted to reduce unemployment.

In order to bring relief to poverty stricken townships, Eskom directors
were instructed to produce the cheapest electricity in the world. This
plan did not work, because of all the extra wages, contractors, a
management team that did not have a clue how to run a power plant,
resulted in ESCOM running into huge losses for the first time in history.

To compensate for this, the non-competent management team cut the
maintenance budget by 55% This was the first "crack" in the once stable,
profit making Power giant's foundation.

The sole shareholder in the Mbeki era wouldn't allow Eskom to build any
further power stations, saying that this would be done by private
investors. The private investors didn't come to the party because
electricity was too cheap (remember the reduced fee for the poverty
stricken masses) to provide adequate return on investment.

Five years too late Eskom was allowed to expand and build 2 huge, new
power stations, but it didn't have any money. This had to be borrowed.

The reason for this was that the ANC government instructed ESCOM NOT to
cut the power to non-paying black townships, resulting in HUGE losses.
(In the 2014-2015 book year, Soweto was R670 million in arrears, with
more the than 5.2 million illegal aliens).

The "New" Black uneducated, with no experience, signed a contract with
the Richards Bay Hillside Smelter to deliver 120 MW of power, for 25
years (Who in his right mind signs a contract for such a long period?)

At a reduced cost of 27% of the real cost of electricity. (120 MW is
enough power to run a city the size of Vereeniging). The ANC, the sole
shareholder, wanted a piece of the cake (the two new power plants) and
'got' a big piece of Hitachi - the company who 'won' the contract to
supply the boilers for these power stations.

Because of this Eskom wasn't allowed to take Hitachi to court when poor,
sub grade materials were supplied.

Then Eskom, with its reduced standards, attempted to project manage the
construction of these new power stations by itself.

What a calamity !!!!!

The money was borrowed from the World Bank - however because they are
coal stations a requirement was the installation of flue gas
de-sulphurisation.

This hasn't happened (yet) because of insufficient water. So Eskom (they
don't mention the ANC Government) is in the s..t with the World Bank.

In short, because of taxation, affirmative action, transformation,
employment, equity, BBBEE, lots and lots of corruption, a bloated and
bureaucratic workforce etc. Eskom has run out of money and generation
capacity, standards have dropped dramatically, corporate memory is being
lost at an alarming rate due to "forced" retrenchments of skilled,
qualified white persons with years of experience.

Today Eskom is attempting to borrow the money for the steam generator
replacement at Koeberg from a French bank.

One of the questions that this bank is asking is about post Fukushima
safety improvement progress.

Guess what !!!!!

Because there is no money ..........

As is always the case, SOMEONE must pay. So Eskom wanted to dramatically
increase its price. The government (who is also the sole shareholder)
wouldn't allow an increase large enough to cover the cost of its
mismanagement.

So Eskom is bankrupt, and, there is no money for maintenance, so the
situation will carry on until total breakdown is the last resort.

Fwd: THE SHOCKING TRUTH ABOUT RACISM

By Juju Mkize <https://www.facebook.com/juju.mkhize?fref=nf>

<<< How the hell can we believe you Mr President >>>

"South Africans are psychologically sick as a result of the violence
inflicted upon the majority of the country's people during the apartheid
era", President Jacob Zuma said.

This is getting really old! The history of black South Africans has
always been that of violence, death and destruction - NOT inflicted upon
them by white people in this country.

Shaka Zulu, during his 10-year reign butchered more than 2 million black
people in South Africa, not counting the deaths during mass tribal
migrations to escape his armies. He had his warriors clubbed to death
upon the merest sign of weakness. He neither took a legal wife nor
fathered a son, for fear that his heir would plot against him, and had
his concubines executed if he discovered they were pregnant. When his
mother died, he massacred thousands of his subjects so their families
would mourn along with him. Shaka retained his throne through the worst
kind of sheer terror, vast mass executions, torture and mindless butchery.

His brother, Dingane, was no better. He took power after the
assassination of Shaka and started his reign by butchering those loyal
to Shaka.

THAT, amongst many other horror stories of black-on-black violence, is
the history of Black South Africa.

During the Apartheid years it was not better. Factional fighting and
tribal conflict was again the main cause of violence and death amongst
black South Africans.

During the Apartheid era, from 1948 to 1994, the average life expectancy
of black South Africans had risen to 64 years, on par with Europe's
average life expectancy. Infant death rates had by been reduced from 174
to 55 infant deaths per thousand, higher than Europe's, but considerably
lower than the rest of the African continent's. The African population
in South Africa increased by 50%.

Deaths due to political violence during apartheid:

21 000 people died in political violence in South Africa during
apartheid of whom 14 000 died during the six-year transition process
from 1990 to 1994.

This includes SA Defence Force actions, for instance the 600 deaths at
Kassinga in Angola during the war in 1978.

Of those deaths, the vast majority, 92%, have been primarily due to
Africans killing Africans, such as the inter-tribal battles for territory.

During the period June 1990 to July 1993 a total of 8580 (92%) of the 9
325 violent deaths during the period June 1990 to July 1993 were caused
by Africans killing Africans, or as the news media often calls it,
"Black on Black" violence - hostel killings, Inkatha Freedom Party
versus ANC killings and taxi and turf war violence.

The security forces caused 518 deaths (5.6%) throughout this period.
During the transitional period, the primary causes of deaths were not
security forces nor white right-wing violence against blacks, but mainly
due to "black-on-black necklace murders", tribal conflict between the
ANC-IFP, bombs by the ANC and PAC's military wings in shopping centers,
landmines on farm roads, etc.

In this country TODAY as many as 18 000 people are murdered EVERY year.
...and those are the official statistics. More than 400 000 people have
been murdered in South Africa under ANC rule. The past 20 years have
been the most violent in the history of this country since the death of
Shaka Zulu.

...and NONE of it has anything to do with WHITE people or Apartheid...
but I guess if you repeat the lie often enough you actually start
believing the drivel coming from your mouth, Mr. Uneducated President!!!

At least seven people are missing after yesterday's
floods and there are warnings from the weather service that
more heavy rain is expected in Gauteng this week. The
flash floods also caused a partial shutdown at OR Tambo
