Everyone is ready to bash SAns who are blocking illegal foreigners for free health care but no one is ready to talk about Zimbabweans selling free medication from SAn clinic. One person can round 5 or more clinics to get ARVs.
I know there are struggling people from foreign countries who are decent. But these people are not tax paying, and put pressure in the entire system.
A lot are also not decent, and a great cause of crime. This useless government can't even keep it's own people happy, how are they going to do so for millions of foreigners too?
Aaaaai shem!!!! We are working to support African countries and our politicians. The only two groups in the country who does not feel the effects of a tax increase, newly introduced R200 Eskom network ntoni ntoni charge and annual increase of everything but your salary 😭😭😭😭
@PhathekaPat The constitution does not say that everyone has the right to access health care services in public hospitals only, does this mean that private hospitals not allowing free access to healthcare are in direct breach of the constitution?🤔
@Yamkela_Mavela@PhathekaPat Good question 🤔
The videos I saw, did not say no health care to patients, they were directing them to private hospitals so that they can use their travel health insurance or pay cash. Which they suppose to have...
The SAHRC is encouraging illegality and needs to explain to South Africans who want to abide by the law, why illegal foreigners must be allowed to get services in South Africa?
Surely, by encouraging illegal foreigners to be granted free services in hospitals, the SAHRC is denying South Africans the right to get quality care as most hospitals cannot provide quality health care because of the high numbers of foreigners taking up places, medicines, appointments, etc.
The SAHRC seems to be working against South Africans even though they are supposed to protect the rights of SOUTH AFRICANS.
@SAHRCommission Section 21 (1)(f) mandates that foreign travelers seeking a visa must provide proof of medical cover. This requirement ensures that visitors are financially able to cover any medical expenses incurred during their stay, including potential emergency situations.
I have learned with deep sadness of the passing of former Deputy President and former Premier of Mpumalanga David Dabede Mabuza.
Deputy President Mabuza passed away today, Thursday, 3 July 2025.
On behalf of government and the nation, I offer my profound condolences to the late Deputy President’s wife, Mrs Mabuza, and the children.
I extend my condolences to Deputy President Mabuza’s friends and the people of Mpumalanga whom he served as Premier from 2009 to 2018, and previously as a Member of the Executive Council of Mpumalanga across a range of portfolios.
My thoughts are also with Deputy President Mabuza’s comrades in his political home, the African National Congress, where he was elected as the organisation’s Deputy President in December 2017.
During his service as Deputy President of the Republic, Deputy President Mabuza applied his leadership and mobilisation abilities to his role as the Leader of Government Business in Parliament; leading the South African National Aids Council; coordinating anti-poverty initiatives in the form of Public Employment Programmes, Integrated Service Delivery and Enterprise Development.
Deputy President Mabuza also represented South Africa on global platforms and consolidated relations between South Africa and its closest partners.
As Deputy President, he chaired the Cabinet Committees of Governance, State Capacity and Institutional Development (GSCID) as well as Justice, Crime-Prevention and Security (JCPS).
We are saddened today by the loss of a leader who was grounded in activism at the early stages of his political career and who came to lead our nation and shape South Africa’s engagement with our continental compatriots and the international community in his role as Deputy President.
The Former Deputy President deserves our appreciation for his deep commitment to the liberation struggle and to the nation’s development as an inclusive, prosperous, democratic state.
Further announcements will be made in due course on memorial arrangements and the honours with which the country will pay its final respects to the Former Deputy President.
