Please visit @book_capital in Melville and get a copy of Native Merchants. From the book you'll learn about Mkhwanazi and Nembula who started a sugar mill as far back as 1864 producing tons of sugar. In 1867 they sent their sugar to the Paris Exhibition in France.
Broke perfume this morning as I was exiting, did such decent work in cleaning the glass๐.
Time has shown me that, the small little incidents that take up your time just before you leave house are aligning your day to the precise moments- who you bump into and who you miss๐ค

Government of South Africa notes the USA Executive Order
The government of South Africa has taken note of the latest executive order issued by President Trump. It is of great concern that the foundational premise of this order lacks factual accuracy and fails to recognize South Africa's profound and painful history of colonialism and apartheid.
We are concerned by what seems to be a campaign of misinformation and propaganda aimed at misrepresenting our great nation. It is disappointing to observe that such narratives seem to have found favour among decision-makers in the United States of America.
It is ironic that the executive order makes provision for refugee status in the US for a group in South Africa that remains amongst the most economically privileged, while vulnerable people in the US from other parts of the world are being deported and denied asylum despite real hardship.
We reiterate that South Africa remains committed to finding diplomatic solutions to any misunderstandings or disputes.
