@avianca ¿Cuál es su política con respecto a los clientes Gold - en mi caso, categoría Platinum - de Star Alliance? ¿Siendo ustedes miembros de la alianza, no deberían tratar a los clientes Platinum conforme a las normas establecidas por Star Alliance?

[Boaventura Monjane @boamonjane]

Nonsense! The far right cooked up a fake case to deceive Trump — and he knows it’s just a tool to spread lies. There’s no “white genocide” or land grabs in SA. It’s pure propaganda.
Strong solidarity with the South African government and President @CyrilRamaphosa.

@trtafrika You are right.

Mozambique is in the midst of a civil war between impoverished people and the government. Where are UN, the European Union, the IMF, the World Bank, the African Union, SADC, and the so-called moral reserve to put an end to this situation? Complicity or collective cowardice?

I have been a victim of profiling by @MTNSouthAfrica because I am a foreigner. My application, submitted at MTN Cavendish, Cape Town, for a contract has been pending for over a month. It normally takes 48 hours to be approved. This is unacceptable and something must be done!

A must read!

Here's the introduction.
