Conserving our natural heritage.

@endurancetry Good question.
Remove the ZAR 7.00 tax & levies and we still pay a much higher price.
Used to travel Dbn to Piet Retief in the 90's.
On my return, I'll pop into Swaziland to fill up because of the cheaper fuel.

@lula_leftist @niehaus_carl Oh my word.
Too many untrue comments and assumptions from you.
Trying to put me in a box that suites your narrative.
Not worth my time or discussion.
May God have mercy on your soul too.
Cheers.

[conservation_q @QWDS1961]

@lula_leftist @niehaus_carl Huh? Where did I reject any of the above?
Why do you just make assumptions? 🙈
Why put words in my mouth? 🙈
Why, why why??

Carl Niehaus celebrates a 'justified' brutal killing & rape of innocent women and children.
May God have mercy on his soul.
It's all I said.

If you don't hide behind excuses.
It can be achieved,!
Well done!
Proudly South African!

@Manero96010135 @tebogokhaas Yes we agreed on the reason for the failure.
From my perspective, it was not effective.
No matter what the reasons are, the people who should have benefited, did not.

@pasumarthyvijay @7official1 Our bowlers added 12 runs through wide balls perhaps?

[conservation_q @QWDS1961]

@Taki7705 Forgot to add necklacing to the violent portion.

[conservation_q @QWDS1961]

@Taki7705 If your question is politically biased.
Races - no
Race - yes
Some peacefully through civil discourse.
Others violently through bombs, riots, burning of schools etc.

[conservation_q @QWDS1961]

@Taki7705 Oh my word. 😔 Other races were not the topic of discussion.
To answer any way.
Just about the whole world contributed to end apartheid through sanctions etc.

[conservation_q @QWDS1961]

@Manero96010135 @tebogokhaas BEE was implemented.
Black population said they don't benefit.
Govt changed the name to BBBEE.
Broad Based Black population still not benefiting.

[conservation_q @QWDS1961]

@Manero96010135 @tebogokhaas Agreed.
Can we do better with better investment policies? I truly believe so.

Domestic investment?
Where is ISCOR? Thousands of labourer jobs? Gone.
DENEL? nearly run into the ground
SAA? Nearly gone
SAPREF? NATREF?
Jobs gone!

[conservation_q @QWDS1961]

@Manero96010135 @tebogokhaas Again, thanks for this discussion.
It helps me to understand your perspective.
Hopefully it helps you to understand my perspective.
We discuss differences & find common ground.
That's how we move forward.

[conservation_q @QWDS1961]

@Manero96010135 @tebogokhaas Where is Anglo American, Nissan, Good Year. Huge Foreign investors gone.

BEE & expropriation with, yes WITH compensation meant to do good. Did it do good? No,
The poor and needy are still where they were r 30+ years ago.
I blame the corrupt ANC, now using Trump as scapegoat.

[conservation_q @QWDS1961]

@Taki7705 Not what said or think.
Fact is, the ending of apartheid had overwhelming majority white support.
Contrary to what is said today, as if apartheid wants to be brought back by whites.
This because of a few stupid extreme comments.

[conservation_q @QWDS1961]

@Manero96010135 @tebogokhaas Agreed, the govt cannot absorb the majority.
Leaves us with the question...

What are the reasons inhibiting the private sector to create job opportunities?
Does the govt create a conducive environment for businesses to thrive without intervention?

[conservation_q @QWDS1961]

@Manero96010135 @tebogokhaas Was BBBEE not the tool designed to do exactly this? Empower the previously disadvantaged?
Is expropriation without compensation perhaps playing a role in foreign investment?
If I was a medium buss owner wanting to do buss in ZA, it will certainly stop me to invest.

[conservation_q @QWDS1961]

@kimheller3 Question is, who will ActionSa and the PA align with?
I guess their hate for Zille will push them to a minority ANC / EFF coalition.
Praying for outright victory for any of the opposition except EFF.

[conservation_q @QWDS1961]

@penuelist_ The silent middle...
Millions of people are at work now. Many of them working shoulder to shoulder, focused on our economy.
They are not on X.
It's them that will demonstrate in November that the division is not so large as what some influencers are trying to make it out.

[conservation_q @QWDS1961]

@penuelist_ Why are you continuesly harping on about racism?
I am truly convinced the vast majority of our population wants the same thing. Peace & prosperity for all.
Racism on X is rife because people keep on bringing it up.

The silent middle. Tbc
