What has become of South Africa.

-

It was very clear in the dark days of apartheid that we wanted a different and better society. One in which all people would be treated with dignity and respect; inequality would be eradicated or at least, seriously diminished; everyone would feel that they have equal opportunities to achieve their potential; everyone would feel safe, and enjoy the beauty of our country.
What we have seen since we have become a democracy has been almost the opposite.

I was one of those optimistic people who have always held out high hopes for our country, and in many ways I still do. But it is becoming more and more difficult to remain positive when you are surrounded by so much negativity.

Everyday there's a case of a father who killed his child(ren). A young girl who is no where to be found. Is this the South Africa we were fighting for?
Where did we go wrong as a country? Is the justice system of South Africa becoming worse and worse? What needs to be done? When will all this end?
We need to have a way to stop all this madness that is happening.  We need to protect our children and women.
It is up to us as men of South Africa to stand up and end this madness.  This is not the South Africa I want to grow up in. This is not South Africa I want my children to live in, where they will leave in fear.

She did her first degree at the Witwatersrand University, which she says she did not like doing. "The time I finished my matric, mining was one of the sectors which had many jobs, and studying geology made sense to me at that time," said Phaahlamohlaka. She says she wanted to help matriculants, not to choose courses they do not want and also to help those who do not have finances to pay for application and registration fees. A block of classrooms that Phahlamohlaka is working on. ...

The 2019 Matriculants of South  Africa are very optimis tic  about their final exams, which are to start on Wednesday 23 October 2019. English first Additional language is the first main Exam to be written by the class of 2019. They are approximately about 790 405 pupils who will be writing the 2019 national senior certificate(NSC). The government has always been behind the pupils from day one offering the support they needed. The Matric candidates were encouraged to take advantage of the opportunities that were available to them from the begin of the 2019 academic year so that they can develop themselves to be better citizens.
