Just to prove the point, today (27/10/2008) the two top stories on IOL read:
1)
“Watching his father shot dead in front of him, a teenage boy, his mother and his brother, then watched as armed men ransack their home.”

2)
What are the politicians doing about it? They are building their kingdom:
“Changing your allegiance and getting swept up by the momentum of the breakaway ANC faction is something ANC members will regret, says senior party member Cyril Ramaphosa.”

What about the people who were brutally murdered this weekend!??! Shouldn't you be more concerned about them than losing your power base?? You are still in power, you know. You can still do something about the situation in this country!! Then it will not matter how many fat-cats desert you, you will win the hearts and the votes of the people!!!
When you tell anyone you are leaving the country they always ask you why! Emigration is not a task you take on lightly and a number of reasons contribute to the final decision to pull up ones roots and start over somewhere else. This blog details the factors that contributed to my decision to leave South Africa.
Read from the bottom up (i.e. the earliest entry to the most recent).
