The decay and destruction the ANC caused is immeasurable ---- wherever a great nation ruled and was taken over by non Europeans ( can't mention the other description otherwise its racist) there is destruction on a biblical scale ---- all over Africa ---- and south Africa followed suit ----- what a tragedy that the abolishment of "apartheid" has brought upon ALL inhabitants of this country

Was born in the 80s, Johannesburg. I loved that place. But now, later in life, I understand why my mom made the decision to leave the country in the mid 90s. As a child you don't see the changes. Adults do. My mom had a tough time in our new environment, especially as a biracial single mother, but we made it. Even though my mom still misses SA today, she no longer has a reason to go back since my gran passed away 2 years ago. I haven't been back since the 2000s.
