My hometown! Born & bred there.. although in apartheid my infant carer was a white’mother’ together with her twins while my mom was the houeskeeper as she was a young bride & her knowlege of cooking was just cooking an egg !! I met the twins again when they had a trip to SA for their 75th Bday..unfortunately the last one alive has dementia now.😔

White people built such an incredible civilization❤ clean streets, no graffiti on the buildings no trash on the sidewalks a stable currency a thriving economy, agriculture, industry, plenty of electricity and air conditioning, pure running water and then everything started to crumble. I wonder what happened

@selcukcilek555 because we live in a dangerous country😂 what a stupid question. When the police fail you you have to organize your own security. Not only that but you have any idea how many blacks and indians live in the same estates? And not only that most of the whites in south africa live in normal suburbs or in the country side😂. You implying that because there still exists poverty a city is somehow fake is absurd. By that logic if someone built a fence around their house in new york or sydney its somehow is only a facade of america or Australia is ridiculous

@@selcukcilek555 And yet isn't it ironic that the same colonial powers imposed the debilitating economic and diplomatic quarantine upon the apartheid regime that eventually brought it down. Also regardless of your rich vocabulary, factually Cape Town is much more dirty and unsafe today.

@@seenoevil85 It's not ironic. Those colonial powers you mention did it when there was no way out because the SU supported the ANC. But what is dirt and unsafeness.? When you need to massacre people in another part of the city to keep another part "clean" then this is colonial filth at it's finest.

I feel the same way about South Africa now, black people being handed jobs because they are the "desired demographic" as per AA, BEE, BEA etc.., not based on merit but skin colour. I had to emigrate from SA to find employment because I was too white.
