Hi everyone! It’s me Setshaba! Thank you to everyone for watching the interview. You are more than willing to ask me more questions and I will answer them to the best of my abilities!

[@indriadrayton1132]

To Mr. Stetshabba, I see so many racist comments from white South Africans. What legal means do you have against that? Also, I have seen posts about underage rape towards girls in South Africa and Lesotho. Your take on this....

[@endelanibanda6339]

Are u now adapted to the environment, the food, culture etc...

[@unkelchubbz8142]

indria drayton One of the greatest gifts and curses in South Africa is freedom of speech. People are able to be as racist as they can be and face little to no repercussions. However recently racists have been getting into trouble for their actions so things are changing in regard. Also with the rape allegations, majority for them are true. South Africa is not a safe place for most women. It’s a sad reality but it’s true.

[@unkelchubbz8142]

[@fdmtearn9784]

Another excellent video Ranzo! Many lessons ideas and nuggets to take away from Setshaba! Its always great to hear from many of your guests who clearly reflect the synchronicity of a persons values and where they are going with their life! Setshaba is clearly a model of this, your great attitude will take you anywhere on the planet! I notice you have been sending a bit more stronger message of encouraging people to reach for their dreams. I believe you hardly need a stronger message than those inherent in your interviews. At some point if something is for someone the penny will drop when they hear the thing that moves them! Keep up the Good work.

The cab experience reminds me of Singapore... I was walking around on Lunar New Years, had a blast even though I was alone. When it was time to go home, every taxi passed me up, even though I was at a taxi queue. A few would stop and ask where I was going, and oddly, they were all "going to the west side" instead. It wasn't until a party of white people came up and waited that a cab stopped to pick them up... and they offered it to me instead because they knew I had been standing there for a long time! I was highly grateful for the gesture... but still a bit pissed. Otherwise, I had nothing but great times on my week in Singapore. Definitely want to go back!

[@TheAlizwa]

Why do people have to stay in the countries they are born in ? There are many people from many countries that immigrate to other countries so why must Africans stay in their countries? Hell isnt America built off of immigrants, people who left their own countries, some by force but most by choice ?It’s a big world out there and everyone has the right to travel and experience other places and cultures, they also have the right to fall in love with those places and decide to live there. If you want to stay in the country that you were born in then that’s your choice , so respect other people’s choices.

I am seeing a lot of racist comments as scrolling through some comments. Isn't it stupid to complain about racism while you making racist comments towards Koreans? Yes we are all guilty of being racists. Difference is someone being downright straight racist and someone being racist hiding behind internet commenting sections. I was watching this video because my ex wife is black and my son is of course half black. As I believe any form of discrimination and prejudice is wrong, I feel sad how people are ignorant when it comes to racism. What you are doing now is racism as well. As I always hear complaints from Korean Americans how black and Latinos in the state are downright racists even worse than white people. Your shit is not better than mine.. it is all shit and needed to be thrown away. Let's educate ourselves. Racism in any form is wrong. Yes we Asians need to change as you people need to change

Im Korean, Thats not true. Maybe that "White" girl told you that for a reason. Maybe she didnt want you to go, or have a negative view of Koreans. Korean people are not "Racist",. We're more HONEST. We dont speak with fake smiles or words intent to hurt. I live in America but visit Korea. I sometimes forget how honest Korean people speak. And I get "offended" sometimes> Ex. Your Shirt doesnt look good on you". But theres no Malice or Hate behind it. Do you understand? White people have called Koreans "Racist", Black People have called Koreans "Racist", Other ASIANS have called Koreans "Racist". But ask people who have LIVED there. Its the Culture. Its more straight forward. It has NOTHING to do with Race. Dont let that stop you. YOU sound like a nice person. Korea will be a Better place with people like you there. And personally, I DONT like what she said to you. If anything, SHE doesnt belong anywhere among Koreans. Never believe what someone says about another. And judging from your name, there is quite a large Mid Eastern/Arabic population that live in Korea. And MANY more visit. And Many Koreans visit the Mideast, Turkey, Central Asia. Algeria, Morrocco etc. Did you know the word Korya came from Persia. I was at Jeju do Island on vacation. I saw a family from Saudi Arabia, their mother and daughters had on their traditional clothing on. I spoke to them for awhile, theyve been to Korea 3x before. If anything, its WHITE people that spread the most lies about EVERYBODY else. I hope My words mean more than your "Friends". I think she is jealous that you maybe more welcomed than her. I hope this helps.( Im still really bothered what she said to you).

The guy in the red shirt has amazing eye contact. The guy in the yellow shirt has no eye contact at all. Eye contact is everything? It is whether someone trust you or willing to do something with you.

in south African traditional cultures eye contact is seen as disrespect

We don’t look our elders in the eyes. We keep our gaze lowered as a sign of respect. It’s Nguni culture.

In Southern Africa, where I come from, eye contact is one of the highest level of disrespect especially if you are talking to someone older than you. Eye contact is regarded as confrontational. So, relax mate, it's cultural.

qolspony, I guess it is amazing to you and seen as good by you. But be mindful that we are all not a homogeneous group that must behave in a way that is only approved by you. Try to educate yourself and understand the cultures of other nations. That way the world can embrace your shortcomings.
