Cape Town has always been Europe literally still a British Colony but it’s becoming more filled with white Americans who overstay like most Europeans in Africa already. White Americans are just joining in droves which is what I noticed in Botswana too. It won’t be noticed for years since other Africans as we know are the targets. From visiting Cape Town I notice that the local Africans can’t even live in decent neighbourhoods unless it’s one in a million because they also keep upper class areas “white” with gentrification. It’s literally Europe with a better aesthetic, better weather, cheaper property and better quality of life. It will only get worse as more from the West (Europe, America, Canada) flee to many nations outside and especially the East (Africa,Asia,Middle East and at times South America or Eastern Europe) to live decent lives outside of the West especially with remote work etc Africa is becoming gentrified especially Southern Africa while the West declines.

😂😂😂 exemptions for diaspora. How entitled you are. So diaspora can just come over, contribute nothing but the problems cited in the video. Let me bow for you king diaspora. The opposite is true, many diaspora had the chance to leave and gain wealth abroad while contributing to the countries’ brain drain, they should be taxed twice as much!

@dorisjones7511 You seem to be the delusional one Doris, that prejudice has got nothing to do with South African people. We are only correcting prejudice suffered by South Africans.

WONGEL, THIS IS VERY PAINFUL TO CONTINUE TO HEAR THESE TYPE OF STORIES OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN! Solution is to prioritize the exponential increase in HIGHLY SKILLED Black people in South Africa and throughout the entire African continent VIA INTENSIVE TRAINING/EDUCATION in computer coding, computer science, artificial intelligence via modification of the educational curriculum in the schools, community learning centers, etc.! IT IS A SKILLS ISSUE WHEREBY NON-BLACK PEOPLE WITH ADVANCED COMPUTER-RELATED SKILLS ARE TAKING ADVANTAGE OF THE COMPARATIVE ADVANTAGE THAT THEY HAVE IN TERMS OF ECONOMIC PURCHASING POWER! INDEED, THIS IS GENTRIFICATION! THE SOUTH AFRICAN GOVERNMENT APPEAR TO BE VIEWING THIS FROM THE PERSPECTIVE THAT THE NON-BLACK PEOPLE ARE GENERATING JOB OPPORTUNITIES FOR THE LOCAL BLACK PEOPLE! BUT, THE SOUTH AFRICAN GOVERNMENT SHOULD BE VIEWING THIS AS WHAT IS TO OCCUR THROUGHOUT AFRICA AS MORE AND MORE ARABS, ASIANS, INDIANS, LEBANESE, EUROPEANS, ETC. WHO ARE MORE EDUCATED AND HAVE A HIGHER AVERAGE INCOME THAN LOCAL BLACK PEOPLE ARE MIGRATING TO AFRICA IN DROVES TO CREATE INTER-GENERATIONAL WEALTH FOR THEM, BUY LAND AND CREATE BUSINESSES TO ENRICH THEMSELVES! IT IS NOT JOBS THAT THE BLACK PEOPLE IN AFRICA NEEDS! BLACK PEOPLE NEED TO OWN AND CONTROL BUSINESSES/INSTITUTIONS - SETTING THE FOUNDATION FOR INTER-GENERATIONAL WEALTH AND PARLAYING THIS ECONOMIC POWER TO POLITICAL POWER! AGAIN, THIS IS A SKILLS ISSUE AND DEMANDS THAT THE LOCAL BLACK GOVERNMENT INVEST EXPONENTIALLY IN THE EDUCATION OF ITS BLACK POPULATION AND CREATE INITIATIVES TO SPEED UP THE GAP IN EDUCATIONAL EXCELLENCE! ALL OVER AFRICA, THERE IS RE-COLONIZATION AS ARABS, ASIANS, INDIANS, LEBANESE, EUROPEANS, ETC. GAIN A FOOTHOLD IN VARIOUS INDUSTRIES! IN ESSENCE, AFRICA IS SEEN ALL OVER THE WORLD WHERE A NON-BLACK PERSON CAN MIGRATE TO AND ESTABLISH THEIR FORTUNE ON THE BACKS OF BLACK PEOPLE! THING IS, AFRICA IS OUR ANCESTRAL HOME! PLEASE BLACK PEOPLE, WAKE UP!!!

[@TanyaPowell-on8vn]

They should just charge the foreigners more and the local at a lower rate. Like in Cuba make a local dollar and a foreign dollar. Use the economics and start to regularize them and tax them and they don't just carry that but much more is coming with them.

According to the UN Global Equity and Climate Change Agenda (sustainability development goals) African countries are entitled to EVERYTHING that US people have, and the U.S. taxpayers are supposed to pay for it. Please send a note to the Sec. General, and tell him South Africa does not want anything from the West…it is gentrification and insulting! (That includes electricity grids). US taxpayers will be very relieved!! They are 33 trillion in debt. Thank you!❤

this is an immigration problem not a tax collection one.

[@DamienGWilson]

The Western tourists aren’t the ones visiting your country and committing crimes… that would be immigrants from other African countries. Western tourists aren’t the ones unable to support themselves who create a strain on the local government… that would be immigrants from other African countries. Western tourists aren’t the ones raising the prices of everything… that would be your greedy local businesses and fellow citizens who intentionally overcharge foreigners, which thereby raises the price for everyone. Stop blaming Westerners for your own problems. If Westerners all left South Africa and stopped visiting then you’d still have all the same issues and even more.
