Over in that other app, Americans are bragging about underpaying their “insanely talented” South Africans. Wild.

Remember kids, South Africa has three research bases in the Sub-Antarctic and Antarctica. The SA Ahgulhas 2 is also responsible for the discovery of Endurance, a ship that sank more than 100 years ago and was found at a depth of 3km.
South African scientists outperform heavyweights Princeton, Oxford and Stanford in Antarctic research dailymaverick.co.za/article/…

IShowSpeed on why he did 3 streams in South Africa when only 1 stream was planned 🇿🇦 “I went to South Africa thinking it would be just one stream. Just one. That was the plan. But South Africa shocked me. Everything about it the energy, the people, the love it caught me completely off guard. Cape Town gave me one of the best streams I’ve ever done in my life. Ever. And after that moment, we said, nah… one stream isn’t enough. We have to give something back. So we planned another stream not for us, but to reward the country for how insane they showed up. And then Johannesburg happened. We didn’t expect it to be as good as Cape Town. We didn’t expect it to match it… or even beat it. But it did. It was unreal. The love was overwhelming. We actually wanted to stay longer do more days, more streams but the tour had to continue. And I’ll say this forever: South Africa isn’t just one of the best countries I’ve streamed in Africa… it’s one of the best countries I’ve streamed in the entire world.”

On what basis do we approve or reject budgets & reports if we haven’t gathered the facts ? As ActionSA, we choose to always act in the interest of the most vulnerable, the many communities plagued by crime and corruption. Oversight reveals why our safety is compromised…

Equity means ensuring everyone is given a fair opportunity, rather than the same opportunity. As visualised below. It’s not communism

On 9 July 1987, Ashley Kriel answered the door to his room, thinking that the men outside were municipal workers. Thirty-seven years ago the South African apartheid police murdered the 20-year-old activist. #Nojustice @MaengereFilms @alvinbotes @GaytonMcK #Youth #Kriel

The SA gov must reciprocate! Even if we allow others to enter SA visa free, they must pay the equivalent in fees their countries are expecting us to pay! Maybe as a tourist levy and get all of SADC on board. @RonaldLamola @ClaysonMonyela @alvinbotes thejournal.ie/nationals-bots…

Voted today in Doha, Qatar 🇿🇦🇶🇦. Great colourful turnout - police didn't allow us to take selfies or videos outside the embassy so this Google Pic will have to do. Can we organise a new flag it's looking a bit sad. @IECSouthAfrica @ClaysonMonyela @DIRCO_ZA

Factually incorrect. Simply NOT true. Read @BDliveSA. Shell is NOT exiting 🇿🇦 but selling noncore downstream businesses like Petrol stations. They're doing this in other global markets too. They're STAYING in 🇿🇦 & maintaining upstream businesses. 🇿🇦 remains an attractive market as the biggest economy in Africa.
❗️Shell has become the latest major firm to leave South Africa under the ANC. Thousands of jobs are at risk because of ANC-EFF policies. Vote for investment. Vote for jobs. Vote DA. Visit rescuesa.org.za for the DA's solutions to #RescueSA.
