Cultural differences between SAns are huge. In my opinion the conflict of irreconcilable cultures is not well understood. That complicates the advancement of democracy, equality, non-racialism and non-sexism which are constitutional imperatives ito s1 of the Constitution, 1996.

@RediTlhabi There is no agreement between Zim and SA that South Africa must supply medical treatment to Zimbabweans. Medical Treatment Visas issued ito s17 of the Immigration Act, 2002 are required and it is a serious contravention of ss49(4) of the same act to help undocumented immigrants.

"We don't know what the attitude of Home Affairs is. Is it just to get them out? Kicking them out of the country won't even make a dent in our unemployment situation." Think clearly please. It will be a start to do what must be done for SANS Mr Papanfus.

@Richard_Spoor "No, the main reason Zimbabweans are not applying for work visas is because even if they have worked in a job the last 10 years, Home Affairs will refuse their application." In other words their unwanted presence in SA exacerbates social ills. They must go home and stay there.

@GPMadamSpeaker Totally unacceptable. Time to rope SARS in. They cannot be a law unto themselves somehow believing they are elevated above the civil service and can do as they please and in the process ignore ss 10(1)(a) of the of Public Service Act, 1994

Don't make your problems ours in South Africa. We also have huge challenges relating to homelessness, poverty inequality and unemployment. And the humanitarian crises is in South Africa not Zimbabwe.

@City_Press No regard/sympathy for the humanitarian crises of record high unemployment, poverty, inequality, hunger, disease and homelessness in SA that cannot care for its own people. How on earth can we be expected to care for Zimbabweans with their own fast growing democratic country?

@SowetanLIVE Immigrants interfering with our domestic politics are out of line. He must practice politics in Zimbabwe and he apparently does not know it. Seeking undue public sympathy in SA will not help him to win elections in Zimbabwe.

@BreesAnna @RWMaloneMD This is huge. I sincerely hope that those forcing vaccinating on children without their or their parent's informed consent, with an experimental drug not yet sufficiently tested, will be held legally and financially liable for unavoidable damages according to @RWMaloneMD .

@just4034v @AllAboutAyanda The obvious and unacceptable victimization of Caster Semenya by world sport must be rationally explained. Both race and nationality may have been contributing factors if it was not the overriding considerations. We need to get to the bottom of this discrimination.

Everybody knew that the ZEP will terminate on 31 Dec 2021. The holders had enough time to prepare for that day. What is concerning to me is that you and others are creating false expectations that they will be able to stay through opportunistic litigation and political pressure.

And so that system endured for over a decade and ZEP holders built lives and homes here, had children. Then in November 2021, the government announced with little notification and no consultation with ZEP-holders that the permits would lapse. ZEP-holders could migrate to other…

@City_Press I doubt this person qualified for a business visa in terms of section 15 of the Immigration Act, 2002. The informal sector and small/medium businesses in SA belongs to the people of the country. Investors are the exceptions.

@News24 @BISouthAfrica "A lot of countries offer job seeker options and South Africa does not anymore." Rubbish. SA is assisting the rest of Africa by granting study permits. The idea is that after completion of their studies they should return to their respective countries and help develop Africa.

"The settlement means that the PIC and the GEPF by extension, will have locked in losses of at least R2.5-billion in this controversial investment." Stealing from pensioners should carry a huge penalty but nobody will go to prison. Unbelievable but true.

Enforcing immigration laws professionally and authorities removing undocumented foreigners from society for deportation cannot be a threat to "peace". The contrary is truer. Undocumented immigration is destabilizing SA society plagued with high unemployment/inequality/poverty.

If over 90% of all contracts to #Eskom and other parastatals are given to white companies and if the management at Eskom and other parastatals is still predominantly white, then who are the people who are corrupting parastatals? Obviously the white suppliers & managers, right?

Zimbabweans are causing a humanitarian crises in South Africa. The issuing of work permits to foreigners on demand is highly contentious. For every foreigner working there is a South African that cannot work and that is obviously unacceptable for rightminded South Africans...

@dailymaverick “They have routinely been denied access to the health care services, or they are pressured into signing acknowledgements of debt and undertakings to pay for services.” S17 of the Immigration Act, 2002 is clear. SA taxpayers cannot supply free health care to other countries.
