Have the xenophobic attacks which have taken place in some parts of the country given refugees a voice bigger than those of Afro South Africans?
This country is in crisis when coming to refugees. Refugees
in South Africa have a serious problem I am not sure with who but I’ll tell you
this much its deep. I mean come on, since when do refugees have the right to
make demands such as where the government should take them? Really! refugees let
me just say this is not the time nor the place to be seeking your hearts
desires okay, the government of this country is neither Santa nor a servant of
God let’s just be realistic on that one okay the South African government
cannot be taking your demands and make them their top priority, speciously in
this time of the year where the government could be thinking about how South
African would be going about the following year. And I’m talking jobs,
improving our economy and making sure that people don’t lose their jobs next
year and looking into way for businesses not to lose equity, etc. and that is
what our government should be focusing on this time of the year. Not you.
This is what the government need to understand, xenophobic
attacks don’t just occur out of nowhere they happen because you keep on failing
your own over and over again then instead of them dealing with that they tend
to take those frustrations out on others, don’t get me wrong but who else can
they use as a punching bag rather than refugees because of their SMEs which are
not even registered. Can’t you see that it is because of the lake of the needs
which as South Africans happen to be experiencing that makes us look like we are
psychotics even thought we not and that always leads to bad publicity for the
entire country? Seriously some of them I’ve heard they want to go to Canada. I
personally don’t think that our government would be stupid enough to spend
South African Rands on refugees like that. No! Like seriously, hopefully they
don’t. I mean a trip to Canada sounds like a trip they might want to save for
or elsewhere besides their own countries.
But when I heard the news the first time the fact that they
were sleeping outside but forcefully broke in the facility pissed me off a bit.
But even after what they did the matter still went to court for their sake. Only
God knows for how long it will take and hearing that Canada is at the top of
their list as one of the countries they wouldn’t mind going to I was like come
on people... Canada really! Sigh-you mean to tell me that the government is
looking into spending way more that they could be spending by just returning
them back home where they belong? I get why they don’t want to go back to their
own countries but they shouldn’t make it look like them wanting to go to a
different country is South African government business the government is not
the one who told them to flee their own countries and end up in this one in the
first place, so it’s not. They can go to Canada by themselves and I don’t think
anybody would try to stop them at least not in South Africa. But now what needs
to happen is the government needs to put an offer in the table for refugees
that want to live the country. Offer them transport back to their own countries
and when they get there they need to make plans to go to Canada but not when
their still in South Africa.
But now I’m like whatever to this matter being in court,
don’t even want to know the final decision they’ll make because the is a chance
I might not like the outcomes of it and end up making a comment which some
people might have a problem with and I don’t mean to sound like I’m anti-other
Africans because I’m not.
