We seriosuly better be getting money back for this.

Raven you are fighting a loosing battle. I swear if I get a chance to live in Europe I am taking it. This country is a shit hole.

 

[sycogrim]

Imagine South African internet goes down during the soccer world cup final. Surely we'll have a backup for then.

HA.... that will be the day

 

[Tsar]

I don't know if this whole world cup is a good thing we are left with stadiums that will cost a shit load of money to keep maintained. THe only people who make money from this is fifa.

 

[Raven Gold]

I say this is gonna be the biggest mugging fest of tourists in history.

It creates hundreds of thousands of jobs. The real issues is... what will happen with those jobs when the tournament is over?

 

[Solitude]

That is what I am trying to say. And lynus watch what you say to me

 

[Raven Gold]

1: the stadiums are built, and are only ever going to be used once, and only once. Never again, ever.

2: That money and resources could have easily been used to feed the whole of africa for years!

3: Tourist mugging fest. So no foreigner will set foot here ever again.

Why coz the whole world cup is such a major deal for SA? Wake up and smell the BS. IF things DONT go as they should, which they wont coz SA has neither the infrastructure nor the capacity to deliver what a 1st world country can, then all this will serve to do is damage SA's image abroad, something our tourist industry can't afford.

People are blind to this and the crime is going to be ridicules. And we the tax payers are going to be paying out our asses on those stadiums.

Agreed did u watch carteblanche on sunday??? they actually spoke about Eishkom and the worldcup and they reckon they will have to take power from one of the cities just for games up here and in CT

 

[Angotull]

I just wish they started fixing the roads etc a bit earlier, when people do arrive, the stuff will still be half done. I foresee chaos.

 

[Lynus]

Tsar, or what?

Besides, random assumption.. "Oh, I don't think this will be good whatever..."

So, this improved transport system will dissapear after the World Cup?
Even though the 70000 people being employed for stadium construction are only temporary. Thats 70000 people who could be without food were it on for the World Cup.
The money comming into SA from tickets, tourism?
Showcasing our country in the biggest sports event worldwide?
Improved sporting infrastructure for the future?

These are all a few things, that are going to be bad for the country, yes?

Now I realise why I stopped visiting this site so regularly.. ignorant people who are always "right".

No i didn't but the fact that this country cant run properly when we dont have a few million extra tourist around does not bode well for when we do....

Classic

Yeh it pisses me off and the fact that they are not driving with coal and their trucks are not up to standard and the roads are kak etc... its just not acceptable by the government...
