Just like the apartheid gov took care of only their own, the ANC takes care of it’s own. It’s not a race thing domkop, it’s a corruption thing. Both parties are grossly corrupt, you’re just happy to defend the one that represented your skin colour.
And the responsibilities of the governments where these economic migrants come from? Surely we cannot be responsible for other people. We have enough issues ourselves
and these NGO's are often foreign or foreign funded - why must the city provide accommodation to illegal foreigners as well? It's a loop of disater and Mashaba was on the right path of taking action.

If I may ask Ms, Shongwe, Does this goverment tell you that it has enough money to build houses for so many people who are poor in this country? May we 🛐🇿🇦and our Folks who passed away and all those who got hurt.

So this lady from human rights contradict herself she talks about this buildings are not suitable for people to leave on but they don't want people to be evicted unless the is alternative place then talks about those buildings being demolished.
My father was on Carte Blanche in early 90's and he literally said this will become major issues. It was the episode about ANC stealing from the RDP housing funds and screwing over the private businesses (like my father's at the time) who were set to build RDP housing for the people. He was silenced for speaking out against the ANC (and for appearing on Carte Blanche, anonymously) it completely ruined his livelihood. He was blacklisted by the banks under ANC orders, which made it difficult for him to continue his business... he went under because he had to pay his workers out of his own pocket waiting for the ANC's funds as was promised at the, but that was the early days before people like all South Africans now know how corrupt the ANC would become and the funds were shared with cronies and not the people. These unbelievable stresses eventually got to my dad, which killed him. RIP dad 😢and F the ANC
We need to look at ourselves in the mirror and take responsibility for our actions. We do NOT have an ANC problem in South Africa, we have a voting electorate problem. With great power comes great responsibility. Accept responsibility for your actions, this is our own fault.
It is not a lack of housing again ANC you are supposed to look after your country's people first so all people that in South Africa ILLEGALLY should be deported back to their country SOUTH AFRICANS should get first option for HOUSING you cannot take care of your COUNTRY'S PEOPLE so WHY ALLOW THE POOREST OF POOR INTO THE COUNTRY
It's because of all the foreign people that are in our country they must be deported if they not having any documents. The tax payers must pay for everything that they want in South-Africa thats why they coming here.They bring the whole family here recieved R350 make use of hospitals and clinics thats why the the people must wait so lanog if they go to clinic or hospital.
The film Jerusalema about this came out in 2008. Stories about hijacked buildings where the owner had fled are much older than that. The crooks in power have no interest in fixing this because they make money from it. Disgusting
But if NGOs really care about people who live in these buildings, do they really come and see the living conditions?? Isn't that a violation of human rights?
You see the problem is they would have no where to go which is what the NGO’s are saying. Which can be said to be a bigger “problem” than poor living conditions.

I never use to blame the government before I moved from home South Africa to another country and I was always focusing on people/us degrading our own country. The exposure that I now possess, with no doubt the leading party is a disgrace. You can't be in power for this long with not even a single government department running smoothly.
They don’t do their work and are always surprised and on a reactive strategy, in fact the entire ANC Government doesn’t know anything about delivery of services.
I don't think the buildings should be demolished bit rather be renovated and rented out to youth that is on need of offices and spaces to run businesses but lacking funds. For instance, they can pay rates, electricity and water but not pay rent. Like the RDP structure but created for youths to have business offices because the issue of South Africa is youths sitting unemployed with the necessary skills but without the capital or being inaccessible to your market. The CBD is a place where people should be going to do business, not squat in hijacked and unregulated buildings.
What a sad day in South Africa this should have never had happened and the problem should be on the anc government that has failed all the citizens of South Africa because of the corrupt officials that are opened to bribery to self enriching
And this is exactly what will happen to ALL houses, apartments, properties... if expropriation takes place! Even if the government becomes custodial of everything. This is what will happen!! Truth! Yes Mr R...a wake up call indeed...but not in the way I think you meant...though I'm no longer sure you even know what a wake up call even means😢
No subsidies, there are still many empty buildings, start fixing one, move people there make sure the structures are in place that slum lords cannot take over. Then move to the building that now should be empty, fix it up and move on to 1000 buildings
Some of theses buildings can be renovated and be occupied by tenants or companies to generate tax for the country, to develop the city, which would increase the value of the rand and increase jobs for the people.
Who do you think is gonna pay. Its a buiding full of shacks. They dont have money because of our current money hungry goverment. The anc must take resonsibility they caused this.

The main problem that the government needs to pay more focus into, is the high influx of illegal or undocumented foreign nationals. There are those who use these kinds of opportunities to get the RDP houses while South Africans who are entitled of receiving the RDP houses get nothing.
You and your people are to Blame for this countries downfall so anybody with the type of surname you have has lost all credibility....this B.e e is full of people that have jobs that don't deserve it
@@metalcake2288 Nothando Shongwe is advocating for it in the video; insisting that the occupiers be provided with alternative accommodation, in the meantime people who haven't hijacked any buildings have been on waiting lists for decades.
This is a very sensitive subjects especially to none South African citizens, as they feel like this subject is directed at them. I hope that this is not the case here because I know for a fact that most South Africans would not even bother asking such questions because they witness this problem every day. There are foreign nationals with false SA identities who are currently living in the RDP houses. It is very easy this process in this country, all you need is money.
Its not only in Joburg that this deplorable practise is in the order of the day, but in about every city or town in S.A. The tip of the iceberg is discovered.

With an open border policy, this will only get worse.
JHB is a slum
Foreigners must go home Christmas is over we re tired 😮😮😮😮
how is people being allowed to hijack a building in the first place? that means everybody in the city center is involved in a crime of some sort.
The main problem that the government needs to pay more focus into, is the high influx of illegal or undocumented foreign nationals. There are those who use these kinds of opportunities to get the RDP houses while South Africans who are entitled of receiving the RDP houses get nothing.
You and your people are to Blame for this countries downfall so anybody with the type of surname you have has lost all credibility....this B.e e is full of people that have jobs that don't deserve it
When has that happened?
@@metalcake2288 Nothando Shongwe is advocating for it in the video; insisting that the occupiers be provided with alternative accommodation, in the meantime people who haven't hijacked any buildings have been on waiting lists for decades.
How can an illegal foreigner get an RDP??
This is a very sensitive subjects especially to none South African citizens, as they feel like this subject is directed at them. I hope that this is not the case here because I know for a fact that most South Africans would not even bother asking such questions because they witness this problem every day. There are foreign nationals with false SA identities who are currently living in the RDP houses. It is very easy this process in this country, all you need is money.
Its not only in Joburg that this deplorable practise is in the order of the day, but in about every city or town in S.A. The tip of the iceberg is discovered.
Gov don't care. Simple. They forgot it already
R1200 for a bed. Yes it is in the suburbs, come to Florida Lake. Imagine what could be done if that building was run properly
That fact that this building was owned by the city, you know if it was a private building charges would be brought forward
First, prevent hijacking of buildings. Other stuff the lawyer mentioned is obvious, but not the solution to such tragedies from happening again.
These human rights activist always don't have solutions. They prevent problems from being solved
These journalists / ladies are pure class . I tend to be a very critical American. But they are ace ❤
Gov dont care
Thabo Mbeki is a living Legend... That man said ANC will loose the Western Cape... That will affect other big metropolitans... 10 years later what happened?
NGO's are just as resposible for this, seeing they fight the process all the way. SERI big problem NGO.
They work with the PIE act (which must be repealed) plus some plainly daft rulings from the courts.
