Fantastic story! Under a more responsible, honest government, the new South Africa should have had many more such stories to tell. Sadly the ANC will leave behind a legacy of greed, corruption and destruction. Nothing more. Well done to these divers and the leaders behind the project. Very inspiring!
What an inspiring story. Just goes to show that if you recruit the right person in the right way you'll find them. Best of all they were lured from crime to becoming the best they can be. Well done to the men who made this possible
Easy to find the poachers. They operate with impunity at houtbay harbour. Launching in the early evening in large rubber ducks. Most evenings. No lights on there boats or safety equipment. The poachers run the harbour.
They put my boyfriend in polsmore prison for 6 years for aberlone poaching, rapists and murderers don't even get that long in a maximum security prison 🙄
Nice good story all good and well. But only poachers and criminals getting opportunities to change their life's for the better and live their dreams... You don't qualify if your a unemployed, law abiding citizen begging for work the legal ways and still paying the same taxes rates and living costs and also just as unfortunate as the next or maybe more in this country or too much a guilty conscious and/or good hearted to turn to crime to get a chance to make life better... And wonder why else you don't qualify.
The banality that education is the answer, would be very uneducated. But 'the answer'? and please correct me if I'm wrong... Start farming these salty crustaceans. Then grant full lobster, crayfish and abalone farming & fishing rights to the PEOPLE! Who's ancestors have been surviving on the ocean for eons? But hey, what do I know?🤷♂️
We have such a unique community in the Western Cape!!! Well done guys. Proud of you!
Fantastic!!!! So happy to have watched this story!!! Thank you National department of public works!!!!!!!

Good news should also be shown .... 👍👍👍
So one thing that government has actually done right.
You see what happens when money goes where its supposed to??
Hard working man looking after his family and knew what was wrong and what was right.
SA needs more of these good stories.
If only we can get more investment + job opportunities to stop the scourge of crime..
These are the kind of programs we need in South Africa. Crime would subside a lot more with avenues to trade and earn a living
great to see them changing peoples lives
Swimming from Robben Island to Houtbay at night takes some courage.
A very beautiful story. S.africa has a lot of very talented hard working human beings. Who had their rights stolen by bee.
Support and employ the local community, they know best indeed
