Not surprising. South Africa is just on a continuous decline due to government corruption. People will just keep emigrating elsewhere until it’s another impoverished country. So sad because SA used to be pretty wealthy.

I’ll never forget a story of a co-worker a while back. His father was from South Africa and he had a fenced house there. Because burglary is very very common there. One day he came home and his remote didn’t work because the cables of the fence were cut. As soon as he left his car a couple of burglars surrounded him and told him to hand everything over.
Crime is now mostly the reason why white South Africans are migrating to Europe. It’s getting worse and worse there each year.

Interesting. I recall there being a Boer republic in the East so I thought there’d be more Whites
