Somalia’s are taking over

westcapenews.com

Our people should stop to complain about foreigners that are taking work, ladies, as well business. We as South Africans are not good in business. We do not have business initiative ideas. Our minds are still looking at employment opportunities not to take business initiatives. Most South Africans at university levels are studying courses that would be looking at getting employment. But looking at foreigners, most of them do business entrepreneurs, small business to start their initiative. To prove that foreigners are very good in business, Cape Town’s black townships shops are being occupied by Somalia’s. They are taking over to the people who had these businesses for more than ten years. Our people are renting out their business to Somalis to make money for them. The whole townships in the province is about to change to be Somalis business industries. On the other side, people are complaining these foreigners are taking over. We do not have business tolerance.

When I started to study in 2009, I was like a laughing story to my colleagues. I regret today that has contributed more to motivate me not to step backwards, but to move on. Since were staying together in the workplace, so they know what I was doing. After work I have to drive to school, seeing my colleagues relaxing drinking some beers and braying. I sometimes felt like to abandon school, but since there were lots of talks already, that would make more laughing story about me, I was therefore forced to continue with my studies. Some of the comments were, we had all have the same ideas, but the situation does not allow us, as the results I will also experience the same problem. Others commented that part – time is taking very long and is boring. But today, all those questions are still remains unanswered and I have my degree. Today I am congratulating myself for the efforts and initiative that I have undertaken.

This is the most powerful area that needs business techniques skills in order to achieve a highly standard, this might includes customer services skills and applied in corporate perspective, most these are basically practice by private organisations, while government departments does not effective practice these business skills. The reasons behind these, government are rendering services delivery. There are not rushing for targets, no competition as well. Although according to Civil servants and Public administration policy, Patho Pele principles should be effectively implemented at all state departments. Comparing with private sector, these skills are placed at the centre of the organization for excellence services and are aware that organisations are focusing on that to gain more customers. Private sectors are competing to improve customer services on daily basis, that how they make money.

South Africa’s future President Hellen Zillie has show some positive move towards the rebranding of the Democratic alliance. Since DA has been associated with the old apartheid government, when Zillie took over as the first woman leader of the organisation has implemented transformation policies as well as rebranding of the organisational logo. I also think the fact that she did work as journalist has help an organisation to make develop creativity ideas and innovations towards change. This also has been seen by the fact that, an organisation is showing a good progress towards governing the province as the results; Cape Town has won various awards which includes World Capital Design and so on. There are an increasing number of memberships throughout to all provinces. Recently, DA has won a ward councilor at Nyanga community settlement area, there ward was original rule by ANC. There are also a growing number of black people who are joining DA at critical positions, which include a DA candidate Mazibuko who is currently serves as a DA representative in Parliament.

Over the past few months South Africa experienced a wave of protest actions across to all provinces. Many of this protest have turned to an act of violence and criminal activities among them exploiting the situation. In various areas, the police had to use force in order to calm the situation. Police action includes arrests for public violence, loathing, and various crimes. Basically, the main reason for these protests are discontent with delivery of basic needs municipality services such as water, electricity, toilets, unemployment, poor infrastructure, lack of houses and high rate of crime. These are the outcomes of political promises during the election campaigns that all this problems would be addressed should the new government be in power. It is very important to be specific to describe the reasonably limited scope of the current service delivery protest in South Africa as an indication solely to social – political instability. There is a need to be taking into account that, if the current situation carry on as an issue for long time possible developing of rebellion against government will prevails. As much as police might tried their utmost to stabilize protests to maintain peace by enforcing law, this will not serves as a solution to the problem. The problem here does not lie to policing, but to resolving to social economic situation that is prevailing in various societies. An early involvement to government in relation to the situation and effective functioning and service delivery is crucial.
