Suid-Afrikaner vertel om in Australië te boer is taai

Boerdery in Australië is taai en jy moet op jou eie werk. Jy moet alles self doen. Plase is duur en dit maak dit amper onbereikbaar vir Suid-Afrikaners. Dit is die grootste struikelblok. As jy bereid is om vir ’n Aussie te boer, is jy hoog in aanvraag.

Só sê Theo van Niekerk, ’n gewese Suid-Afrikaner wat in Excelsior op skool was en aan die Universiteit van die Vrystaat gestudeer het. Hy werk al 18 jaar as landboukundige in Australië en spesialiseer in grondvrugbaarheid en plantvoeding.

Hy werk met Aussie- en gewese Suid-Afrikaanse boere wat nou daar boer.

Netwerk24 het Van Niekerk om kommentaar genader oor die politieke en diplomatieke bom wat gebars het oor Australië wat ’n hand na Suid-Afrikaanse boere uitgereik het weens die planne om grond te onteien sonder vergoeding.

Van Niekerk sê daar is nie so baie Suid-Afrikaanse boere wat plase in Australië gekoop het nie. Hy ken net ses sulke boere, maar daar is baie Suid-Afrikaners wat vir die Aus

Suid-Afrikaanse gesin kry trekpas uit Nieu-Seeland

’n Suid-Afrikaanse gesin wat sedert 2008 in Nieu-Seeland woon, moes ten spyte van ’n petisie wat duisende mense onderteken het, die land verlaat omdat hul seun ’n chroniese niertoestand het.

Netwerk24 het vroeër berig die Nieu-Seelandse owerhede weier die Von Metzinger-gesin burgerskap omdat hul 15-jarige seun, Ethan, met fase-vier-urine-terugvloeiing gediagnoseer is.

Ethan is sonder kleppe in sy urinebuis, wat urinevloei beheer, gebore en die Nieu-Seelandse regering beskou die toestand as ’n las op die gesondheidstelsel.

Ethan se broer, Travis (18), het vroeër vandeesmaand ’n petisie op Change.org begin wat intussen deur meer as 30 000 mense onderteken is.

Die Nieu-Seelandse owerhede het egter ten spyte van wye ondersteuning die twee broers en hul ouers, Steven en Joan, die trekpas gegee.

Die familie kon nie dadelik vir kommentaar bereik word nie, maar Ethan se pa het aan die webwerf Stuff gesê die Nieu-Seelandse immigrasie-owerheid het noo

We’re running out of whites – Half a million white South Africans have left the country

About half a million white South Africans have left the country in the past three decades, and Stats SA estimates that a further 112 740 will emigrate in the next five years.

The white population is also ageing as younger people are mostly the ones who go, leaving their parents behind.

Population growth estimates show that the white population declined by 22 250 people, from 4.52 million in 2016 to 4.49 million in 2017. Over the same period, the total population increased by 900 000 to 56.62 million.

Frans Cronjé of the Institute of Race Relations said the white population structure resembled an hourglass after 1994, when many between the ages of 20 and 40 emigrated. Since then, the bottom and top parts of the hourglass have shrunk, because the white people who remained had fewer children.

Though Stats SA couldn’t say why whites were leaving, emigration agencies believe political instability, crime and uncertainty are reasons cited for leaving. Emma Wald

100,000 Whites flee anti-white South Africa as over ten times more Africans arrive from Africa, DESPITE “xenophobia”

An estimated total of 95,158 whites have left South Africa since 2011, according to a new Statistics SA report released on Thursday.

According to the 2015 mid-year population estimates, in the same period 1,067,937 Africans and 40,929 Asians migrated to South Africa.

The figures took into account total departures and total arrivals over the period.

Statistician-general Pali Lehohla, speaking at the release of the 2015 mid-year population estimates in Pretoria, suggested that while Stats SA had not done any migration studies, it could be assumed the estimates were influenced by employment opportunities.

“It can be assumed and working from theory, migrants tend to go where there is employment and looking at the age structure of Gauteng, you can conclude reasonably well it’s because of the supposed job opportunities that are there, that migrants are coming in,” he said.

Touching on white migration, Lehohla said there was a trend among white children,
