South Africans Abroad (SAFFAs) Abandoned By ANC Regime! Some Even Stuck in Foreign Jails, Unable To Get Documents From SA Embassies or Home Affairs!

When perusing the many online groups for communities of South Africans abroad, it soon becomes clear that the one single biggest problem for SA Expats (SAFFAs), or just those visiting or  travelling abroad, is getting Documentation or Identification from SA Embassies (DIRCO) or even Home Affairs back home! In many cases this documentation is vital in order to travel or remain legally abroad. Yes, we all know, and joke, that South Africa is now a barely functioning failed state, but to be told in an official communication by an SA Embassy, that you would have to wait up to THREE YEARS for a birth certificate, is, to put it bluntly, criminal! The Embassy even went so far as to recommend asking family back home to do it for you! Remind us again why we have a “government” and pay taxes?

Suid- Afrikaners wat na buiteland reis, gemaan

Die departement van internasionale betrekkinge en samewerking het Dinsdag ʼn veldtog van stapel gestuur wat Suid-Afrikaners wat na die buiteland reis, aanmoedig om hulle deeglik te vergewis van die moets en moenies van die lande waarheen hulle reis.

Dit volg ná die onlangse voorval waarin 51 jong Suid-Afrikaanse onderwysers in China gestrand was. Die departement het gesê 49 van die 51 Suid-Afrikaners wat in Tsjangtsjoen in China gestrand was nadat hul paspoorte weens foutiewe visums deur die polisie afgeneem is, is terug in hul tuisland. Die ander twee Suid-Afrikaners is egter steeds in aanhouding.

Reginah Mhaule, adjunkminister van internasionale betrekkinge en samewerking, meen die voorval kon voorkom word indien die nodige inligting beskikbaar was. “Ons moedig dus mense aan om hulle behoorlik te verwittig van regulasies in die land wat hulle besoek.”

Chris Chetty, waarnemende hoof van die departement se afdeling vir konsulêre dienste, het ook bekend

A study of the world’s most dangerous tourist countries for women traveling alone reveals the good, the bad, the ugly and then all three in one at the top of the list, or rather bottom: South Africa, which stands out head and shoulders above countries like Brazil, Mexico, Iran, Morocco, etc. as the most dangerous tourist destination for solo women travelers. The “good” in South Africa’s “Good, Bad and Ugly, is it’s attitude towards women from a religious perspective, whereas all the Muslim countries, predictably, take top honours here… but shhh, don’t tell the liberal mainstream media, we would not want hard facts to get in the way of their fake news…
