You can never be lost when you don’t know where you want to be in the first place.
It is supposed to be simple, but it is not. We just have to decide what kind of a country we want to live in and then decide what kind of leadership will take us there.
So if we have not done that, we cannot continue to complain and because where we are is where we should be. If you do not know what we represent as a country, what we stand for, maybe you should sit down.
I am not saying I know also (i am sitting down), but one could say, it is unfair of me to expect things to just happen just because nje.
So if the President had been removed yesterday, would we have been closer to getting somewhere? Where though? We are having the wrong conversations and we seem to think we are ok.
Or maybe I missed something, what are we trying to become as a country, don’t even think about telling me about having less corruption or increasing self delivery if such is not Bonang type of English (OUR ENGLISH). Tell me something real.
It is like when you want to go on a trip, you don’t just wake up and go in whatever direction. You first decide where you want to go, when you want to be there and what will be needed for you to get there. So lets say we talking about our country, we have to decide where we want to be as a country, which can be defined within the economic, political and social spaces, but also decide on when would we want to get there. And then sit down and say, ok so, for us to get there we need to behave this way, we need these types of people, we need this type of education, we need this type of security, etc etc etc .
But us we have outsourced this to a few and year in year out we march on the streets demanding this that and the other. It is incorrect.
Here is what I think will happen especially since the blacks have proven to be incapable of sorting some of these things out. The guys who lost political power in 1994 are ready-ing themselves to “do something” about all this. I suspect they are actually. And since we all admit that they have the economic power, it means they have the means to cause divisions amongst us, and if you actually look closely, you will see it.
We have to do things differently, like really. I mean ask yourself. Since the announcement of the downgrades and the recession and all those nice things, what have you done differently? Do we even understand what it all means? It cannot be business as usual.
Are we trying to build this country?
