Ramaphosa and Zuma’s missions

Ekonomiese plundering en rewolusie - alles word gekaap.  Verwys na die ANC se 1955 manifes.  Daar is geen staatsbeheerde organisasie wat nie al leeg geplunder of tot niet is nie, in die afgrond in bestuur sedert 1994.   Bewilliging van fondse kom uit die staatskas uit en dis leeg.    Hoe herstel mens so iets wat… Continue reading Ramaphosa and Zuma’s missions

Ramaphosa speech 16 December 2019

  Wat is Versoeningsdag dag eintlik - dit is betekenisloos vir die sprekers (die leier en president) wat die wet en orde vrye teuels gee en nie beheer uitoefen oor die land se misdadigers en terroriste nie, wat oor die grense wat oop is binnespel en onwettige immigrante binnelaat.  Waaroor moet daar versoening wees  en… Continue reading Ramaphosa speech 16 December 2019

Ramaphosa 16 Desember 2019

Die "leiers" van die kommuniste in die land, praat en sing met 'n gesplete tong - die EFF en ander na-doeners sing dieselfde liedere en maak dieselfde bokspringe.   Hoe ver kan enige sogenaamde leier daal as dit kommunistiese ideologie bevorder onder die mantel van "demokrasie" en met haat en rassisme, soveel burgers eenvoudig platgevee onder… Continue reading Ramaphosa 16 Desember 2019

Expropriation without compensation – Constitution

Die vorige kommentaar en insette was gelewer en dis nooit in ag geneem nie - die regering maak en doen net soos hulle lekker kry en soos dit hul behaag.   Verseker gaan die sogenaamde grondwet (kommunisties) wat al hoeveel maal gewysig is, weer gewysig word om hierdie internasionale reg van ons te ontneem.   Ons het… Continue reading Expropriation without compensation – Constitution

RBM – Rehabilitation (mining)
