Thai cooking for Africa

This is why Africa will never work. Recently, this week to be exact the Thai PM Samak Sundaravej is being urged to resign over a cookery course that he was presenting  on TV and receiving money.Just to add, there was also rioting in the streets.

 The dispute arises over the fact that the PM may not receive any monies whilst he is running the country other than the salary that he receives as a civil servant.

Now, ridiculous as it sounds to some it goes to prove the level or standard that some countries expect of their leaders especially when it comes to TRANSPARENCY and a word the ANC really have difficulty spelling.. H-O-N-E-S-T-Y. Two little words.

Now travel over to the south of Africa and what do we have? A president who is in eternal denial and who courts a corrupt b*stard like Mugabe. And a future president who, as explained on an earlier blog is up on corruption, fraud, racketeering and laundering charges. 

Now that he has done away with the Scorpions, the only government department capable of keeping Zuma in the hot seat, and for which he should be charged with defeating the ends of justice. All this to the support of all the nannys and idiots who run the ANC.

Sooooo, lets put this in perspective. One PM who is fighting for his political life because he was on a cooking show, the only thing he could be charged with is poisoning someone with his Thai green curry which he has not done so far.

 And on the other hand an African leader(s) who will stay in power and expect everyone to take them seriously- where are the riots? Hell no, so long as the masses put up with this type of ridiculous behaviour Africa will never work

Things that Haunt Zuma

Our glorious, possible, future, corrupt excuse for a President, Jacob Zuma who faces a charge of Racketeering, four charges of Corruption, Money Laundering and 12 charges of fraud relating to a multi-million Rand Arms deal- Lets not forget the Rape charges that he had also against him, has once again got the ANC backing him. 

The ANC which once supposedly stood for Righteousness, Freedom and Justice now try to twist the ends of Justice for their own needs. By the disbanding of the Scorpions, the only organisation that had the power to bring Zuma to justice. Lets add another case against Zuma- defeating the ends of Justice!

With Zuma attempting to end the independence of the Courts and create a body that will regulate the Media this all smacks of a future where critics of Zuma and the government will be silenced- end of freedom of Speech.

Needless to say there are always two sides to a story however playing Devil's Advocate for a minute, if all of these charges are the work of some more underhand sinister plot by Mbeki who is a Xhosa, to oust a Zulu from the mainly Xhosa party then either way there is a problem- dirty tribal politics!

The Majority don't want to see the truth, they choose sides because it's tribal, whether or not their leader is wrong or right and that is the main problem.

The country will be the area of conflict and the prize is the hearts and minds of the Majority who mostly unemployed and worse off now then under the former regime will choose sides and more unrest and violence will occur. 

The question to ask as well is ...in which civilized country does a potential criminal run for office? That is of course if you take G.W out of the equation.

The Constitution which is supposedly so liberal is a farce and the people that are suppose to adhere to it are the very same ones who abuse it.

Welcome to Darkest Africa where resolutions are hammered out through the barrel of a gun.
