Video: S.Africa: Untold Story: When Whites tried to build tens of millions of houses for Blacks
In this video I show some private photos that I have and I tell the story of how many times Whites set out to build millions of houses for Blacks in South Africa even under Apartheid, and how the ANC ruling party was spiteful and how they DESTROYED the efforts of the Whites.


[This is an article from 2020 that will show you how our worthless government went to town and created all kinds of junk laws. They limited the shops we could go to and what we could buy! It was madness. I am so happy that all this crap is over, especially the stupid Mask law, which finally has fallen by the wayside over 2 years later. Jan]

South Africans will only be able to buy food and basic goods during the lockdown periud.

Grocery stores will not be allowed to sell non-essential goods like clothing, it was announced at a media briefing.

Shops will only be allowed to sell food and basic goods during the lockdown, and South Africans won’t be able to shop for non-essentials.

This will cut the time people spend in store as well as the number of people in shops, Ebrahim Patel, minister of trade and industry, said at a media briefing on Wednesday night. Only fifty people will be allowed in a shop at the same time, and they must be one metre apart at all times. Stores will be limited to selling food and essential goods, government announced.

No-one will be allowed to buy clothes – even if the grocery store (for example Woolworths or Pick n Pay) usually sells clothes or homeware. No alcohol will be on sale anywhere during the three weeks.

Government is in negotiations with retailers to perhaps open earlier to accommodate the new public transport hours, said transport minister Fikile Mbalula. Minibus taxis, as well as Uber and Bolt, will be banned from the roads except from 05:00 to 09:00 and from 16:00 to 20:00 during the lockdown.

Mbalula said South Africans should shop in their neighbourhoods.

Patel said that stores will expected to stick to basic goods, and referred to government’s list of essential goods, which includes toilet paper, hand sanitiser, all-purpose cleaners, baby formula, disposable nappies, cooking oils, wheat flour, rice, maize meal, pasta, sugar, long-life milk as well canned and frozen vegetables and meat.

Last week, government introduced price controls on these products, and urged consumers to report price increases to the National Consumer Commission (telephone number: 0800 014 880).

So far, thirty cases of price gouging are being investigated by the Competition Commission, and eleven certificates have been issued against supermarkets including a Spar branch in Silverlakes, Gauteng, for raising the price of Dettol antiseptic; a Spar in Plattekloof, Cape Town for hand sanitiser; North Safety in Cape Town for hand sanitiser; Checkers Hyper in Kempton Park and Makro in Durban for toilet paper; National Overalls in Gauteng for face masks; Bloemfontein Pharmacy in the Free State for gloves; Mopane Pharmacy in Mpumalanga and Seaside Pharmacy in Table View in the Western Cape for face masks; and Pick ‘n Pay in Milnerton, Western Cape for hand sanitiser.

Eight additional certificates were issued on Wednesday, but had not yet been confirmed by the receivers. These were four in Gauteng, one in KwaZulu-Natal, two in the North West Province and one in Limpopo.
