Construction companies preferred foreigners because they exploit them easily. 50 workers used to work here every day. But after the 30th of June only 5 people showed up.

Just know they were paid cash, no medical aid, no UIF, no pension fund, no overtime rate, under average rate per hour, no lunch, no teatime, no leave days, no sick leave, long hours working including holidays. They left without even a bus ticket to go back home.

Every department is filled with illegal foreign slaves in SA. They employ them in everything vele. 200 were kicked out of some 3 huge factories in Jozi and replaced by South Africans. 😂 I won't mention those factories for confidentiality.

You are making a big mistake to assume foreigners were exploited.

After watching these guys flee from a construction site, I now understand why SAPS allocated R600 million towards addressing illegal immigration. It certainly seems that the funding was never intended only for 30 June 2026.

Hard workers are modern day slaves, it’s heartbreaking though.

All these nations see us as nothing but slaves, and so they prefer the cheapest among us.

Yes I agree that there are those that are are here illigally, but even those with papers are asked to leave, not just that, there are businesses that are closed due to this, that actually employed Sans, but due to culture of certain Sans groups the problem is that most going to replace them, are lazy useless idiots that want to sit on their asses, and get paid large amounts. As for the business that were actually rendering services to the public and also employing people, will now stay closed and also due to inept culture and lack of ambition these services will be gone forever.

And you're living there knowing very well it was built by foreigners....you're indirectly contributing, exposing NONSENSE.... Move out and find an apartment that was built by South Africans only, mind you the owners of those buildings are also foreigners...

@Zimasabuhle Here in Cape Town in one of Balwin properties. I can name it if you want to, I know of illegal Malawians female cleaners who worked from Monday to Sunday, holidays etc….like everyday guys with no extra pay like nothing. They would knock out around 13:30 on Sunday.
