JACINTA’S SHALLOW THINKING 🚨 So Jacinta’s argument is basically this: if a South African professor and a foreign professor are equally qualified, but the academic panel concludes that the foreign professor is better suited for the job, we must still hire the South African simply because they are South...

"I came to the South African Embassy in Japan and experienced xenophobia." You are Zimbabwean. Living in Japan. Using a South African driver's license. And you went to the South African Embassy ..; not the Zimbabwean Embassy ..; to get help. And when they couldn't help you, you called it xenophobia? You are a Zimbabwean national ..; not South African. You obtained a South African driver's license ..; while you were in South Africa. You are now in Japan ..; and you went to the South African Embassy for assistance. The embassy told you they couldn't verify your license ..; because they don't provide consular services for foreign nationals. Sis, that's not xenophobia. That's the law. The South African Embassy is there to serve South African citizens ..; not Zimbabweans, not Nigerians, not anyone else. You didn't go to the Zimbabwean Embassy. You didn't use Zimbabwean documents. You didn't follow the proper process. You expected South Africa to help you ..;even though you are not South African. And when they didn't, you cried xenophobia. This is the entitlement we are talking about. You used South Africa to study. You used South Africa to get a license. You used South Africa as a bridge to Japan. And now you want South Africa to help you in Japan too? Why didn't you use your Zimbabwean documents? Why didn't you go to the Zimbabwean Embassy? Why didn't you follow the proper process? Because you know the Zimbabwean system doesn't work. You know South Africa is the only country that will help you. And when they didn't, you blamed them. South Africa is not your personal stepping stone. It is not your bridge to the world. It is a country with laws – and those laws apply to everyone, including you. Go to the Zimbabwean Embassy. Use your Zimbabwean documents. Follow the proper process.

Because the South African government is not a vigilante group, it runs the state and states engage diplomatically not through insults on social media. President Cyril Ramaphosa knows exactly what he is doing, and in my view he is doing the right thing. Many South African companies have outgrown the South African market. Take MTN, for example. If you removed MTN from its African operations outside of South Africa, it would become a much smaller company because South Africa contributes only about 18% of MTN’s total earnings. The remaining 82% comes from its operations across the rest of Africa. As the MTN CEO explains below, those relationships have to be nurtured. You cannot allow xenophobia and Afrophobia to destroy them. These companies pay taxes in South Africa, and the profits they generate across the continent ultimately benefit the South African economy. Their expansion creates value for shareholders, supports jobs at home, contributes to tax revenue, and strengthens South Africa’s economic position. It would therefore be foolish for President Ramaphosa not to engage with his African counterparts. Failing to do so would damage not only diplomatic relations, but also trade and investment ties that are vital to South African companies operating across the continent. If African governments were to adopt a united position against South African businesses because of deteriorating relations, the South African economy would suffer significantly. That is why diplomacy is not a luxury; it is an economic necessity. Unfortunately, many of those fuelling these problems either do not understand how modern economies work or simply do not read enough to appreciate the importance of regional trade, investment, and economic interdependence.

I want my followers to understand that you SHOULDN’T insult South Africa as a country based on a few loud voices on social media who express racist or xenophobic views. South Africa has provided numerous opportunities to the world, particularly to Africans. If South Africans were truly xenophobic, Africans would not be living there in such large numbers today. The majority of South Africans are welcoming to all foreigners who are legally in the country and do not commit crimes. These foreigners work with South Africans, live with them, and many are married to South Africans. There is nothing to worry about in South Africa if you are there legally and not committing crimes. South African citizens have the right to express concerns about illegal foreign nationals and those who commit crimes. In Zimbabwe, illegal foreigners are often placed in dilapidated jails, and refugees are housed in camps like Tongogara in Manicaland. Generalisations are dangerous, especially when they taint and insult a silent majority that is not xenophobic. Local communities in South Africa have protected foreign nationals from a small, violent minority on many occasions. The South African government is not xenophobic either. If it were, Zimbabwean women, who make up 70% of pregnant women giving birth at Musina Hospital in Limpopo, would not be allowed there. We should be grateful for the South African hospitality we have received for decades. It is important to recognise that while xenophobia and racism may exist in certain pockets of society, these attitudes do not reflect the majority of South Africans or the country as a whole. Respecting the rights of South African citizens to voice concerns about illegal immigration and crime is important, as these are valid issues. However, it is equally important to avoid generalising these concerns to portray the entire nation as xenophobic or unwelcoming. If South Africans were truly xenophobic, parties like PA and Action SA would be in power today. The four largest political parties in South Africa have never used xenophobia as a campaign platform, which should be telling. Do not judge a nation's character based on a few loud, yet inconsequential voices on social media. They do not represent South Africa accurately. Countries are a product of their history. We shouldn’t draw comparisons with where we come from and insist that our hosts should behave as we do. If South Africans were to follow our practices in Zimbabwe, refugees would be in camps and illegal foreigners would be in jail! In Zimbabwe, refugees are not even allowed to work, if you are found working, you are thrown into jail. South Africa, on the other hand, provides equal legal rights in its courts to foreigners as it does to South Africans. These actions are not those of a xenophobic country. Zimbabwe has refused to issue documents to people of Malawian and Zimbabwean origin, and it has revoked the citizenships of many Zimbabweans whose great-grandparents came from elsewhere. In any society, you are going to have opportunistic politicians and unemployables who think that all their problems are caused by foreigners, we have them everywhere, but they shouldn’t be used to define a whole nation!
