Let us not forget, South Africa is inherently a wealthy country with massive resources. For SA to fail, the incompetence and corruption must be massive.

Turns out passing laws that make it illegal to employ qualified people doesn't work out

My Dutch parents lived there in the fifties when apartheid just took off. My mom did not like that and they returned to the Netherlands. My father always maintained that if the ANC would be in power, the country would tank within a generation. I always fiercly opposed him. My dad has been dead for over a decade now. But sorry dad, you were right.

[mikeybrant]

And they still manage to blame all this on apartheid 30 years on 😅😅😅

[unabomberwasright]

I live in Argentina and it's absolutely terrifying how millions of peoples' lives and entire countries can just be ruined by a few incompetent people.

My South African friend told me "First we had White Power, then we had Black Power. Now we have no power"

[mmrogowski]

You know you're in a permanent state of despair when they actually create an app that tells you when you will lose your electricity.

[shrek]

South Africa used to have nukes. How the mighty have fallen, now it struggles with electricity generation. I feel sorry for the South African people, the ANC's incompetence is astounding.

[DigitalNomadOnFIRE]

Once corruption takes hold, it's almost impossible to fix anything in a country.

A South African myself, having lived here for 57 years, I relate 100% to everything you touched on - other than, it is actually far-far worse then outlined. South Africa is actually in a death spiral. There is absolutely nothing that you can think of that is not broken. ANC continue now to sow racial division with employment race quotas and now race quotas for water. You cannot make this sh%t up. Any idea the strain load shedding has on mortuaries, hospitals, clinics, water purification plants and many other essential services. Now the ANC want to nationalize the health sector. A good friend of mine had a hernia operation last week and had to recover lying on the hospital floor. All of this so the ANC can control the money, contracts and tenders - that all go to family and cadres. Really, really bad! Crime is at levels never seen before, like a war zone. For your own safety DO NOT travel here until and only if things turn around for the better.

My uncle and his children lived in South Africa. At the time apartheid was coming to an end, one of his children said that a majority government would not wreck the economy. His argument was that South Africa had had a chance to see how other economies on the continent had been destroyed after colonial rule had ended, and that South Africa would learn from that. It appears to me that he was not correct.

[phillittle]

The farmers being slaughtered and having their land taken once the anc took over should have been a red flag really

[beatOmaniac]

The former CEO of Eskom had a very good interview on this overall topic. The amount of corruption within Eskom and ANC is wild and he supposedly almost lost his life over exposing the corruption.

Each visit I have made to SA over the past 15 years has been a pleasure. However, each time the infrastructure has deteriorated further and the fear of lawlessness has increased. The irony is that I bet SA will effectively become a new colony, not of the UK, but of China.

[dirklindsayfranke]

Was in the fortunate position to leave SA 5 years ago for Europe, grew up in SA. Went back for a wedding and could not believe the decline, the constant fear if being robbed, killed... I still have kids and grandkids in SA, I suffer constant sleepless nights, it was such a beautiful country, the ANC government has stolen the soul of SA...we had such potential...I'm working to get my kids out, German passport is our saving grace.

[claudsdeluca]

I was born in SA and moved to Europe. I left with my skills and funds for my future. I will never go back. Its a black hole for everything good that a human being can be or do. I don't know why I never left sooner. It is too the best thing I ever did in my life. Cheers to us!

I remember hearing stories about farmers who’d literally fled in the middle of the night with their whole families in fear for their life. They left their farms, the machinery and every thing needed to work the land but the crops rotted in the field because those same people that had been demanding the land refused to work it.

[midas]

Few years ago, I had the crazy idea to open a Joburg company as a Swiss. After one year I gave up due to bureaucracy, black empowerment, crime, having always large capital blocked in VAT and constant, mutual racism. The ANC, a combination of free loaders, corrupt officials and total incompetence. I came with the intention to create something good and jobs, but left totally frustrated and without hope for that beautiful country.

[maxbrazil]

The same thing happened to Jamaica. When they got their independence they started expelling everyone that knew how to keep the lights on.

[mionikat]

The worst thing about load shedding, is that thieves use it as an advantage to steal from stores and homes while the cameras are off.
