A white Toyota Fortuner with registration DB 760 NC was stolen from a complex in Centurion. This looks like some kind of inside job.

The appointment of Roelf Meyer as South Africa's ambassador to the United States is disappointing. At 78, he is a retired politician whose career belongs to a previous political era. Far from instilling confidence among Afrikaners, this choice risks deepening existing concerns within our community. It does little to repair strained relations with Washington and instead appears to be yet another misstep in the South African government's handling of its relationship with the United States.

The tragedy of Apartheid 2.0 in South Africa isn't just about 145 race based laws, it's the chilling normalization of deadly rhetoric.
When thousands gather to chant for the killing of their fellow citizens based on skin color, and leaders find nothing wrong with it, the Rainbow Nation is in crisis.
History teaches us that mass violence starts with dehumanization. Once you stop seeing a neighbor as a citizen and start seeing them as a target, bad things aren't just possible, they become inevitable.
You cannot build a future on the same hate you claimed to leave behind in 1994.

The "Kill the Boer" chant is deeply wrong, it is shocking that there are still people who spew such hate speech. It is pure savagery and barbaric. Normal people would never do that, even in the context of politics, it represents the most intellectually bankrupt ideology imaginable.

@AFRICANDEMOC The desperate tests you have to resort to to dismiss him is amusing. None of that is his responsibility. Has Toyota or VW done any of that? He's not claiming to care about the poor. He wants to do business here and is willing to offer free internet to be able to do so.

Elon Musk who has never

Suddenly cares about poor black Africans. Don’t make me laugh

South Africa won’t allow Starlink to be licensed, even though I was BORN THERE, simply because I am not Black!
We were offered many times the opportunity to bribe our way to a license by pretending that a Black guy runs Starlink SA, but I have refused to do so on principle.
Racism should not be rewarded no matter to which race it is applied.
Shame on the racist politicians in South Africa. They should be shown no respect whatsoever anywhere in the world and shunned for being unashamedly RACISTS!

Why Elon Musk is RIGHT to fight South Africa’s racist rules blocking Starlink? Imagine this: Long ago, South Africa had very unfair laws called apartheid. They treated Black people badly and kept them from good jobs and money. When those bad laws ended, the country made new rules (called B-BBEE) to help Black people get a fair share of business. The idea was good – like a big helping hand. But now? For companies like Starlink to sell fast internet, they MUST give away 30% of their business to Black partners. Just because of skin color. Elon Musk was born in South Africa. He left as a teen to chase big dreams. Today, his company SpaceX wants to bring Starlink – super fast satellite internet – to South Africa. But the rules say no unless they give up part of the company. Elon said it right: “Starlink is not allowed because I’m not Black.” SpaceX promised to spend about $30 million (that’s 500 million rand!) to give FREE high-speed internet to 5,000 rural schools. That helps over 2.4 MILLION kids every year learn better, get jobs later, and have a brighter future. Real help for the people who need it most! Starlink already works in about 24 other African countries. Villages there now have internet for school, doctors, and business. South Africa’s villages are missing out because of these racist rules. Elon isn’t asking for special favors. He just wants fair play so Starlink can connect everyone fast. Internet = education, jobs, hope. Why hold back millions of kids over rules that pick by race and color?

@TheEazyEd @TumishoMasha @elonmusk True, somehow he retweets all the nonsense here about SA but wont see anything positive about the country

@TumishoMasha The sad part is that @elonmusk 's algorithm is gonna suppress this from being viewed by many people. But had you said anything bad about SA.....yhoooo! you'd be sitting on 10k retweets, 80k likes and 900k views within an hour.

@KingOfCoinz @queenie4rmnola @Tasetireloaded2 Elon is a South African so it would be 100% ownership so what else could be the factor preventing him from selling his product in his home country?
English
South African law requires internet providers have at least 30% ownership by historically disadvantaged individuals. This isn't racism; it's about correcting past injustices from apartheid. Elon, the wealthiest man on earth claims he’s a victim, but the only problem is greed.

BREAKING NEWS | Police are currently raiding a property in Umhlanga, where an illegal call centre is allegedly being run.
It comes after an in-depth crime intelligence probe, spanning months.
Members of the SAPS eThekwini District, Metro Police Special Operations Directorate, and SAPS TRT entered the property a short while ago.
They are accompanied by representatives from the banking sector.
It appears a telephonic scam was being used, where millions were siphoned out of various bank accounts.
Several people have already been arrested, including foreign nationals.
Details on @eNCA #DStv403.

Elon Musk supported the forceful illegal fraudulent takeover of TikTok by the American government citing national security.
All of a sudden South Africa is racist for refusing to license Starlink on the same grounds.
The South African government is right. Starlink will be used by the US to invade South Africa when it is time.
It is a serious national security threat to every country against the US colonial power.

@africatodayMG Dear @AthlendaM @SAPoliceService is there an effort to track and arrest the drug kingpins who turned these women into drug mules? Is the investigation going to that extent? Else they will keep recruiting new drug mules

@ItuRebaone @GatiepAdonis @M_o_t_s_i_e_M @vusi_mygy In summary, starlink does not bring anything new that we dont have now, no advantages at all.The only thing they mention is speed. Education bla bla story doesnt make sense

Starlink is in Zimbabwe, are the Zimbabweans lifted out of poverty?
Will listen on the radio
Elon Musk@elonmusk
Starlink has done more than any NGO to lift people out of poverty by connecting them with a means of education and a market for their good & services via the Internet

@Leon_Schreib Who are the manufacturer of these explosives? Can they be held accountable? Arresting the driver is goood but there are syndicates operating in Zimbabwe and Zambia that will find other ways to get these things into the country.
English
The Border Management Authority has achieved its latest major breakthrough by intercepting a truck trying to smuggle explosives valued at R1 million into our country at Beitbridge. These particular explosives are often used in cash-in-transit heists and illegal mining.
Vigilant BMA officers became suspicious and worked with SARS to use the advanced scanning technology at Beitbridge to detect a hidden compartment containing the illicit goods. The driver was arrested after attempting to flee and further SAPS investigations are underway. Day after day, we are making our country safer by restoring the rule of law at our borders! 🇿🇦
