Good morning X 😎☕🫡
Starlink or not?!?! Well... 🤔
@elonmusk is pushing for @Starlink in South Africa because he wants to bring fast, reliable internet to rural schools, farms, clinics & millions who still wait decades for fibre or cell towers. He even offered R500m worth of free kits & service to connect 5000 rural schools (that's over 2.4m learners helped, no cost to @GovernmentZA).
He's not 'destabilising' anything!! He's literally trying to give away massive connectivity upgrades.
The only reason it's blocked? South Africa's B-BBEE rules requiring 30% black ownership for telecom licences. Elon has repeatedly said Starlink can't get a licence 'because I'm not black' — and he's called out the 140+ race-based laws that discriminate against non-black people today.
He criticises those laws precisely because they echo the very discrimination Mandela fought against - equal treatment for ALL races, not reverse racism!!
So @kimheller3 @UlrichJvV @Am_Blujay... it's not about missing apartheid or takeover plots or anything of that sort. It's about satellite internet flying overhead unused while kids in the bundus can't access online education because of ownership rules that even @Microsoft & @amazon got waivers for.
South Africa deserves better connectivity!! Maybe the @MYANC and the left-wingers should think about connecting the country instead of blocking progress. 🤷🏻♀️

@Nicole_Barlow1 @KhayaMaloni @CyrilRamaphosa You miss this, the premier may only call the referendum on provincial issues and is not allowed to call referendums in national issues specifically secession, citizenship, national sovereignty and foreign policy.
English

@KhayaMaloni @CyrilRamaphosa Section 127(2)(f) of the Constitution of the Republic of South Africa, 1996 explicitly states that the Premier of a province is responsible for:
calling a referendum in the province in accordance with national legislation.

Dear Cyril,
I’m aware that authoritarian instincts run strong within the globalist circles you’re aligned with. That said, under our constitution, this decision is not yours to make.

@TheCradleMedia Your headline doesn't make sense, yoh! See how simple this is "PRESS RELEASE: #Belgium today filed a declaration of intervention under Article 63 of the #ICJ Statute in the case #SouthAfrica v. #Israel.
Link to the press release: go.icj-cij.org/3LepH0s'
And it's from the ICJ
English

BREAKING | The International Court of Justice (ICJ) announces that Belgium has filed a declaration of intervention in the case of the application of the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide in the Gaza Strip (South Africa v. Israel).
The declaration of intervention would allow Belgium to give its interpretation of the Genocide Convention (the 1948 Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide).
