The Painful Ramifications of the South African Democracy
On certain occasions in your life, you reach a stage where you face the proverbial rubicon, and irrespective of the consequences, you have to stand bold and address issues or aspects, however uncomfortable or excruciatingly offensive it might sound to the listener or reader, but for the sake of possible resolve and honesty, you have to do it!
This work is precisely that…, it is a perspective of an ordinary South African who has not only witnessed and experienced the painful effects of the apartheid system, but who has equally also witnessed the dawn of the new democracy, the euphoria of freedom and equality, and the ostensible deficiencies in the system and the ridiculous consequences.
It gives an overview of various aspects in our democratic order which, should be known and of concern to the leaders of our nation, but for various reasons, and particularly because of its sensitivity, is rather disregarded or, for the sake of peace as opposed to justice, left in the “chambers of silence”. The issues canvassed herein, are necessary for the enhancement of our democracy, and should be discussed with transparency. In certain instances, it requires the “stepping on the toes” of certain individuals as examples in order to clarify certain aspects which remain as yet unanswered.
Many of the aspects dealt with in this work, are generally known or even thought about, but unfortunately not discussed on public platforms due to its sensitivity. It is also an attempt to vocalize the unheard cries of the silent majority.
If it is the truth, it should be uttered even in the face of animosity and rejection.
