RE: South-Africa on a dangerous track!
Most would prefer education and employment, not many yearn to farm was what I read in a recent article (cannot remember the URL) I do however prefer to use this site who do check on the facts, wrong or right https://africacheck.org/reports/do-40000-whites-own-80-of-sa-the-claim-is-incorrect/
Oh, I agree! Knowledge and the ability to generate income is always more important to most, but this has become a political selling point for the ANC and EFF.
Facts need to be substantiated before this process could proceed, it is part of the Constitution.
Rightful land certification would have to be thoroughly investigated before being processed. Both the ANC and EFF are using old tactics that have been researched over the years (as in the link I put above will reflect), it goes back prior to the past couple of years.
Should the land be 'grabbed' what would happen if say Sandton or Pretoria high street was proven to be tribal land, how would they be able to take this established land to redistribute?
Too many grey areas, 'Fitas' and 'District 6', both illegal land grabs under the apartheid era, people should be housed adequately now if proven to have lost their homes then, that is fair practice IMHO.
If a farmer has had a family living on the land for the past 100 years assisting in farming that land, surely it would not be too big a price to pay to offer 10% of the land to the worker to farm, in that way assisting someone to become self sustained as a land owner. (Just thinking aloud)
