are you kidding, i'd be on the next plane out, that would be the party to end all parties. we need to get a hold on our crime in jozi, i think that's the one thing that would put a damper on our bid. i was watching this programme over here called 20/20, they were tearing south africa to pieces, talking about how jozi is the worst place, most dangerous and what not, how you can't walk down the street. i was shocked, as a gautengie, i was offended, i mean these americans they make it seem as if their country is free of problems (like some kind of eden- bull****) new york is the most dangerous city, how about that? i mean wherever you have a major city, you attract the cream and the curd of society. they made jozi seem like hell on earth, it was not a pleasant thing to see for someone who loves their town, and sees it being presented that way. I would love jozi even if it was a war zone, to hell with diane sawyer.

Hey Bathong!
I am upset that I missed 20/20! and I'm doubly upset that they can say horrible things about Gauteng! First of, the crime should not be a criteria to not consider South Africa as a venue, secondly, whenever there is an event such as the World Cup, the expectation is to have security and life goes on! I agree with you 7of9Borg that Gauteng is one of the best cities in the whole wide world, it's my home and whatever they dub it to be, it will remain my home! I grew up there and Love that place!
If they pass up the opportunity to experience the flavor of my stad, then it's their loss!
Kegopotse gae!!
