I hear you but fact of the matter is that apart from very sparse Arabic due to my Islamic faith, I do not speak any other languages save for the usual SAfrican ones of isiZulu, Afrikaans and English offcourse. My culture is SAfrican hence my shock at the attitudes displayed by South Asian...
Frankly, I believe that it is stupid my friend. We had similar hatred here in SAfrica when we got democracy but in a matter of 20 years, we've learned that we cannot live without each other, and we've opened our borders to our neighbors. Progress can only be achieved in a happy hood or else you...
Doc, how does a practically 10th generation SAfrican who has Gujju, Sindhi and Afrikaner ancestry become "an Indian Gujju" ? :D
Yeah, we revere Gandhi here
Well then my point about you being presumptuous was just proven in your above response.
Since you asked, I am a SAfrican whose ancestors came from current day India and Pakistan some many 100 years ago. I have a great great grandmother who was an Afrikaner (indigenous White people of SAfrica)...
Nope, you certainly cannot be the Archbishop (not Reverend!!) Tutu since you are way too presumptuous unlike the humble Arch. I never claimed to be a "black or a dutch-belgian / boer South African" in either this thread or any other thread of this forum. Had you read my introduction in the intro...

After joining this forum and reading the reality of your country, I do believe that I am justified in riding the high horse. Hurt ? Oh Puleeezzee ..what are you planning to do? Nuke SAfrica ? :D
Many members here of all nationalities need to understand that this forum is not a warzone where you fire back at your opponents as a defensive or offensive measure. I have come to realise that Bangladeshi, Pakistani and Indian members on this forum have some kind of tripartite hatred and...
We have millions of refugees from Zimbabwe and Malawi and other countries. Our government and officials don't allow these people to become victims of human trafficking or sexual predators. I must say this with respect to India but I really haven't come across such filth and squalor which I've...
We were supposed to visit Karachi and surrounds two years ago but were advised against it by our foreign ministry due to safety concerns. Ironically, we just visited India again :D
Isn't that place a disputed territory between the Chinese and the Indians? If so, considering Indian claims of a treaty with Bhutan, aren't they justified in being there? And finally, if a military force has forcibly taken over a territory and they haven't faced any military opposition in over a...
You're so defensive over your country that you have an answer ready for every allegation :D Then again so are many of the other members here in all fairness to you. In another forum, a Namibian member asked me how is the dirtbin full of Zulus (SAfrica) doing :D My response to him was that he...
If India has a Ministry for Women & Children, it is clearly a useless and non-functional Ministry. During my tour of Mumbai, I was horrified at the obvious marketing of young girls for prostitution. It seems to be legal there. As for children's rights, does that even exist in India? The masses...
Hi. My family has mostly Indian (Gujurathi) and Pakistani (Sindhi) ancestory with one Afrikaner (White) great great grandmother some time back. I don't believe that we have any Black African ancestory but heck this is SAfrica and anything could have happened in the past and been brushed under...
Oh my flags are flying proud next to my name here. If you don't believe me, ask the mods to check my ip address. As we say in Afrikaans, n vetbek kan nie sy vetkoek inhou ;)
