Before our clint pad in the past. Like every now and nothing is quoted on the fact that the people and we have been the people stuff a lot, especially in terms of unemployment personality, myself picking. I have used for graduates already, but its tom thats because saw that protect is in serious decline. Unemployment. Poverty in, in a policy have dropped many saw that pretends mostly less of a dignified standard of living. The biggest opposition policy says it can do a better job, but its not convincing enough closes. So what is the Democratic Alliance has problems and with thousands of post holes on the back, this new plays are changing the political scene. Polls show them making ground winning of the votes. Is this entrances with the established policy . The im christine, when do i its good to have your company. Ive reported on a number of elections in south africa, but the general election sip on may 29th. Feels difference. There is a strong sense here that the result will be a game changer. The African National congress has ruled for 30 years. Its now facing its toughest electro challenge hits a growing number of floods, africans off dissatisfied with the states. The country is in. And they blame the amc, the key act to in bringing about south africas freedom off the dock is of oppressive white minority rule. Heres a brief look back at the era known as the policies in the racially segregated south africa. Black people were 2nd cost citizens. The highest spaces in society was reserved for white people who would defend himself batch, and for to sickness. They had Privileged Access to the best of the countries public facilities. The segregation officially known as a policy began in 1948, but it was rooted in the countrys history of colonization. As a pause, a little required black people to carry a possible which stipulated where they were permitted to work and travel. The system can do the harassment of black people the, the government did not tolerate the sense, but that didnt stop people from showing their opposition. They were frequent mass demonstrations to which Police Responded with people for in 1960. So the African Police opened fire on thousands of demonstrations in shop full township, killing 69 people. Again lisa nelson, mandela and the amc took up the struggle against the policies. For this he and his comrades were branded terrorist and lisa sentenced to life in prison. But the resistance continued inside south africa and around the world by the 1990s. Much of the legislation that form the foundation of the apologies the system had been repealed, making the way to south africas 1st inclusive and democratic election in 1994. The agency won that election, making Nelson Mandela, the countrys 1st black president. Raise your right hand. Im sorry, so it helped me. God saw how the country was full of hope and promise blacks and whites would long been divided. Would united and the agency would continue to dominate south africas policies with over whelming majority support at the better thoughts by any measure the agencies electoral success over the past that he is, has been phenomenal, starting high end of Nelson Mandela and rising to spanish levels and to tell them babies all time high, just shy of 70 percent, 20 years ago. Even the decline of jacob c. My is relative and below watermark off 58 percent of silver. Im a pool, so is a result. Most democratically elected parties can only dream of, but this time the amc is facing an uncertain future post point to the result and the 50 percent. And the last so if its absolute majority the smell of rubbish mixes with sewage. Its a powerful cocktail that residents have gotten used to living with. This is a familiar site across south africas township areas. We made the black citizens live, the president serv. Im a post. Ive visited this area to campaign for boats. We joined him as the interested with the residents listening to the consent this lifetime Agency Support to was happy to see room a poster. So he would tell him exactly how bad it is here. Big guy, theres theses running through the streets. Heres the sewage. Water is flowing freely here, right now, quotes start done. We often dont have any electricity here. Yeah, i mean, it goes off for long periods, one, even for a month, sometimes i big. Those are the things that causes frustration of enjoy. This comes out by increasing this also causing frustration is the countries high unemployment rate, 40 percent of people old enough to work with out drops so that for kids are also experiencing the coupling electricity crisis. At its worst, some areas winds without power for over 8 hours a day. Imagine paying 5 times the market price for a roll of toilet paper. Thats what public probably utility is. Scott was shutting out. Its been revealed that it was regularly overpaying for basic supplies. Its a kind of maladministration that is lift, so that for to in serious tend to have been used by Business People with closer relationships to the amc to enrich themselves, leaving a litany of corruption skin. The apologies for reasons like these, the amc is in big trouble. Prediction polls suggest support for the party could even drop below 50 percent eviction goes up because we know whats going to happen. And the people in this hole and the people of south africa know in their own hearts of what theyre waiting to do in terms of giving the amc and overwhelming majority. But the majority of voters in this election, or john south africa who grew up under the amc administration of the although housing, the water supply and sanitation may have improved during the lifetimes. Theyre unhappy about the poor economic prospects. Well, no. Try to go ahead. I dont have what young people wont vote for the i n c because we are unemployed because it will be painful to them because new policies are going to come and take loads from them. They are going to, the new policies are responding to our needs as young people is that when the i n c seems to be stuck in the past, i the not looking after on somebody. So i got a quote that unhappiness is expected to cost b and c deals at the polls. The amc leadership sees the party has turned over you the fruits and should not be judged on past governments failures on the 29th of may. So that for tenants will give the assessment of when they think the agency can choose 10 things around the but up to 3 decades in power. The amc is suffering a wide range of electoral ills. I spoke with the agencies youth, the president calling malachi, and asked him about the worst one, corruption. Those will clear up that one does have to be days. Thats why i didnt see a setup systems for that day, is if youre a child, its not even funky. And if youre a child of corruption, we requested to step aside as a member of the is a good coverage because of step outside of the display of the nc and teen q need. So the steps that ticket was moved like knowledge of the is a part of our problems that were faced over time. Is that output is going to vision, has been associated with what up she and in was the split up a window confidence that enough is enough for those will cut out most new organization because it will get screw up unplugged to corrupt cards of because i have them in part, you know, and theyve been plugged into, well, saves, caught up kind of tough to cause a you, i, yeah, of course are good access to the source, the, the access to the not, not, not able to run but it comes with organization tend to be there to save the people in advance that the end of the part were at a time with geopolitical relations around the world are shifting. If you have Power Centers emerging all over the world, i know that its, its been a long held emission of the agency to break wisdom hedge, monique, and the young people in this country having to decide between the east and, and, and the west and alliance. So to say, do you think so that should cause it more to ally with wisdom, power, east impalas, excuse me, like china and russia as opposed to the west . Look at the is the ticket most pulls up within the, our poster there, but also even the west invest that i dont know if we ever saw some of the a lot of explore the reports and treat agreements mostly with the wives. No, im saying that the only thing that the one, the one from one of these countries i dont want to be seated. But one day a lot by the end of the stuff. And she, we want anyone whos a lady who i do is kind of agrees with the post of the is the read it to us is set up to go to bed. Do i put that there is a some polling suggesting that youll parties the amc for the 1st time might struggle to, to, to win a majority in this election . The fact that, thats even part of the conversation isnt that a daunting prospect. Weve never been on the tag like before. The eclipse is going to take them have a now. Now i think that weve got quotes. And one thing about the and see if we can take, if hes been able to time to do about take it kind of thought stalled and presented. But actually thank you so much, much in this election for the 1st time in 30 years. And they will news its majority, but they will do anything to stay in power, image and quietness in between the amc, the filing f, f m, as whom of function. And then this is an issue of the core of she lives with on the to get twist to this election is about some 5 us unite to risk to south africa. Vote d a. You just saw a Campaign Video from the Democratic Alliance. It is promising to rescue south africa from the amc. A controversial taxi from the main opposition party, which 121 percent of the National Photos in between the 19 election. But it is only dev, and at provincial level, it runs the wisdom teeth dw style pool, could travel to cape town to look at the policies record and what it has to offer. So that we can city like no other cape tonys homes over 4000000 people and the numbers keep growing. The city has become an investment hub and a sort of to relocation destination for south africans and foreigners. Its one of the few places we jobs. A state in the growing large moving to its also different because its not a fact by the opposition and like the meaning of the successes in town. And the great problems are due to policy interventions. It believes that can replicate this success in the risk of south africa and risk you the country from what it sees is 30 years of amc mismanagement. But theres another side of cape town. Aside we have residents struggle to find decent, Affordable Accommodation rates in k town are up to 40 percent higher. They need to have this book informal settlements like this one have sprung up all across cape town. Residents loved us, say they want to be close to public transport routes and close to the city center with the jobs are located. They say they simply isnt enough social Housing Available and a consent that the prices for rental in other areas, simply to high life. Yeah, means living without meaning, the basic needs need into some residence to feel leaked down by the d. A administration product we, we dont have electricity, we dont have water. And we also dont have toilets, which is the toilet. So these things are quite important to all people who in the indian is the one i set up where you join us in the das track record has not yet to convince team to vote for it does seem to be trying to deliver. But theres many people in the western cape, its trying, but were not really satisfied. Yeah, even though theres more than seeing needed john ski and hes in his taking these parties risk, you saw the african message across the country, mainly focusing on areas that have traditionally voted for the agency. He knows the part he needs to attract these voltage committees to overtake the routing parts at the polls. But what about those . What im certain about the das track record in the waste, in case youre not going to get everything rocked over or not. Its going to take some time with people, especially the quality, an economic inequality that still exists in south africa use officer parts it. And absolutely, the waste of cape is not perfect. Still got a lot to do and thats why were saying theres lots more to do so that we can voters have made it clear that the on promises they will judge parties in this election on the track record. The Democrats Alliance will have to show voters that he works with citizens of old backgrounds. If it wants to n c p a and see the above is the only alternative that we have got out of the night when the f. F is the one that i relate to is the one that talks about the problems that you should go to account is the one that addresses the issues that the people are facing, the pool, the much of the life, the print. I think if, if he presents me so all the policies, i think the waking for, for me. So thats why if it, let me uh, come and support the party as if its given me something thats n c have never given me. Im 35 and nobodys going to hire me. But really as a whole off the top 3 place policies, any one is expected to grow its share, often floats. The Economic Freedom fights is o e offense. It has been very deliberate and courting young 1st since the 5th is led by 43 year old julius my. Lemme who rose to prominence as the amc youth, meek leader between 282010. The parties focus on land redistribution has been a major draw pod to young person so many of whom believe the amc sold out during the Group Associations with the parts they needed. The airpods they thought lead, utilize the fact that the dont the light, 30 percent of the load is in the hands of the wind jobs. If you bought the by defect about drop lets, lets install it. Thats what youve got today. Seat at both on 50 the meat are people who are comfortable to wait an hour. Im perfect. So now is because i want to stop funding if, if in the mall there are thousands of political policies standing in this election menu of the new profiting from purchase hopes for change, hopes that can knock me fulfilled by the 3 big policies. Sonya as well as the the, is the lead to off the rice incense, the policy i close up with him and so wasteful, and asked him about his plan to make informal settlements and things of the past. The ease no plan, so profile in sleep build communities which cannot become gift to us because theyve got the right for us to be to the closer to Economic Centers where i think we can work this in a short distance and so on. Its calles. Provide please this pop up menu wed be need said within 15 reviews reviews just eliminates the po box you have to learn from funding. Take august the data and make the tough decisions we need to take to get the land is the big issues in south africa and its in your manifesto, land reform. How do you propose rolling out the policy of land reform here in south africa . So far . By there is nothing and therefore its patients of these institutions. It forms within that context. Weve just spoken about to crank population. She started commenting justice and immunization. Sit in this question, what else im asking is moving to the right, what do they need with the get the they need probably come many to see me choose the top of the Network Infrastructure in sullen one of the instruments that is provided, you know, about the institution is exploitation of an in, with compensation. The government is not done because these most plans because it costs to, she says you must explore periods for a poppy purpose. So you must be clear why you need and then identify each. Its in the context of the plan, its for page, you pay the or not fit in the amount of money that you sent in to provide the services that you need to provide. What of calls is made . Some people are very on it. Yes, but i is a demo puppy the views at this. Expropriation should happen without compensation 10, the south african states affords to compensate people whose land does take. So let me give you a sense of why compensation is one in the areas you have lots of hold on mental illness. When you say it must be information he thought compensation impala is you wanted maybe let the government officials for making it so patient decision. And get, you know, caught up society, youre going to get some for sending that over. And hes telling me its what we did by a quarter up to from she a. And because the for to read the lawyer, we would need to fight the case for the problem is to talk to this is that this has been positioned as a net white inch, almost 10 years old to 180 s and 1050 a. We do give the government the power to take the compensation. You wouldnt have this model or we got some other pages white, but the people watching the same amount of money in the process of acquiring net we set out by asking way of solve africa, wind wrong, and who might be able to solve its challenges. So if south africa on the decline, i put that question seductive sampling better Political Sciences at the university of pretoria. South africa, it is on the has not subject to the promise of 1994 and it certainly i think in many areas under the tide in terms of being able to provide for the people that lives here so that i think its a low mileage. She will be good for saw that i think the bird, i think being this miracle of 1994 and this, you know, relatively peaceful transition from the past day to democracy. Has been a major big heavy yoke to carry for the country. And for the people that lived yet because the expectation of what south africa is um and, and could be, has often been completely out of touch with the reality of what it is and what it was recovery from to because and so i think that a dose of healthy expectations is a good thing to south africa there. Um and i think that one of the major uh, kind of hurdles and what i would like to see being focused on from now is to really attend to attack the deep in the quality that is in this country. Because the reality is that the country is in some ways more an equal than it was in 1994. The people that will wealthy in 1994 have only become wealthier. Youve still got massive disparities between white people and black peoples, what quality of life and, and the a young person who was born and 1994 con. See very much what is big to about 2024. To 1984. Where as for me, who was born in 1984 i so and i lived through a dramatic improvement in my life and my life chances. And we need to give that back to kids who are living now. And i think part of that means being really realistic about what south africa is, what it can achieve. Im not trying to live up to some image of being a miracle state. Even Nelson Mandela said he was not a thing, and he didnt want to be treated as one. And i dont think thats how that because should be treated like a country of states. Um, so that because a normal country was deep, deep, deep problems, many historical, but also many created in the present. And im looking for to us having the time in the space to deal with the reality of who south africa. Its not to the International Community imagines its or once its thats also the special edition of the deputy in use africa on the south african elections. Those he goes off to the end of a policies will leave you with the voices of the people who have the final say, saw the African Voices on their hopes for the future. Ill see you next time by the. 7 you know, some, a trustee change here in south africa. The answer is going to win the, im positive because its a, its a, its going to when people can see this change. Education is a key way to know who i want children can post to be and get educated. They will be significant change even better than what they saw in 1994, the beautiful and this more that shouldnt be done to go to africa. And i believe, honest as the youth coming up, we have so much privileges to change or con. No, i feel like the call to. So davis said, okay, some people are afraid. I cannot be all likely can to get.
