Xolobeni community members marching against the takeover of their land by the Australian mining company Mineral Commodities
âA CHINESE mining company is taking over plots of land in South Africa, paying residents small lump sums to give over mining rights to their land.
SAFTU (The South African Federation of Trade Unions) learns with disgust the dirty tricks of how the mining company, Nkwe Platinum Limited, is attempting to rob the people of Ga-Mamphahlane land.
In conduct reminiscent of criminal syndicates, this corporation has colluded with the parasitic national bourgeoisie to dispossess the community of their land.
In the reports given to the Sunday Times by residents, different sinister methods of dispossession came to light. They did not give the community sufficient information: while others, because of a lack of English comprehension, could not comprehend the contents of the leases they were signing.
