Jacob Zuma said this yesterday during the three-day World Economic Forum on Africa in Cape Town:
In other countries the media is applauded by not reporting crime, that they are patriotic, because they are not marketing their countries negatively
This is the second time the ANC compares South Africa to being a communist country because the only countries that hide their crime stats are communist dictator runned countries that have no respect for their citizens.
I wonder what countries Zuma was reffering to. As they mentioned "China, North Korea and Burma".
Those are the only three countries I can really think of that hide their crime statistics and most of that is human rights abuses by the government anyway. Same as in South Africa where white people get murdered and nothing is stolen, it's a silent genocide that the corporate media does not want to speak about.
So Jacob Zuma calls people patriotic for hiding and keeping silent about crime, murders and rapes? Doesnt seem very patriotic to me now does it?
Anyway, Welcome to communism.
