With that report, I for one would flat out refuse the trip to SA. We have a simular problem with our company as we fly freight to Kuwait and Bahrain frequently, as well as other un-secure locations. Several months ago Bahrain was put on a High Alert and we as crewmembers we were not advised and spent two days in a high profile hotel. Needless to say I was not pleased after finding this out later. I don't think any flying job is worth the risk. Some company's(especially freighters) out there could give a rats ass about the security of there employees and are more concerned about the end result and that's $$$$$$$.
