Good points, but my point too remains valid. Although you say the ANC are educating people, but the quality is low, barriers have been lowered, and the 'qualifications' are worthless. As you said, in the old days, an SA qualification and education were highly regarded throughout the world.

Your point about[I] the South African professional could walk into(if he was allowed in... [/ a job anywhere in the world I] is a good one too. I had a black American girl on my team who treated me like crap becuase I was 'a white racist South African'. She then told me that all white South Africans are racist and couldn't see the irony in that statement until I asked her if it would then be fair to say that all blacks are muggers and druggies.

As for our airlines, I love SAA, even though I've had some flights on which the service has been appalling, it's been more than compensated by those where the service was warm, friendly, and Proudly South African!
