South Africa proved all its critics, so wrong!
The FIFA 2010 World Cup was such a huge success and showcased
Africa like never before as a Fun, safe and Beautiful destination,
with friendly people that embrace you, and Safari experiences
un equaled in the world. It is encouraging to see the media attitude
change towards South Africa after people from all over the world
have said but we were lied to South Africa is truly remarkable
and we feel very safe here, It is indeed a fact that South Africa
hosted the 2010 FIFA World Cup so well that FIFA’s Sepp
Blatter gave South Africa a 9/10 and said that no one gets 10/10
in his eyes.
The Time is now “Ke Nako” not only as South African’s
but as African’s the continent is a Buzz and we all worked
hard to make the World Cup the great success that it was and
it is leaving a lasting positive legasy in Africa. I still get
a riveted feeling (of how proud I am to be South African) every
time I think of Africa’s progress on the world stage on
African soil. I love the warmth of this great nation every time,
I arrive back in South Africa and the heartfelt welcome that
is extended to all who visit South Africa, as witnessed by the
millions who visit this great country. We are proud to show the
world the vast landscapes and beauty that South Africa as a world
class Tourism destination has to offer. I am always moved by
those with so little in life, who offer so much with no expectations
in return. I am humbled by the youth of South Africa their maturity
and leadership skills taking us to an ever more intelligent future.
I feel privileged to have met great people like Nelson Mandela,
HER Imperial Highness Princess Takamado, Dr Ben Ngubane, Dr Danny
Jordaan, Mr Thabang Makwetla & Mr Gert Grobler who have
all contributed so much to the NEW SA. I stand in awe when I
look at the completed 2010 stadiums, and in so doing showing
South Africa’s readiness to Bid for the Olympics and to
host these prestigious games. I am cheered up every time I take
note of the vibrant colors that depict our nation, with a National
flag (The second most popular flag in the world) that says it
all. I am consumed by our music, rhythm, warmth, and greeting
culture of hugging those we meet (Long overdue in the world)
I feel the energy and this uplifts me and those around me. I
invite you all to visit South Africa without delay so you too
can experience and share in the great attributes of a most riveting
South Africa, a Nation I am truly proud of.
