It is unfortunate that we need Chapter 9 Bodies, like the PP and SAHRC to protect the citizenry; not against ‘fundamentalists’ (of any kind), but against the post-Apartheid government and state. An ordinary worker cannot take on a powerful employer (private or public) and endanger his family’s likelihood, because he, as whistle-blower will not be protected, but crucified, – there are so many examples in South Africa. The same applies to an ordinary citizen, who does not have the money to take matters to the courts. If it is taken to the PP, his complaint is not acknowledged and no feedback given, even after two years. It seems the PP prioritises the complaints lodged by political parties and high-profile South Africans. The irony of the matter is that the ‘haves’ commit corruption, which take not thousands of rands out of the mouths of the ‘haves-not’, but billions of rands! The citizenry have morals, but the leadership do not know what ‘ethics’ entail.

If we can all think futuristic we can try to act in a way that will enable this world to be a better place.The question is who really cares.
