It is so sad and irrational to ban the country from hosting international sporting events.
Everyone can recall that Mr “Fix” Fikile Mbalula came with an idea of Affirmative action in sports activities such as Rugby, Cricket and those that are dominated by White participants.
This was correct if he also provided a precise strategy of implementing the “Affirmative Action” in these sports codes.
Mr. Mbalula supposed to have come up with the time frame as well.
However, that did not happen.
On Monday, Mbalula out of nowhere decided to ban Athletics South Africa (ASA), Cricket South Africa (CSA), Netball South Africa (NSA) and South African Rugby (SARU) to host international events.
This was irrational because it spearheaded to kill Tourism and our Economy. The banning of these events it means there won’t be many tourists visiting South Africa (SA). This means if no tourist coming to South Africa; the unemployment is being slowly killed.
The business that normally operates during international events will have to close because our local products and services won’t be rendered anymore. That alone drives our Economy down until the immature transformation occurs if how no one knows.
