Stay in SA - Ramaphosa urges young white people | gerbjan
"This is the South Africa that should deliver a better life for all of us," Ramaphosa said.
He said he wants the South Africans in the diaspora to come back home and contribute to growing South Africa. "I don't want young white South Africans to leave the country."If I could, I would tie them to a tree," he said as he smiled."There is room for all of us to play a role.""Join me in making this great country of ours great again," he said, echoing Donald Trump's famous slogan emblazoned on red caps.
In a reception hall, where there were pictures of wine bottles and a vineyard turning a dark autumnal red, Ramaphosa said he believed the glass was not half empty, but half full for South Africa.He admitted that the ANC government of the past 25 years had made mistakes and that some of those mistakes led to corruption.
While the farmers and businessmen listened in respectful silence, they applauded when he said they were determined to rid the country of corruption."And that is jail," he said, again to applause.
