As one of the bloggers simply put it, the trains are in same conditions as they were when Inkatha jumped on them massacred millions, as I understand it, zuma was also a VP, so do you want to tell us that he doesn't know poor state public transport SA is in? when he finds something wrong, he must fire the guy who was min of pub transport, I think his name is Ndebele not deploy him elsewhere during this meaningless reshuffle.

In a press statement after his train trip, President (the spear) Zuma's spokesman Jackson (the drunkard) denied the rumour that he is planning to place tolls on all the railway lines in Gauteng. "We know that the service is very poor, after all it was inherited from apartheid so we are not to blame, but we must upgrade it and to do this we need to find money. We are however not considering putting e-tolls on the lines as this would not look good coming so soon after the e-toll problems on the highways." When asked where the money would come from the spokesman replied, "Well, we've increased Eskom tariffs by over 100% and we're about to start increasing water tariffs by a similar amount, so I suppose we'll just have to put up the price of a train ticket by 150% - after all this is free enterprise. If you don't like it there are alternatives like get a bicycle or walk or you can even buy a skateboard, they're really cheap."
@Onee and then we respond with being cynical when that artist (4gotten his name now) pens a songs which says blacks are stupid, cause really its stupid to keep voting for a system which only serves to dis-empower you, think about it, these poor ppl living in these squalor conditions most of them and their children are victims of vicious crime sweeping thru the country uncontrollably, they are victims due to the fact they have no resources, how can they not want a better life for their children, how can they sign the future of their children to the live of grinding poverty, so i ask, why were black ppl angry when that artist wrote a song which tells us the truth about majority of us, cause it was majority blacks who voted zuma to power, not that there was any doubts even back that he was a disaster waiting to happen, some of us said this we are told we were coconuts, now what does it take for a black person in Africa to say, I deserve better life for myself and my children? or they are just content to be just peasants?

He also pretends that all he needs to is visit around on a coupla trains, walk through a taxi rank and take a ride on a bus and then he be au fait with all the problems of the South African transport infrastructure.
And then he wants my vote?????
Its been like this for the past 60 years, Mr President - it didn't happen overnight...
And then he tells us it cain't be fixed immediately!
We know that! We watching and listening to the fat cats every year for 60 years telling us is gonna be fixed - then nothing happens!!!

The last time I checked Ministers of Human settlement slept in a shack@ Diepsloot in order to observe how people live in a shack with a promise that He will change their lives. Diepsloot is still the same as it was before his visits. So even this one is a stunt, by next year this time it will be the same. It was a joyride.Report Abuse

In a press statement after his train trip, President (the spear) Zuma's spokesman Jackson (the drunkard) denied the rumour that he is planning to place tolls on all the railway lines in Gauteng. "We know that the service is very poor, after all it was inherited from apartheid so we are not to blame, but we must upgrade it and to do this we need to find money. We are however not considering putting e-tolls on the lines as this would not look good coming so soon after the e-toll problems on the highways." When asked where the money would come from the spokesman replied, "Well, we've increased Eskom tariffs by over 100% and we're about to start increasing water tariffs by a similar amount, so I suppose we'll just have to put up the price of a train ticket by 150% - after all this is free enterprise. If you don't like it there are alternatives like get a bicycle or walk or you can even buy a skateboard, they're really cheap."Voetsak ANC! Voetsak!
