“According to some – “there’s an ugly reality that we can’t sweep under the rug; that apartheid benefitted White South Africans at the cost of all others.”
Since 1970 the budget for black education was raised by 30% per year every year. More than any other government department.
During the period 1955 -1984 the amount of black school students increased 31 times from 35,000 t0 1,096 000
Amongst the adults of South Africa, 71% could read and write (80% between the ages 12 and 22). Compare in South Africa, the whites built 15 new classrooms for blacks every working day, every year. At 40 children per class, it meant space for an additional 600 students every day!!!
In 1985 there were 42,000 blacks at 5 universities in South Africa, about the sam amount at the universities of the homelands (another 40,000 at another five).
On an article titled “Die Afrikaner” of 11 Feb 1987, the quarterly magazine cal;led “Vox Africana” Nr. 29 4/87 stated that: South Africa had 4.8 million whites and 18.2 million Blacks in 1987. The whites paid 77% of the taxes and the blacks only 15%… despite this, 56% of the government budget was spent on blacks.
Even Lord Deedes admitted: “White South Africa grew to become the economic giant of the continent, the other members of the Commonwealth virtually sank into poverty.
At the height of Apartheid in 1978,Soweto had 115 football fields, 3 rugby fields, 4 athletic tracks, 11 cricket fields, 2 golf courses, 47 tennis courts, 7 swimming pools built to Olympic standards, 5 bowling alleys, 81 netball fields, 39 children play parks, and countless civic halls, movie houses and clubhouses.
In addition to this, Soweto had 300churches, 365 schools, 2 Technical Colleges, 8 clinics, 63 child day-care centres, 11 Post Offices and its own fruit and vegetable market.
There were 2300 registered companies that belonged to black businessmen, about 1000 private taxi companies. 3% of the 50,000 vehicle owners in 1978 were Mercedes Benz owners. Soweto along had more private vehicles than the entire white population of the USSA at the time. Today Soweto has more modern shopping malls like Dobsonville shopping Centre. In 2005 the Protea Gardens Mall was opened, followed by the Baramall Shopping Centre and the Jabulani Shopping Complex and the Maponya Mall. Experts say that Soweto has as much as 25% oversupply of retail space.
Next door to Baragwanath is the St John’s Eye Clinic. The clinic was world famous for the treatment of Glaucoma, Cataracts, traumatic eye injuries and rare tropical diseases.
Baragwanath in 1978 employed 450 medical doctors in full-time service. It treated 112,000 in-patients and 1.62-million outpatients per year. The children and infant death rate with 343.8 per 1000 was lower that Harlem in New York.
In 1982 alone this hospital performed 898 heart operations of world quality. Ironically – 90% of the blood donors for this hospital were WHITES who donated blood free of charge, totally voluntarily – to save BLACK lives. (Quoted from The Citizen, April 1987.)
Whites have already given blacks their blood. What more so they want?
NOW THIS INFORMATION HAS BEEN HIDDEN LONG ENOUGH.
DIE WERKLIKE STORIE VAN APARTHEID
(Nie soos deur die “Reënboog Regering” vertel word nie)
Volgens sommige – is daar ‘n lelike werklikheid wat nie onder die mat ingevee kan word dat apartheid blanke Suid Afrikaners ten koste van alle ander bevoordeel het nie.
O, regtig? Wie se werklikheid is dit? Laat ons dit toets.
Laat ons sien wie onder apartheid voordeel getrek het.
Sedert 1970 is die begroting vir swart onderwys jaarliks met 30% verhoog. Meer as enige ander regerings-departement.
Tydens die periode 1955 – 1984 het die aantal swart skoliere/studente 31 maal van 35,000 tot 1,096,000 vermeerder.
65% swart Suid Afrikaanse kinders het skool bygewoon in vergelyking met Egipte – 64%, Nigerië – 57%, Ghana – 52%, Tanzanië -60% en Ethiopië -29%.
Onder volwassenes vanSuid Afrika, kon 71% lees en skryf (80% tussen die ouderdomme van 12 – 22). Vergelyk – in Suid Afrika het blankes elke werksdag elke jaar 15 nuwe klaskamers vir swartes opgerig! Teen 40 kinders per klas, het dit elke dag plek vir addisioneel 500 studente spasie beteken.
In 1985 het 42 000 swartes by 5 universiteite studeer – ongeveer dieselfde aantal aan die universiteite van die tuislande (verdere 40,000 by nog vyf).’n Artikel in die tydskrif “Die Afrikaner” van 11 Februarie 1978, het die kwartaallikse tydskrif met naam “Vox Africana” nr 29, verklaar dat Suid Afrika 4.8 miljoen blankes en 18.2 miljoen swartes in 1987 gehad. Blankes het 77% van die belastings betaal en swartes slegs 15% … dit ten spyt … 56% van die regering se begroting was op swartes spandeer.
Tydens Dr. Verwoerd se termyn, het swartes se lewens-standaarde jaarliks teen 5.4% teen 3.9% van blankes gestyg. Die inflasiekoers was ‘n skamele 2% per jaar, en die prima prys-indeks slegs 3,9% per jaar. Huishoudelike besparing was so groot dat Suid Afrika geen buitelandse lenings vir normale ekonomiese uitbreiding benodig het nie.
Selfs Lord Deedes het erken: “Blanke Suid Afrika het tot die ekonomiese reus van Afrika gegroei, terwyl die ander lede van die gemenebes feitlik tot armoede gesink het.”
Tydens die hoogtepunt van apartheid in 1978, het Soweto oor die volkgende beskik: 115 voetbalvelde, 7 swembaddens volgens Olimpiese standaarde gebou, 5 Rolbalbane, 81 Netbal velde, 39 kinder speelparke, en talle burgersale, bioskope en klubhuise.
Daarbenewens het Soweto ook 300 kerke, 365 skole, 2 Tegniese Kolleges, 8 klinieke, 63 kindersirg sentrums, 11 Poskantore en sy eie vrugte en groentemark.
Daar was 23 geregistreerde maatskappye wat aan swart sakelui behoort het; ongeveer 1000 private takso-maatskappye. 3% van die 50,000 voertuig-eienaars het Mercedes Benz motors gehad. Soweto alleen het meer versorging, taksis, skole, kerke en sport-fasiliteite as meeste onafhanklike lande in Afrika gehad. Suid Afrika se swartes het oor meer private voertuie as die totale blanke bevolking van die USSR beskik.
Daar is vandag moderne winkelsentrums soos Dobsonville Sentrum. Die Protea-Tuine Sentrum is in 2005 geopen, gevolg deur Baramall Winkelsentrum en die Jabulani Winkel Kompleks en Maponya Sentrum. Deskundiges sê dat Soweto beskik oor 35% te veel groothandel-spasie.
Die grootste hospitaal in die wêreld, Baragwanath, met 3200 beddens, en tydens sy spitstyd gedurende apartheid met byna 8000 staflede, het 23 operasie teaters wat met die modernste mediese toerusting in die wêreld toegerus is. Swartes is hier behandel, geopereer … teen ten volle staatskoste aan die blanke belastingbetalers vir onbeperkte tye. Die begroting vir hierdie hoepitaal was – en is – meer as die jaarklikse begroting van meeste klein ledesate van die VVO.
Die St. John Oogkliniek is langs Baragwanath geleë. Die kliniek is wêreldberoemd vir behandeling van Glaukoma, Katarakte, traumatiese oog beserings en seldsame tropiese siektes.
Baragwanath het in 1978 450 mediese dokters vol aan diens gehad. Dit het 112,000 buitepasiënte en 1.62w miljoen binnepasiënte per jaar behandel. Die kinder- en baba dodetal met 34.8 per 1000 was laer as Harlem in Nieu-York.
In 1982 alleen is 898 hart-operasies van wêreldgehalte n hierdie hospitaal uitgevoer. Ironies genoeg … 90% bloedskenkers vir hierdie hospitaal was blankes wat bloed vrywillig en totaal gratis geskenk het om swart lewens te spaar. (Aanhaling uit The Citizen, 2 April 1978).
Blankes het reeds hulle bloed aan swartes gegee. Wat meer wil hulle hê?
