World Cup 2010

I write this article from Oliver Tambo International Airport (formerly Jan Smuts Airport) in Johannesburg. This airport is one of the largest in the world. I am proud to be a Neighboring South Africa (SA), as I come from Swaziland, and am always interested in their economy. I've always wanted to know how they themselves afloat and out of tempo Many governments of the keep world. SA is our big brother, and in the SADC or COMESA. However, I have noticed one thing in amazement, when I travel to South Africa, "Nothing is free '.

I am always surprised at which would have more and more products and services to learn one pay-for in South Africa, while it's free in other countries. I'm sure you think I'm referring to European countries or other developed country governments. No, it's not the case; I am referring to neighboring countries like Swaziland, Lesotho, Namibia and Mozambique. Later today I am going to call the case, as an exclusive example.

Every cent counts in South Africa, I bet. If you are driving on SA roads, you pay. If you always cash in the bank, you pay, until it was (no money in your account It is not possible, so that your account is active, in particular) business accounts. If you after a few public toilets in major cities, you pay. If you deposit cash, (I mean to pay South African banks charge the highest in the world). If you are on wireless Internet hot spot ', you will pay. When You park your car on the road, you pay. If you want to see national TV, you pay. Given a chance I would ask South Africa for what they are proud of their value Buy to say, but only freely in the country. I bet if it's free, it would be free in other neighboring countries.

One can ask: "Why is the service should be free?" The reasons for free service vary and are influenced by the intensions of the agent. I do not want to the grounds but the fact that some are paid for services in SA Focus free in other countries.

A general understanding is that each his own Situation is good and evil. Starting with the good, I say, for SA, every cent gain by all means defines the strength of the economy. Several sectors of SA is doing well. This include tourism, transportation, manufacturing, communications, entertainment, education, etc. I also think SA public budgets are hardly limited. As such is the Government to pay a reasonable amount of grants (pension) to the elderly, HIV-infected persons, for each child that is born, and several other social responsibility to pay.

Argue the point with a South African colleague, I have a very interesting answer: "This is in Swaziland some services and products are free to define why the economy of the country down. "I agreed with the feelings and took no offense at all. Unfortunately, the conversation grew more heated and I decided to stop expressing my opinion on this subject. However, I would have loved to take them further and to discuss the negative effects, such as the alarming Crime, corruption, and many other undesirable things.

We all know that South Africa will be hosting the Football World Cup 2010. I wonder how cheap World Cup tickets will be for the native African as well as people from around the world. I can not imagine the cost of other basic services. I would like advice on the preparation of the 2010 World Cup to bring an additional extra half of their total budgets. Also not bank on not the current prices for future prices forecast, as this can lead to misjudgements your opinion. For your information, price hike like crazy in SA. Is it not fair, when are precautioned with an unexpected situation? I think it is fair.

Let me straight to my example. Today I travel to Zambia Manzini Airport and I've come for free on my laptop via wireless Internet connection. The service is free only for travelers when they reach the airport terminal. I am sure that that is not contained in all the ticket, but a courtesy to the passengers of one airline offered, "Swazi Express. I know this because I will not be posted with "Airline Swazi Express. It may be temporarily vacant, but it was free, and I was impressed with how it added a good spice to my travels.

I am afraid for my life and my family, as such, I do not want to, if this article gives me trouble But how would it be if it called the SA and other country governments and business decision makers to expand their thinking when it comes to quantities. I would like indicating that the SA is not actually bad in pricing. As such, I will continue my Web site hosting by SA, because it is right when it is favorable in Swaziland. I also recognize the fact that they generally do not make economic sense to buy something and give it out for free, but it also makes sense to offer some "Limited" Services free of charge.
