Why the hell is Julius Malema the ANCYL president?

I am now beginning to believe Mangosuthu Buthelezi when he said Julius Malema is a spoilt brat who does not know when to keep his mouth shut or when to comment. The young man is busy dragging his name in the mud. He was the one who said in public that Thabo Mbeki should leave the presidency, he then said he will kill for zuma, the list is endless. Later, he attacked the IFP, actually Buthelezi. Now, this one takes the cake, he recently aggressed Minister of Education, Naledi Pandor. This is what he had to say:

In a copy of the letter addressed to Pandor, the African National Congress Youth League leader said on Thursday: "I acknowledge that the remarks I made against you were uncalled for and might have disappointed and hurt you.

"I write this letter to unconditionally apologise for those remarks."

For how long will the so called youth of South Africa let him disrespect people like this. I think someone should announce in public that he needs to go. I am tired of him.

For how long will the ANC excuse the utterance of this young man?

Ek is alweer at it...

What will the world be like if we were immortal?

A must read book...

I went to Cavendish Square with a friend on Saturday, the 31st of Jan and I decided to step into a book shop (Exclusive books) to scout for something interesting to read. I bumped into a very interesting yet expensive book. The name of the book is Hungochani: The History of a Dissident Sexuality in South Africa. By Marc Epprecht.

Apparently, "hungochani" is a Shona word for m2m (man to man) sex and the author argues that m2m is not a European thing that's why it has these indigenous names unlike bread called "borotho" from the Afrikaans word "brood".

Homosexuality - or hungochani as it is known in Zimbabwe - has been denounced by many politicians and church leaders as an example of how Western decadence has corrupted African traditions. However, a bold new gay rights movement has emerged in several of the countries of the region since the 1980s, offering an exciting new dimension in the broad struggle for human rights and democracy unfolding on the continent.

I read bits and pieces of the book and from the fact that it captured my attention, I must have it, I want it badly. If you do have a copy, pass it over I beg.

Is treating people equally such a bad thing?

I have been observing a lot of things happening around me lately. Amongst those that did take place, there is one thing that is concerning me a lot. People aren't treated equally, and given the same respect.

If you are at work and you observe the smooth talker regarded as elite what do you do? Is the guy at the corner or the middle of the office who is doing his or her work in silence a stupid person? People tend not to realize that we all have different personalities and if you colleague's personality is versatile then most of the time he/she will be the first person who gets a promotion or a raise. What about the silent hardworking dude who only talk when he/she want information from a colleague?

I believe good management start from home, if one especially a boss or a supervisor start treating his/her colleagues differently then that shows how well his/her family foundation is build.

Mandela vs. Obama

The title is low I know, but I saw this title on my way to lunch today. I got fierce. Actually the title reads as follows," Is Mandela = Obama?".

I had so much to say, but now I can't put everything on paper. The only thing I can say is that: Obama did not fight for freedom but Mandela did. Now I rest my case...

Clearly the person who wrote that title has no clue about History.
