Repatriation Costs - Turning Of The Tide

Finally some commonsense is being used in how to deal with all the illegal immigrants within South Africa's borders as the country needs to sort itself out. Not what the locals are doing, but more so with the repatriation costs paid for by those countries who have illegal migrants living in SA.

Any other country would be accused of racism if they implemented this system.

In the last 12 months over 51 000 illegal migrants have been sent home at a cost of more than $4 million and many more are being deported daily. This week 55 buses have been hired by the Malawian Government to repatriate more than 2500 Malawians. This is on top of the 14 buses used last week to rescue those in fear of their lives after a Malawian had killed a local resident. The Malawian Government along with Ghana and Nigeria stepping in and chartering flights and buses is something new and how serious the situation is.

The fear of xenophobic attacks is a reality as the local population has had enough and issued an ultimatum that if you are an illegal migrant in SA after the 30th June then you are not welcome and thus not safe. Tensions must be high in the communities to get to this point of no return.

The SA Government says it does not stand by this warning yet they cannot stop what is now taking place. Thousands of Zimbabweans are leaving because they know this is no joke and they have no other choices left.

This month we have seen that there have been many police road blocks with the aim of checking for undocumented illegal migrants. Those found not to have the correct documentation with many having been found with fraudulent paperwork are arrested and deported. This is something fairly new and the 30th June warning has the police finally doing some work.

The President Cyril Ramaphosa has to show the people who voted for him that he is doing his work and has stated he will be charging the countries for their people being sent home. Many have over stayed with their visas no longer valid and have broken the laws of the country. Those illegals in correctional facilities which is estimated at around 30 000 will also be heading home at the cost to those countries. Why must SA pay the bill for housing those that broke the law and the country is no longer playing this game.

I am not sure how many illegals are in the country, but it has to be many millions somewhere between 5 and 15 million. With the unemployment rate ever increasing the locals have drawn a line in the sand saying enough is enough.

You can understand why the illegals are leaving as the communities where they reside know who the illegals are living amongst them. The people have turned on those from other African countries and this is not just talk as they are dead serious about this warning. My one and only Zimbabwean employee is seriously scared and is contemplating leaving even though he has legitimate paper work.

I had been wondering for many years how this open border of allowing everyone in was going to be resolved and here we are with 17 days left to the deadline. The people of SA are doing the governments work which should never have been allowed in the first place.

The crime stats will never tell you that the foreigners are the ones behind the cable theft, but everyone knows it is the case or a high percentage are foreigners. When you are not documented with fingerprints in the national database you are like a ghost and are free to commit whatever crime you seem fit. In SA everyone who has an identity card has their finger prints on file and having undocumented people is a big problem.
