By permission, being a Pioneer
Trendsetter or fashion guru, designer or creator, they all have a clean sheet to work on. Nobody to ask the questions and receive answers no one to ask direction to, and definitely not a sole to ask permission from.
What is the English word, when you do work that is unprecedented, When you walk the road, not less traveled, but in non existence, when you …………………………..aaaah being a pioneer.
That is how I perceive myself. Being a pioneer, has no guidance in books, or info pages at the local Library. Being a pioneer, has only one intellect, your wit, your vision for the future, your endurance and the believe in yourself.
The most difficult thing about pioneering is to find a sane living society, that will not drive you crazy in expectations and questions, with no answers, for the answers will come in time.
When I had to make the choice in the middle 1990’s, I did not really know what to expect from myself or from my country.
I knew only a few definite facts.
1. I will have to give up my dream, my heart’s desire and the soul of my being, to become a rock a roll star. If I wanted to be taken serious in a conservative society, as a women and an A-politician, I could not become famous as a rock star. I had to become a “FOXSTAR”
2. I will have to give up the best part of my life, and live a life in moderate comfort and happiness; till I am old enough to be taken serious, and also till the time is right.
3. I will have nobody to guide me, will have no support and could only go into the future, with “blind” hope.
I am proud to say I have no arrived at the doors of my A- Political career and life. The past 15 years I have managed to survive all possible humiliations and other incidents cruel and true to the human nature.
What I am bringing to my country and also to the world is my UCHeerengracht VETO’99. The veto that is targeted at the prevention of a 2/3 majority rule of one Political Party.
The manifesto of my VETO is service delivery friendly and business orientated, with enough space for Political Parties to exist.
In 1 year from now we shall have a national election. After this election, we would probable still have our present President Jacob Zuma, for another term. It might change if there be an internal power struggle form the A.N.C.Y.L who would like nothing more but to have their leader , the young Julius Malema as the President a.s.a.p.
In al reality, should our president survive next year’s election, we can definitely predict that in the year 2019, we will have the young A.N.C.Y.L as our president.
The public of South Africa will have to come to terms, on the choices they have.
Will they be happy with yet another African Dictator, that will reap all he can from the resources of our country, Using the uneducated and the poor to put him in power, and when he is their treat them with contempt.
How can I say this? An animal has only one skin, it might flaw in winter, but it is always the same.
Propaganda might it be, but the smoke is up, and the proof is eating the pudding.
The problem with the young, is when they think what they are doing is seen the first time, that they are unique, and that it is cool to transform in such mediocrity, and that they are innocent and above integrity.
We are in a new democracy, and I think we have earned the right to be frank about some people’s cultural fashionable taboos, and their arrogance.
To be seen in public with extravagant expensive clothing costing as one outfit more that what 5 families might earn in one month, could be a good leader?
I have nothing to say to this young Leader, for his integrity do not jell with my sense of dedication to the wellbeing of a country we are both living in.
The world is in recession, and bankruptcy is knocking on all our doors. The western world does not have abundance to give to Africa anymore. Our present Political Party Rule is not above the power of recession and bankruptcy.
What will happen to the world and our country if we have to be set back another 100 years, on the same mentality that was so destructive in Africa the past 100 years?
My radical feeling about this young leader. If you have a scale, in the one scale you have a young typical “Apartheids” regime thinking youth , wanting to become president, in the other scale you have the typical “Robert Mugabe” thinking youth wanting to become president, and these two scales are held up by me, the power of pioneering.
Why would you want any of these two to become President of the country? Both mentalities have proven that they are wrong for our country……………
15 Years I have dedicated to make a difference in my country for the good. The next 7 years will become the most interesting time of my life. Success is already pass knocking on my door. With good intellect, planning and strategic thinking, I shall bring a new era of Political Infrastructure to South Africa.
All I have to do now is to go public. Therefore I need money.
