Tshwane not so good as Sowetan make belief!
The journalist painted very nice picture of the effectiveness of the coalition government in Tswhane which is so far removed from reality as the east from the west. Uge potholes in major route demarcated with plastic barriers for more than 4 months (Rachel DE Beer next to subway and John Street corner Willem Cruywagen to name only 2) Major intersections at Daan se Wet Nel and Waterbok streets and Sylvia intersection with Rachel DE Beer not working . Water pipe repairs that take weeks to be affected and if and when done most spring leaks again within a day or 2. The water reservoir in Heatherdale that flooded Belgium campus on at least 3 occasions. Hammanskraal without drinking water and yet millions of liters of drinking water wasted. There are also hundreds of streetlights that are not working that leads to increased ******** activities. HOW ON EARTH CAN THIS BE REGARDED AS EFFICIENT? Maybe the journalist was paid to write a positive article, but surely not factual bases on the reality on the ground

Misleading
two weeks ago Sowetan ran a promotion for the Woo intel smartphone, which coupons had to be collected for two weeks and then that would qualify one to get a cellphone worth R1900 for R999.. to my suprise i went to Game stores yesterday and anybody without coupons could purchase the cellphone for R999..<br> <br> that is so unfair because some of us had to buy Sowetan for a whole two weeks without missing it,to collect the coupons..im really pissed and not impressed at all...
