Thanks regardless.

I'm an engineer and within state owned companies this is the truth, white men don't get promoted. So that is why most of us leave the country for better jobs in markets where your skin colour has no influence on your value to a company.

Oh, I'm sure it's true - I have friends and family who have similar anecdotes. I just don't want to say anything in a video that I cannot back up easily.

2018-08-18 21:12:31 UTC  

@Bird_Goes_Beep i believe this kind of study won't even be undertaken by the social 'sciences' researchers for fear of being excommunicated from their research communities...

2018-08-18 21:12:48 UTC  

I'd believe that.

2018-08-18 21:15:06 UTC  

@Bird_Goes_Beepmake your video about BBBEE rather than just the one thing willem said. How it discrimates againsts the minority etc etc.

2018-08-18 21:15:47 UTC  

It's an idea. I'm actually doing an analysis of a debate between Ernst Roets and Andile from the BLF.

2018-08-18 21:16:37 UTC  

Maybe you could contact ECSA (engineering Council of South Africa) maybe they have figures on the amount of members emigrating. Since they also keep track of their member's race maybe that would be insightful. What I can say is that of my Class of graduates (2004) just about all of them including me are working overseas

2018-08-18 21:17:43 UTC  

Yes thats a good idea,they should have data.

2018-08-18 21:17:53 UTC  

That's an excellent idea, thanks.

2018-08-18 21:20:10 UTC  

@Bird_Goes_Beepugh my brain hurts when watching those blf people,there is no intellectual capacity,just a hollow head. I call them #PeaBrains

2018-08-18 21:22:30 UTC  

Oh you are going to love this. A few requests to cover it over the last while since I did the other Roets /BLF debate and this one is even crazier.

2018-08-18 21:22:46 UTC  

Seriously, old Mingey is both terrifying and a lolcow.

2018-08-18 21:24:45 UTC  

On the ECSA members not all graduates register for membership since many of the new graduates emirates promptly after receiving their degree since most of the universities still conform to the Washington accord engineering degrees are recognised in many other countries and they could just as easily apply for professional registration in their new country.

A friend of mine got a bursary from Transnet, with the condition that he work for them for 5 years (I think) after graduation. He will attest to just how much bullshit it is.

2018-08-18 21:26:17 UTC  

Numerous awards, commendations and increased responsibilities but never promoted.

2018-08-18 21:28:16 UTC  

That's why i have my own business. 😉

2018-08-18 21:28:20 UTC  

Many of these companies even don't employ white bursary holders after graduation since there is simply No space for them within their quota. I worked as a engineering university lecturer for 10 years and have seen this happen many Many times

2018-08-18 21:31:01 UTC  

And also many of these bursaries are for 2nd year onwards for 'previously disadvantaged' students since the matric certificate ain't worth the paper it's printed on. So the university's first year of study is used as a kind of pre-screening for bursars

2018-08-18 21:37:05 UTC  

You know what sets up many people for failure is the way matric results are adjusted. I don't know if the public at large knows exactly how it works... But basically if you wrote matric in a historically disadvantaged school and English/afrikaans is not your first or second language and another qualifier I can't remember now you get mahala points on your matric certificate. Like if I remember correctly 8 - 15 percent. So what that means is that universities are allowing people without meeting the entry requirements because of a disadvantage and then at university these people struggle (freaking obviously) and then blaming systemic racism is much easier than admitting maybe you should have studied something else or entered the job market hence the rioting sticking and burning around exam times

2018-08-18 21:37:49 UTC  

~~not to mention public schools already have lower standards~~

2018-08-18 21:39:52 UTC  

So not only do white kids have to deal with a seriously shit public schooling where it was clear as day that teachers are told to teach the kids to pass the test (and no comprehension) and BBBEEE acceptance preference to universities they also had to perform up to 15 percent better just to be measured as equal to their black counterparts

2018-08-18 21:42:58 UTC  

I can go on about the absolute shitstorm that is education in SA for hours upon hours, what I can say is if I had a child in school in SA I would seriously consider private schooling or overseas boarding school. I have seen so many intelligent young folks who have been miserably let down by education systems in SA that it is truly heartbreaking...

2018-08-18 21:42:58 UTC  

Ditsem! @KoueKoffie, you just advanced to level 4!

2018-08-18 21:44:18 UTC  

But I would also caution not all private/home schooling plans are created equal

2018-08-18 21:50:24 UTC  

@KoueKoffie thats why we have curo schools now popping up everywhere in SA. One of my friends worked with them to design the schools.

2018-08-18 22:09:58 UTC  

All I can say is if you have kids investigate the school they are in make sure they get a proper education, and most important of all educate your own kids at home as well! Provide them with the gift of being enquiring. Buy them an old scrapper motorcycle that they have to fix themselves... Enable them

My kids will be home educated for sure.

2018-08-18 23:20:03 UTC  

and I will encourage them to do something like plumbing or butchery.

@Robzombie I read "Notice is hereby given that a terrain inspection will be held on the farms on April 5 2018 at 10am in order to conduct an audit of the assets and a handover of the farm’s keys to the state" and wondered...

@KoueKoffie wie lange wohnst du schon in München? Das ist eine der schönsten Städte die ich schon gesehen habe. 👌
