Ok. The world knows. We made it to 128th out of 133 for crime. Now what will the ANC regime do about it? Nothing of course except deny it, attack the report and call the authors racist.
CRIME, health and hygiene have hurt South Africa’s ranking in the World Economic Forum’s travel and tourism index for 2009.
The country slipped from 61 to 60 in the overall index, which takes into account a number of categories like cultural assets and natural resources, as well as international conferences and exhibitions.
In the category for safety and security, SA was ranked 128th out of 133 countries.
Its score was close to that of Nigeria (133) and Pakistan (132), Rapport newspaper reported yesterday.
South Africa was 94th in the health and hygiene category. Its ranking was not only influenced by its life expectancy of 51 years and HIV/Aids prevalence, but also by a lack of medical personnel and access to sanitation.
The report warned that the health of SA’s workers had to be addressed urgently to secure the survival of the travel and tourism sector.
South Africa was ranked 22nd in terms of natural resources and 45th for cultural assets. Its transport infrastructure (43rd) and efficient regulation of the tourism sector (26th) were also scored.
The report classified SA hotel prices as “reasonable” and found that visa requirements should not discourage visitors. Switzerland topped the rankings, followed by Austria and Germany.

Crime will be sorted out by simply not accepting cases where there isn't a clearly indentifiable suspect, as reported earlier.
Precisely. If only those damn pesky 'victims' wouldn't report crime, there would be no crime stats and the figures would look good. So logical really. Tut.
Latest police trick: the sergeant involved with your "case" pesters you for a bribe to "facilitate" matters. You refuse, and report the matter to the superintendent of the police station. The superintendent turns the tables on you by threatening to prosecute YOU for trying to bribe a policeman.
Yeah, that will keep the pesky victims from bothering the police and accusing them of corruption: threaten them right back.
