South Africa is crumbling — and there are few engineers left to fix it
Video: A Quick Lesson: What Whites really do to Jews in Pogroms and Holocausts
Ive looked at lots of literature over the years where the Jews claim Whites are slaughtering them. They cite pogroms as a nasty feature of their past. And then some pogroms are then called holocausts. But what exactly really happens? Is there any evidence of what exactly transpires between Whites and Jews?
Municipalities and local government authorities in South Africa are bleeding engineers, leaving them severely handicapped when it comes to critical infrastructure maintenance.
The South African Institution of Civil Engineering (SAICE) has published its 2022 Infrastructure Report Card, showing the country’s public service faced a debilitating shortage in engineering skills.
“It is rare to find a municipality that is blessed with a full complement of qualified and experienced personnel in its technical organogram,” the report stated.
“The human capacity to monitor, inspect and maintain the current infrastructure, and to plan for renewal and replacement, has not grown at the same high rate as the portfolio of public assets.”
SAICE said that constrained budgets and inattention to skills development had worsened the situation.
The institution warned that the operation and maintenance of infrastructure were complex and required a cadre of skilled technical professionals to avoid compromising the lifespan of assets through neglect.
“Most municipalities are desperately understaffed in these crucial positions or staffed by people who do not have the required training or experience,” SAICE said.
SAICE’s assessment was based on a comparison of the engineering capability of local government authorities between 2005, 2015, and 2020.
It observed “revealing” trends in the number of civil engineering practitioners appointed with varying levels of technical qualifications.
The institution shared the graphs below comparing how race representation and qualifications levels had changed.
SAICE said although the dramatic increase in the number of black and female practitioners since 2005 was heartening, it was concerning that it was accompanied by a displacement of their older and white counterparts, for two reasons.
“Firstly, as can be deduced from the corresponding graphs of qualifications, too many of those who left were engineers, and their depletion has disrupted the profile of skill sets that are required for effective service delivery,” it explained.
“Secondly, their exit leaves the incoming cadre of bright and eager candidate engineers, technologists and technicians without the mentorship essential to develop engineering judgement and wisdom — something that can
only happen through guided practice.”
The problem explained above is one currently being experienced by Eskom, which has embarked on a programme to re-acquire engineering and technical capability amid a serious skills shortage and lack of mentors to train current employees.
SAICE also said there was an under-representation of engineering professionals at the leadership level, including in the boards of SOCs and senior management in all spheres of government.
South Africa’s infrastructure at risk of failure
SAICE’s report card assessed the state of various infrastructure components in the country — including water, sanitation, roads, ports, rail, electricity, and healthcare — and graded segments of these on the following scale:
A — World-class
B — Fit for the future
C — Satisfactory for now
D — At risk of failure
E — Unfit for purpose
Overall, SAICE gave South Africa’s infrastructure an “at risk of failure” D grading.
Out of all components, only the Gautrain system managed a “World-class” A- rating.
The worst-performing segments were sanitation in areas outside of urban locations, provincial and municipal unpaved roads, and Prasa passenger and branch railway lines, all of which received an “unfit for purpose” E rating.
The newly-added Information and communication technology infrastructure component scored a solid “fit for the future” B grading.
SAICE said this was primarily due to the infrastructure being “almost exclusively” owned by the private sector.
“Dependent as they are on this infrastructure for their income stream, the owners have every incentive to strive for it to be functioning at all times,” it explained. “This condition is supported by high maintenance standards and a continual cycle of investment.”

White Shop: The Myth of German Villainy by Benton L. Bradberry
This is a FANTASTIC BOOK written by a well travelled American Military Officer. It tears all the lies about the Germans that have been told by the Jews and the Allies to shreds. I have a copy. It is the best book written about the Germans by a non-German since WW2.
