Nyanga

Let me talk about South Africa because I am indigenous South African, but I've done research in the whole continent, which I'm not even getting funding for a self-funded project, trying to find out exactly how we live because I'm advantaged to speak so many languages in South Africa, though, being taught, I can speak Nyanga, I can speak Bemba, I can speak Israeli. That's how I'm blessed. And now I know who I am, I know my roots, and I've encountered such things.

In Constantia, Durbanville, half an hour tops I saw on the group the other day, the truck is there repairing the light. The same services you have to for the same complaint in Mitchellsplain, any other community on the Cape Flats, it's maybe a week or two that you have to wait. So a well run city for who? When we keep on saying that the DA is doing the best and we keep on showcasing and saying that you know what, in comparison to the ANC, near Clarence, we cannot keep doing that comparison.

Is not the Democratic Alliance. It is other parties who are still understanding and comprehending the roots and where they come from. Okay, I'm going to restrict you to three minutes so we can kind of, in a nice way, equitable way, kind of share the time. But let's go to Dereline. Dereline, your view. Travis, Action ESA is not yet. Are you guilty? Okay. Sorry. Action ESA is not here to perpetuate the inequality that's already existing in the Western Cape, especially on the Cape Flats.

I think by now we all know what is unfolding on the Cape Flats, and we all know the challenges, we all know the shortcomings. I want to speak about the solutions, the solutions that Action ESA has to offer the residents of the Cape Flats. First and foremost, you all know I'm an activist, I'm very passionate about substance use disorder, and I recognize the many moms who have to flee from their homes because that's where it starts: you know, being violated, being attacked by their very family members, their very children. As Action ESA, we will ensure that we have safe spaces, safe spaces for

Solutions that are going to be worthy of our time and consideration. You come with solutions. You're solutions-oriented. Is that a personality or what? Is that a deep faith in the people that you grew up with, in your social history, in the community? You got a sense of what is possible here? I mean, you know, when you grow up on the Cape Flats, you have to be solution-driven. When there's no meal to eat, you think about the next meal. You gotta make a plan.

You really have shown us a way to deal with apartheid spatial planning. This could easily be replicated in other townships. Absolutely. You know, for us as Ard Labs, we've always kind of believed that your greatest investment that you can make is investing in people. And that has always kind of been part of our mission. We want to see the reconstruction of communities. And I mean, over the last couple of years, we've seen that, how we've been able to kind of start the journey from the Cape Flats.

So until you address the social economic conditions of the Cape Flats, so you'll pump money, billions, and everything to be another wasteful expenditure because you are not dealing with the road crosses of what drives such time in such areas like you in in the Western Cape in the Cape Flats in Parts. So to me, that's a problem that it's a
