Well the national anthem doesn’t even reflect the multicultaralism of south
africa. there are 11 official languages and most of the fans aren’t Zulu,
or Sutu. Soccer games generally attract the true africans. I know how you
feel though, I learned the entire national anthem, {except for the
Afrikaans part] and most of the Afrikaaners would laugh at me. They
actually know it usually they just don’t sing it.

Funny. At the beginning when I first read the anthem I thought this was a
great idea, the national anthem should reflect the multicultural identity
of a country. And then I noticed that the fans (so most of the people)
really start singing at the afrikaans / english part. I mean, what is the
excuse ? Eventhough it is not your mother tongue, couldn’t they make the
effort of learning some lines (not event ten !) ? This is very symbolic and
I am quite disappointed the rainbow nation isn’t yet real.

@hipocresia If there are 500,000 chinese (or Taiwanese) in SA that would be
amazing… considering there are less than 5,000,000 whites

@hipocresia up, South African born and bred. In my 28 years on this planet
I’ve only ever met 1 Chinese person who lives in SA. Met many Taiwanese
though. However I really do doubt hat there are 500,000 Chinese/Taiwanese
in SA. But the ones that are here are welcome – this is the rainbow nation,
right?

Anyway, I think the white bloke welling up during the Nkosi bit around
49sec is more symbolic of how far SA has come.

south africa is a an amazing country, but its soooo expensive to stay their
and such little jobs, like a ps3 console cost 6500 rand, thats one of the
reasons im living in canada right now.

South African, not Australian. Americans can never tell the difference
between British, Australians or South Africans.
