We have a lot of consistent issues with electricity breakdowns. Even before cables were introduced which caused mass disruptions specifically the line including Khabo Makhoba Place has been very chaotic and disruptive resulting in MULTIPLE protests and fires from resident. Secondly, the water issue is very essential to us. The President has announced an increase in the Rand water but will townships benefit from this addition? We can go a whole week without water and if we are lucky a few hours one day to fill our buckets and tanks. It is upsetting.

The people have taken it upon themselves to be a "community forum" they walk people after dark which comes in particularly handy during power cuts. It is also relatively clean with regular trash pick ups. There are businesses in the area that support the community in essentials like buying candles or charging phones at the local KFC.

We have pool but a community center can go a long way, where people can gather and be constructive. Also, it is time for solar street lights, because it becomes very dark and dangerous.

This municipality gives slightly better service delivery. However, the DA ( so called white skinned) that are running the municipality are TOO RACIST and think that white skinned people are superior to other color skins. What steenhuizen and jp smith and their click forget is that the outer skins are just that, skins. They all will die one day as will everyone else and their bodies will stink and rot just like all of the peoples.
Only stupid, foolish, idiotic people think nonsense. They hatred of the Palestinians is so blatant that it is sickening. They want people in their party to 'toe the line' of their blind support of the zionists. They are hypocrites. steebnhauzen goes to zelensky in ukraine to suck up to him because he is jew. Yet he does not allow his party memebr to speak what is his right to say. It had nothing to do with politics. It was a humanistic support he expressed.
Yet there mad zino supporters of the DA demand that many votes in parliament should be in secret and what their conscious demands. How low can one go to lie, cheat and be hypocritical?

ALL MANKIND ARE SIMILAR
Al-Qur’an: chapter 49 Verse 13: “O mankind! We (i.e. Allāh) created you from a single (pair) of a male and a female, and made you into nations and tribes, that ye may know each other (not that ye may despise (each other). Verily the most honoured of you in the sight of Allāh is (he who is) the most righteous of you. And Allāh has full knowledge and is well acquainted (with all things.)”
Mankind was one nation and over the ages through migration we became different nations. Yet we are the same and we share the same earth, and needs and feelings etc.
Al-Qur’an: Chapter 10 Verse 19: “Mankind was but one nation, but differed (later). Had it not been for a word that went forth before from Thy Lord, their differences would have been settled between them.”
Al-Qur’an: Chapter 2 Verse 213: “Mankind was one single nation, and Allāh sent Messengers with glad tidings and warnings; and with them He (i.e. Allāh) sent the Book in truth, to judge between people in matters wherein they differed; but the People of the Book, after the clear Messages came to them, did not differ among themselves, except through selfish contumacy. Allāh by His Grace Guided the believers to the Truth, concerning that wherein they differed. For Allāh guided whom He (i.e. Allāh) will to a path that is straight.” (Cf: chapter 2 verse 272; chapter 19 verse 76; chapter 28 verse 56; chapter 58 verse 22; chapter 16 verses 104-105)
DO NOT THINK OF BEING BETTER THAN OTHERS:
Al-Qur’an: chapter 49 Verse 11: “O ye who believe! Let not some men among you laugh at others: it may be that the (latter) are better than the (former): nor let some women laugh at others: It may be that the (latter are better than the (former): nor defame nor be sarcastic to each other, nor call each other by (offensive) nicknames: Ill-seeming is a name connoting wickedness, (to be used of one) after one has believed: And those who do not desist are (indeed) doing wrong.”
STAND OUT FOR TRUTH AND JUSTICE EVEN IF IT IS AGAINST YOUR OWN SELF:
Al-Qur’an: Chapter 4 verse 135: “O ye who believe in Allāh! Stand out firmly for justice, as witnesses to Allâh, even as against yourselves, or your parents, or your kin, and whether it be (against) rich or poor: for Allāh can best protect both. Follow not the lusts (of your hearts), lest ye swerve, and if ye distort (justice) or decline to do justice, Verily Allāh is well- acquainted with all that ye do.”

Rates are not used to maintain the infrastructure. Pot holes everywhere, no working street lights, constant burst pipes , failing electricity supplies due to local infrastructure failure. Filthy streets, the M7 has become a death trap. Stapleton road is a hazard not only to your car but your life since the floods. And the list goes on and on!

The only saving grace for our ward is our DA councillor who goes above and beyond to keep the lights and water on! And is our voice at a local level!

They are unable to perform basic accounting functions, charge the incorrect amount for refuse (charging me for a business), including charging amounts for a previous year, and then when contacted said they will send it to their supervisor. No response. After several emails to follow up they just start ignoring my emails.... this has been going on for more than a year now. I stopped paying. I even tried contacting the EC public protector - no reply.

The HR at municipal is employing Un-qualified people to do the work . It took 3 weeks for municipal to install a water meter when they finally came the municipal workers did not know how to install the meter. They said we don’t know how. The street lights are all broken there is not 1 line mens employed to do repairs.

Nothing

I would give out pamphlets with this information on it. 1 to stop following each other. It doesn’t look sane (normal) think for yourself 2 No one likes an arrogant person 3 if you don’t like your job quite 4 All roads needs to be resurfaced 5 we need teachers who specialize in inclusive education to teach children with special needs. 6 learn the rules of the road rule 101 stop at a four way stop and at a red robot 7 we want to sit in a clean park and feel safe, and the beggers won’t bother us.

George is one of the most effective municipalities and strives to provide good services for all the residents. At least the taxes that we pay are used for the benefit of the town .

Living in a town where the roads are pothole free and service is good.

Get rid of the corrupt ANC government

Ethekwini has a failing infrastructure, dreadful service delivery on Water, electricity and waste removal , corruption very evident and being addressed by court action, and the most expensive Rates base in the country.

General infrastructure is not managed.
Service delivery is almost non-existent .

We have a neighbourhood association and the community jumps in to full the gaps where the municipality fail.

Ongoing strikes and no service delivery. Residents are still paying for services every month . No waste removal for weeks and water readings have been estimated resulting in a high levies end of month. Pipe bursts are not attended to , leaving residents without water for days while fire hydrants are open and water get wasted.

Corruption rules here. Stealing money is all they do very well. And if you're white, they demand you pay then kick you because "you owe them" for having a white skin.

waste management staff littering as collecting the garbage that is intact and easy to load on the truck.

Street lights in Coltman Road on 24hrs, reported it many times on NMM application on Android.

Safety measures allow to much gangsterism to be established.

Lack of play area for children in this area so street play is practised and it is so dangeress.

Freedom and conservation.

Shorter terms of rule for political parties in the country.
