uybgf | boksburg | No I am not | They don't deliver.In fighting and who is in charge is more importent to them. | ||
Debbie | Yes I am | Best run province | The ease of logging a call. Speedy response, CLEAN SUBURB | ||
Rita | Lennoxton | No I am not | They charge us so much for services, and have load shedding, but they have a big useless building where most of the time the lights are on in the building and car park at night. The whole town is full of potholes and sewer leaks. The street lights are on during the day and off at night. | ||
Sue | Not fully | NMBM has been defunct, under the cANCer for years. We had a DA mayor for a short while but disgruntled cANCer "cadres" were losing out on the money pot and tenders so he was booted out. Since then things have gone from worse to simply horrifying and sad. We now have a coalition in power led by DA; which at the moment seems to be strong. Retief Odendall is visual/visible, on the go, being seen, walking and talking to the people of the bay, addressing their concerns. Street lights are being fixed. Potholes are being fixed. The cable theft is being addressed. He is on the forefront of the water crisis that is crippling the bay, Our streets are being cleaned (I cringe at the dirt/rubbish and general squalour that is evident especially when the cruise ships dock or foreigners hurridly drive through PE to Garden Route etc). Street markings being painted. When people scream, shout, protest and burn tyres (destroying more road infrastructure in the process); because they have set up a shack (egged on by ex cANCer cadres as a 'free vote') where there is no infrustructure at all; the Mayor is there, with his coalition leaders; trying to find solutions to the problem. The only time the cANCer cadres were out and being seen and making empty promises, was near local or general elections. I dont care WHO is in power, they could be pink with purple spots, but just DO YOUR JOB. You are voted in by the people, work FOR THE people. | I love SA, I love Africa; there is no where else like it. All of our people are resilient. There can sometimes be an amazing sense of Ubuntu. But, I do worry about my future; especially with the total collapse of the government health system, Eishkom, looting and general disregard for the people in this country who are taxed to death; and now the threat of "legal landgrab" under the proposed "expropriation bill" which is nothing but a thinly disguised land grab aka Zimbabwe 2.0 | WORK TOGETHER FOR THE GREATER GOOD. Stop worrying about the color of the person for the job; if they are 10000% qualified; support them, dont place obstacles in their path (because they are cutting off your income revenue stream by stopping corruption and trying to save a grid from total collapse). We all know why De Ruyter could'nt do it anymore; it was all sabotage, so the powers that be can point fingers. | |
Theresia | Kraaifontein | No I am not | Stop Squatters along pavements aswell as public toilets. People urinates in public . Loitering of youngsters at houseshops corners . All shebeens must be closed down in our communities and societies .It's a social evil. Stop dumping rubble and dirt on street corners. STOP BUILDING MALLS AND BUILD BIGGER GYMS AND PROVIDE PARKS !!Why did municipality allowed Zone fitness gym to closed down in Brackenfell.? There's enough Malls around Brackenfell . Don't turn humans into zombies!! GYMS | Nothing .... | |

Brendon | Bloemfontein | No I am not | They misuses public funds contributed to fix the whole town and fails to mentain the roads everywhere is potholes tapwater is having too much chemicals it's like they do not know how to measure the chemicals used to clean water and sometimes taps have dirty water so please help us | It's that people are fighting for the services and sometimes are being met but not on time | |
Barbara | Bryanston Sandton | Not fully | Hate the in fighting with other parties instead of getting on with the managing of Johanesburg. Too much talk and not enough action! | ||
John | Oatlands North | No I am not | Failed disfunction al Muni that has many years of failed Audits. Calls to have Mayor and Muni Manager dismissed went legal and Govt intervened. The dissolution of Muni managers and councellirs are key to rebuild a functioning muni. Till then, closure of businesses occur (40 in 2018, pre covid exodus). In Aug 22, 4 busy closing. Consequences is that the 3000 odd employed people feeding the 100 000 unemployed is shrinking. End result is hungry angry residents. Violence like July 2 roots is not something we want in our amazing town. | It's the Ubuntu spirit of our community. | |
Hugh | Sunnyside | No I am not | |||
mike | HEIDELBERG CAPE | No I am not | Service is spotty and bad at best, the most worrisome is that we have to pay full rates for Electricity and water while some pay 30 rand a month. Discrimination at its best. | Small and intimate | |
N ICK | nelspruit | No I am not | poor service delivery | clean enviroment | new management |
Ali | Denneoord | Yes I am | One of the TOP Municipalities Annual Debtor Payment Ratio in excess of 95% | Low Crime rate | We in George have the knowledge and systems in place to help ANY municipality in becoming financially Viable!!! I Started in George more that 20 years ago and the main drive was to neutralize politicians in having any say in the management of Credit Control and Debt Collection. We have maintained Annual payment Ratio's in excess of 95% for the past 6 financial years!!!! |
Patrick | Uvongo | No I am not | Maladministration and Corruption are rife in our Reynkonyeni and UGU District Municipalities. There is never funds budgeted for regular maintenance and thus also physical improvements, but the vultures regularly get above inflation rate salary increases. The recent initiation of the TIDY TOWNS initiative is providing much of the Uvongo areas service deliveries via private sector businesses and individual ratepayer funding. Even government has the cheek to say that they agree and support Private Participation, meantime they just smugly applaud the Tidy Town efforts and continue unashamedly with Annual Budgets that are designed to fill their pockets. | Our country overall requires major attention to repairing and rebuilding our mismanaged forgotten about road works, and not just in areas where current ANC councillors live! Our road transport of goods is crucial to our economy and then we must also look at upgrading ournationwide train and bus sytems. | |
Jon | George | Yes I am | George Municipality is keeping our town running smoothly. Providing basic services & providing opportunities for job creation. It is planning towards future growth & providing for increased services | George is a friendly town where people live in harmony and can enjoy freedom to walk the streets & in the mountain without fear of attack ( although it does occasionally happen) SA is a wonderful country to live in & is able to support all its citizens if the BEE & labour laws were done away with thereby creating a place for new work opportunities & for foreign investment |
