Name changes in general
South Africa definitely have much larger issues to sort out than unnecessary name changes.
Apart from the huge cost, it creates confusion. Money can go to many more worthwhile causes.

Changing names of streets etc is a GIANT wasteful expenditure. What is the purpose and the benefit to the citizen? Rather repurpose the funds to alleviate the plight of the poor, improve infrastructure, rural school conditions, essential medical services, improve water management etc. Or just fill the damned potholes.! WHAT HAPPENED TO COMMON SENSE? Does the Government think the SASSA and other social grant pensioners care a hoot about the names of the airports or street names? They would prefer an increase in grant moneys. Is the Government not here to serve the people’s needs? How many Grant recipients have petitioned for street name changes?

Elections revealed that SA citizens are tired of these money wasting ideological events costing millions of rands for nothing more than feeding money hungry useless committee people who add no value to the economy or South Africa. Just keeping on with expanding the public service that serves only to pay unemployable people with no meaningful outputs.

COST
Until such time as SA has the luxury of engaging with new nice to have items such as this, there must be a moratorium on new name changes.
