Foreign nationals gathered at the Marabastad Home Affairs office in Pretoria say they are disappointed by the withdrawal of a Home Affairs directive issued on the 28th of September.
It expanded the intake of asylum seeker applications following a Constitutional Court ruling.
They say the directive had given them hope of obtaining legal documentation and regularising their stay in South Africa.

Nothing to add to South Africa but begging for a handout. Socialism/ communism will be the death of us

If they don't feel safe in south Africa then surely they should go to another country where they feel safe. Yoh 10 years illegal in South Africa, our government isn't serious.
@@ongezwa_siyamthandaImported3wk ago
And the journalists are clearly following some kind of agenda, there are barely any women and children in that queue and of course when reporting the foreigner's perspective it must appeal to people's emotions and display them as non problematic using phrases like "the atmosphere is calm". We are on to you!!!

@@n..p_vbez211Imported3wk ago
Hi, I think your interpretation and analogies are somewhat flawed because they fail to account for several important considerations.<br><br>Firstly, if someone genuinely needs asylum, one would generally expect them to seek protection in the nearest safe country rather than cross multiple borders to reach a particular destination. While there may be legitimate reasons for doing so, crossing multiple countries can raise questions about whether the asylum system is being used as a means of economic migration rather than solely for protection.<br><br>Secondly, a government's primary responsibility is to safeguard the interests and security of its own citizens, while still fulfilling its international obligations. If someone fabricates a story to support an asylum claim, that claim must be investigated to establish its authenticity. Until that process is complete, there is a possibility that individuals who pose a security threat, including potential terrorists, could be granted temporary permission to remain in the country. Given the severe backlogs in asylum processing, such individuals could potentially remain in the country for years before their claims are resolved, creating possible national security risks.<br><br>My concern is that these risks and competing obligations should have been thoroughly considered before a ruling was made. The right to seek asylum is important, but so too are the integrity of the asylum system, the effective verification of claims, and the protection of national security. A balanced approach should take all these factors into account rather than treating the issue as though there are no significant risks or trade-offs.

I don't think the SABC reads peoples comments, they keep disappointing their South African viewers. Maybe our Tax should stop paying their salaries.😂😅 Seriously, that was a waste of airtime and other resources.

he's been here for 10 years and still cannot speak English, 100% sure he speaks no other SA language and yet wants to have legal residency here. if this is not a take over of our land nothing is.

Journalists are interviewing undocumented individuals without reporting them to the authorities. Does that not constitute aiding and abetting? This illegal migrant has been in South Africa for 10 years without legal documentation.
