Immature & Dangerous Jibes

26 March 2017 By Port Elizabethan

Helen Zille Resigns

Dear MyPE As much as colonialism was mostly about the subjugation and stealing from the hosts of respective regions, it shouldn't be used to vilify later generations who were not participants in its evil side. Just like sidelining White people nowadays from jobs who were either apolitical, unaware or indifferent to the brutality of Apartheid. Helen Zille's condescending Tweet was bordering on racism, but it was really the celebration of perceived white supremacy over some Black smart alecs … [Read more...] about Immature & Dangerous Jibes

Congratulations GMSA

20 March 2017 By Port Elizabethan

Letters to the Editor

Dear MyPE Congratulations to the OPEL Astra and General Motors as a whole for scooping the 2017 WesBank Car-Of-The-Year title (See: Thirteenth National Car of the Year Award for Opel Astra), although I was bitterly disappointed that my beloved rear-wheel driven BMW M2 was eliminated in the early stages of the contest. My next favourites were the Jaguar F-Pace, Toyota Fortuner or the Volkswagen Tiguan despite SUV's being known as vehicles of disrespectful and bumptious intruders. Two thumbs up … [Read more...] about Congratulations GMSA

ANC Freemasonry = Afrikaner Broederbond

17 February 2017 By Port Elizabethan

Letters to the Editor

Dear MyPE Regarding the 11th February 2017 Weekend Post headline about Big Spender's Record Spree, yours truly is going to sound like a stuck Vinyl Record Player, but has to nevertheless repeat that if You are not Anointed by the ANC and/or not Approved by South African White Capital (seemingly the Guptas nowadays), then you are not going anywhere fast in South Africa. I know from 18 Years of personal experience and observation of having expansionary ideas being initially disregarded … [Read more...] about ANC Freemasonry = Afrikaner Broederbond

Let’s Crowd-Fund the Rehabilitation of New Brighton Pier

4 January 2017 By Alan Straton

New Brighton Beach

Dear MyPE As much as the Nelson Mandela Bay Municipality's Recreational BUDGET is limited, it would however be awesome if the Council could urge the citizens of this Metro and beyond to Crowd-Fund the overhaul of the Brighton Beach Pier. With reference to reports of the bingeing lifeguards, one must remember that they know too well that the Brighton Beach is the Cinderella of Algoa Bay's beaches, hence going rogue with their and other people's lives. The current eyesore Brighton Beach … [Read more...] about Let’s Crowd-Fund the Rehabilitation of New Brighton Pier

About Those Nonsensical Matric Results

21 December 2016 By Port Elizabethan

Letters to the Editor

Dear MyPE Hopefully, the Department of Education will be publishing the Names of Matriculants who have made it from this year onwards. Otherwise, it might as well stop wasting Taxpayers' money through buying publishing space from media houses and showing meaningless numbers to the general public. What is the whole point in the long run anyway as the matriculant knows his/her number, which is meaningless to the public and is repeated on their matric certificates anyway? The apprehensive … [Read more...] about About Those Nonsensical Matric Results

About the Revamped Swartkops Bridge

13 December 2016 By Port Elizabethan

Swartkops Bridge

Dear MyPE Regarding the revamped Swartkops Bridge yours truly thinks it will still need to be complemented by the Bluewater Bay bridge and the yet-to-be authorised Woolhope Memorial Bridge to prepare for our apparent Economic Expansion and thereby an increase in Traffic Volume. In a nutshell, the eponymous Woolhope Memorial Bridge is a homage to the mostly Woolhope Secondary School pupils from Motherwell township, who passed away in a school transport accident on their way to Malabar in … [Read more...] about About the Revamped Swartkops Bridge

Send them packing to Gauteng

14 November 2016 By Port Elizabethan

Letters to the Editor

Dear MyPE Yours truly must admit that he used to be bitterly against the Laager Mentality of Gautengers, who believe that Africa revolves around their "Money Capital of Africa" Hub, hence there demanding that the South African National Parliament must relocate from Cape Town to their Cash, Status & Crass Materialism Province viz. Gauteng. However, I have seen the light as it is going to be cost-effective in the long run for taxpayers when Travelling Costs, Accommodation, Psychological … [Read more...] about Send them packing to Gauteng

2nd Ferrari World Theme Park for PE?

10 October 2016 By Port Elizabethan

Dear MyPE Nicknames can predict your future aside referring to your past. My birth nickname is Niki Lauda (pronounced Low-daa by people from New Brighton & Zwide townships), named after Andreas Nikolaus "Niki" Lauda after he dominated & won the 1977 Formula 1 Championship in a Ferrari because I was very pale with dark, bushy hair at birth. My nickname then became Honda after Niki Lauda WON the 1984 F1 Championship in a McLaren Honda and I sound vain when I insist that Formula 1 … [Read more...] about 2nd Ferrari World Theme Park for PE?

Sipho Pityana and the N word

7 October 2016 By Port Elizabethan

Letters to the Editor

Dear MyPE As much as much as President Zuma and ilk see South Africa as their personal HAREM, the public utterances of Sipho Pityana (Anglo Ashanti chairman) seem to be more about ingratiating himself to White Capital than genuine concern about our Kleptocracy. Just like Cyril Ramaphosa of LONMIN, who polished the marbles of the predominantly White mining industry by giving the Trigger-happy POLICE carte blanche to let loose with gunfire on the predominantly BLACK Marikana striking … [Read more...] about Sipho Pityana and the N word

Sdudla Noma1000 – Disrespect Inc.

3 October 2016 By Port Elizabethan

Letters to the Editor

Dear MyPE Thanx-A-Trillion to the Promoters / Organisers / Sdudla & Noma1000 for the utter disrespect they showed to the Eastern Cape supporters for lying about their Artist Line-up & MC's at Motherwell Peace Park on October 1st 2016. Those guys, if really guilty, have just committed Career Suicide as far as this Province is concerned. Gauteng / Kwa-Zulu Natal / Western Cape people are already contemptious of the Eastern Cape and you have joined the Disdain Brigade. Two Thumbs Up to … [Read more...] about Sdudla Noma1000 – Disrespect Inc.

The origin of the term ‘Proudly South African’

12 April 2016 By Port Elizabethan

Luyanda Marlon Kama

Dear MyPE Yours truly remembers vividly being told 20 years ago - on an early morning in the bus on our way to school - by my excited and proud schoolmates at Woolhope Secondary School that they had seen my article in True Love magazine. More pupils told their "very serious" Deputy Head Boy about that Inspirational Letter he wrote at school afterwards. In a nutshell, the Proudly South African term was INSPIRED by my APRIL 1996 True Love magazine's (with Melanie Son-Bala on the front … [Read more...] about The origin of the term ‘Proudly South African’
