<3 SA

[ElvisetteJackson]

South Africa is a beautiful country and football is a beautiful game so let us all come together, overcome our difficulties and differences and simply enjoy this amazing event!

[swallowpin]

[falis1000]

@swallowpin

[DaSlug32]

Put on your smiling faces and hide the mess, we have visitors.

[zimbos88]

the west needs to stop patronising africa. its a continent with soo much to offer and very nice people. im from zimbabwe, and i know that 2010 will be a great world cup. yes there is a crime issue, but if their is no support, then nothing will get sorted out. i may live in australia, but always an african at heart. stop patronising and start supporting and taking to action to stop the problems you say are there.

[Garethm87]

Any South African knows we have a crime problem. If you deny that fact either you aren't South African or you're just plain ignorant. But it's still a beautiful country, with amazing things to see and amazing people. I'm in Europe now, but always a Durbanite at heart. Every place will have it's problems, it just depends what's more important to you.

[DaSlug32]

The youth wing of the South African government is inciting its supporters to kill whites. If you intend traveling to SA for the cup, leave your families at home.

[KpmorGandASM]

hey stop talking out your ass South Africa hosted plenty world tournaments so stop it 2010 south africa is going to be good for the country

[FoSho091]

stop saying stuff that are not even true.

[rooidiertjie]

Take good advice from a South African. If

you love your life, belongings & health, stay away during FIFA 2010. This

country is run by criminals and an equally

criminal police force. Crime is out of hand

and rampant. The chief of police is himself a known criminal. Be wise and

stay at home. Watch on TV this time round. Do not say that you have not been

warned. What you like most - rape, assault, hi jacking, theft, murder? make a pick - by an ordinary criminal or by a

criminal in uniform?

[ROFLFTW88]

Stop this nonsense of yours, if its as bad as you keep saying it is, my family and many people I know would of packed their bags and left by now. But we choose to keep on living here because life is good here. Where do you live ? In Mamelody or something ? Because I can understand there is some serious issues about crime in some parts of S.A but many places, like Cape Town, is still safe.

[AstiFBI]

Thank you!!! some1 thinking for once. I'm from cape town and it rockz. I go out late at night party walk around whatever and nothing has happened 2 me!

[DaSlug32]

@ROFLFTW88 You right much safer, only 2346 murders in the Western cape last year. Love the view.

[we5026]

@rooidiertjie "Take good advice from a South African" - Fuck off you are not south african! South Africans are for south africa, and 2010 is gonna be great! if things were as bad as what you are saying fifa wouldnt have hosted in SA!! the very hosting contradicts your pessimism, so dont come this this shit of yours, and even have the audacity to call yourself south african, you are not one of my fellow countrymen... disgrace! Ons vir jou suid-afrika eendracht maakt macht

[anneliesie]

WOW I got goosebumps. How I miss SA!

[ceejay8888]

I love it....love it....I miss home....from another african heart.....always africa in my heart.....greetings from San Diego.....I will see you all there...love my people!!! very beautifull strong commercial...good goin

[michacha2]

Good job and well said juanji15

[bongiwe]

LOVE IT. am proudly south african 4eva. ppl who focus only on the crime are losing the point. here in Chicago, USA they are contenders for olympics 2016 but there are still gang shootings everyday. that doesn't stop our crooked mayor from promoting Chicago, lol. VIVA AFRIKA VIVA!

[Kentarobravo]

SA was the best spot in africa to hold the world cup.

[DaSlug32]

Forget the crime. The media will cover up the deaths, and focus on the World Cup. Nobody will know, and the money generated will do SA some good.

[juanji15]

lol mate Africa is gonna host a great and incredible event that the whole world will watch, yeah they got crime, and i come from a really crime infested country, Mexico, i know what im talking about, theres crime everywhere, theres people killed, rape, burn, hanged everyone, even in the US, but that doesnt mean that the country can show the world why it was chosen in the first place to host the event, Arriba SOUTH AFRICA, MEXICO IS WITH YOU

[blackknight509]

@juanji15

[Rabiddingo66]

shitload of crimes in Los Angeles, Oakland, Chicago, and NewYork in the USA. Shitload of crimes in Russia, Shitload of crimes in London, and Paris, and Rome, and Istanbul... Shitload of crimes in Brazil too... but you're going to give africa shit because of their crime rate? SHUT THE HELL UP MAN... Give them a break... They will put on a great show, and security will come through... Just like Russia and Brazil will do in 2014, and Turkey's done with their Uefa finals..

[robertj95]

[Stadsjapie777]

Haai suga, I come from South Africa, so lets be honest "we have crime problem people!" You can't fix things that you deny exist...lets admit it and deal with- South African CAN be safer than what it is now. I say that with a heart full of love for my country. This advert is a plea for people to not go crazy robbing people.

[rekerelover]

I can't believe im gonna miss this.....it just makes me wanna cry, i really miss home!!! I believe my country is ready for 2010....its gonna be a success. We worked too hard for this....come 2010

[marvinthemuppet]

Hope the world cup fucks up and the rest of the world put s you back into isolation for being a fucking bunch of black retards!!!!!!!!!

[remmogo]

[Ezkeel]

This guy sounds like a sore loser and a hater.

I think greggybread would say wanker but I just call it pathetic

[arpu2007]

whos setting standards for the world cup we dont have to prove anything but be ourself.

[wiledog]

this ad is so idealistic, it irritates me.... sadly Africa & South Africa's moment will come, but nothing will change... i challenge African leaders to sort Mugabe & other tyrants out & show the world that Africa CAN govern itself! make this ad real & get some pride....

[CH127]

WHAT ABOUT THE CRIME Mmm????

[Rabiddingo66]

STOP TALKING ABOUT THE CRIME, THERE IS CRIME EVERYWHERE... my god you pessimistic idiots...

Mexico has hosted the Olympics and 2 world cups... and look at THEIR CRIME RATE.. they have put on awesome showings at every event they've done.. get used to africa being proud man..

[jeandrel]

Beautiful. I am positive that it will be a success. We need to believe in our country again. If only everybody felt like that...

[eisenkreuzmusik]

We look forward to your hospitality and natural beauty!

Best luck wishes for successful hosting from the USA!
