April 2006
20 million passengers pass through Johannesberg International Airport every year. But with issues such as 9/11 and hosting the 2010 football world cup, the airport that is 'plagued by organised crime' has to take security measures seriously.

The film provides an insight into the problems and difficulties of security undertaken by Airport Company South Africa (ASCA) who owns Johannesberg International Airport. The airport suffers from a great deal of corruption and after many criminal incidents and concerns of terrorists, Operation Octopus commenced in 2001 to tighten airport security. Security was seen to be 'abysmal' according to Paul O'Sullivan (Group Executive of Security) and many airport employees were arrested.

However, there are encouraging signs that ACSA are stepping up security especially in light of hosting the 2010 football world cup. New trainees have been employed and are to become 'part of the new solution [rather than] new additions to the old problem', employees are closely monitored and great efforts are being make to maintain a "security culture".

  • Terrorists are cowards and they speak the langauge of violence.

  • Nothing to do with insecurity. We try/tried to avoid problems rather than mop up afterwards. By the way, I am not at all insecure.

  • @emperor536 Somehow we teleported from airport management to trans-national terrorism. But I think this is enough.

  • @762full Stupid? LMAO, I only deleted my comment because i didn't want to add it to my favorites, which i usually do so i can easily revisit some important conversations that i have, but i never meant to retract my comment in any form.

    Oh and yes 20 years ago the terrorists in South Africa where the whites (if you want me to be more precise)

  • @emperor536 "@762full Yes it did, it's just that the present perpetraters are of a different ethnicity."

    I just thought I'd post your deleted comment so everyone can see how stupid you are.

  • These problems didn't exist in South Africa 20 years ago, that's for damn sure.
