the leftovers of south africa's most profitable industries. and within the life some disturbing secrets. now it seems that heart wrenching journalists must time to do has uncovered the shocking truth of exactly what's in these mind tapes and just how deadly they may be. sunrise america river basin. one of south africa's largest freshwater reserves. bridget corrigan is a botanist. and a specialist in the region's biodiversity. this is a very special catchment for a lot of reasons if it's not a unique but a very city from not just the terrestrial but also the 1st one of our diversity is very special it's got about 14 species of fish and a lot of really endemic species of invertebrates and quite insects that contribute to the health of the sort of this river system. there about 200 trees species in america. that's 17 of them. and about $400.00 in a bird species. it is a national treasure and the north west doesn't have a lot of these river systems a lot of the systems in this province are heavily degraded. the crown jewel of this is not true trea

party and apartheid a new era began in south africa with a new constitution that guarantees citizens the right to sufficient water and places the responsibility for realizing that right in the hands of the state. some people believe that has contributed to cape town's water crisis. politics may have played a role but i think the real problem was that national treasury said to the department of water thing is you're not getting any more money. and they didn't have the money because there's a whole lot of us have been squandered. the entire world has supported black economic empowerment in south africa and yes it is necessary to find a rich to chew shouldn't for the sins of the past but what people also have to recognize is that like a demonic empowerment has just become a fig leaf to cover corruption it sounds moral it sounds good people don't want to be against it but it really is just a number 11 hind which a lot of corruption is he really cape town and the western cape province are controlled by the democratic alliance or da party while the national government is in the hands of th
