This is an awsome thread, I think everybody should read it

Immigration is definately not for cowards. It can be extremely difficult at times, but you have to look at the bigger picture. Why did you even consider leaving SA, it must have been something that sparked of the thought to uproot your whole life? It's really not worth giving up, only to go back to crime and fear?

I've noticed how SAn's nit-pick NZ when they get here? The kiwi's are like this...they do things like that.......they don't seem to understand the importance?

.....And so it goes on?
It's ok to point out differences, but when you get angry about those things, then, that is anger what will make your new start, not so lekker.
Of course they are different to us. Thier culture and lifestyle has made them what they are. They haven't been through what us as SAn's have, you should be jealous not angry.
You have to find ways to adjust and fit in. You will never totally understand them, but at least try.........after all, it's thier country that you chose to live in

Well, that's my 2 cents worth
