CONVERSION OF AUSTRALIAN LICENSE TO SOUTH AFRICAN LICENSE
Could someone at your embassy tell me that I have to have a letter from the embassy to prove that my drivers license is valid. I do have a letter from the NSW Maritime with the history of my driving record which was endorsed by the RTA in Australia NSW

Good afternoon



In reply to your email below, I want to point out why I am concerned about my application I sent to your agency:



1.There are not reference numbers on any of your correspondence.
2.We have on 2 occasions requested you to acknowledge or confirm the payment made to you - no acknowledgement.
3.In your email highlighted in red hereunder, you request we confirm that we are South Africans. A fact clearly stated in the application form. Furthermore, you refer to GAMBIA which does not feature on our application.
4.You email now states that we cannot apply on line. What has happened to our payment?
5.Your correspondence is not very professional.

From the above you will understand why I am concerned and would appreciate a proper and clear reply from your agency.


Regards

Mattheus Zaaiman

Hello,

We sent you an email with the answer. You don't have to be suspicious.
For the South Africa nationality you need to check with your ambassy as there is no Online VISA for your nationality.

Regards.

Sir



We received a link from our travel agent to apply for an Australian visa on line. We submitted the required application and payment. From hereunder you will note that we received an email which refers to our application but no reference number is given nor is there an acknowledgement of our payment. We are concerned and suspicious as the email address is different from the one above.



Could you please advise whether you received our application and that everything is in order.


Regards

Mattheus Zaaiman

Hello,

About your visa application, you submit with South Africa Nationality. Please confirm us ?

If it is GAMBIA, you must check first with the Australian Embassy and let us know.

Shocked and disgusted by TV insert about Autralian Slaughterhouses
I was very upset,shocked and disgusted by the pictures on TV on how animals are treated in Australian slaughterhouses.

To take a knife and stick it into the eye of a living animal is beyond my comprehension..and then taking pictures of it too !! I do hope the ban on importing meat from Australia will last so long that all farmers will go bankrupt.Looks like Australians are more barbaric than people in my country, and that says a lot !

Reply to Kim Beaucamp
As a South African i wholeheartedly agree with you.People in my country have no respect for the law whatsoever, but the people you should fear the most here, is the Police Force !! 99,9% of them are criminals in uniform. The justice system, as all other government agencies are in shambles since 1994 when the president (F.W.de Klerk) gave our country away to a terrorist organization. Since then NOBODY, but especially white people are NOT safe in South Africa.
