  • CORRUPTION the MEDIA SACOS Operates in Such a Climate in South
    Ramsamy had, however, delivered the goods and had assured his position as Chairman of NOCSA until the next Olympic Games and perhaps until 2004, should South Africa be granted the Games for that year. He had also duly rewarded some of those who like him had betrayed the non-racial cause. One wonders if he did not at times have nightmares or was not haunted by what he wrote in “Apartheid - The Real Hurdle” “Black school children - the raw material from which future black sportsmen and women are made - are forced to accept inferior and unequal facilities. It is in reality impossible to conceive o f a completely non-racial sports system in a country which in these much more fundamental respects treats more than 80 percent of the population differently on the grounds o f race and colour. Merit selection emanating out o f such a system has little or no meaning as it will tend to prove how mediocre the performance o f black sportspeople are - the very theory that the white racist regime is propagating internationally. ” The final communique issued by the ANOCA Conference in Harare on 3/4 November 1990 stipulated that “once apartheid has been totally abolished” unity should be formed by the organisations controlling sport and the readmission of South Africa to membership of international sports organisations may be considered.
