  • Melissa Nayimuli – Butterworth, Eastern Cape
    Melissa Nayimuli – Butterworth, Eastern Cape Name: Melissa Nayimuli Region: I was born in Butterworth in the Eastern Cape but I currently live in Sunninghill. Age: 24 (Born January 2, 1996) Occupation: I have a BA in Motion Picture Medium from AFDA Johannesburg, and I majored in television writing. I currently work as an account manager for a marketing agency. Why do you want to be Miss South Africa and what do you think you will be able to bring to the role? I was born into a multicultural home with a Xhosa mother and a Ugandan father. As exciting as this was, on one hand, I got to experience the full acceptance and love from being treated like a South African, and on occasion, with just the mere mention of my surname, I felt what it was like to be treated like a foreigner. I am entering Miss South Africa with the hopes of bringing unity within the African continent. I would like to start conversations that are aimed at repairing the damage caused by xenophobia, not only in South Africa but all over the African continent. This is not only a South Africa problem, it is not only an Africa problem, it is a global issue. We need to be kinder, more accepting and more respectful of each other’s differences. South African women are proving on a daily basis that they are not only powerful leaders who can effect change, but they can do that with grace, compassion, and humility, which I believe are imperative attributes for such a sensitive topic.

  • The Scope of South Africa's Exodus
    The scope of south Africa’s exodus Thousands of predominantly white, young, skilled South Africans of all persuasions, regions and professions are leaving the country each year to settle mainly in Australia, New Zealand, Britain, the USA and Canada. Official statistics suggest that just over 8 200 people had emigrated from South Africa in 1998 and about 9 000 in 1999, but because of an under-reporting of between one half and two thirds the unofficial total would have been between 16 000 and 25 000. These latest emigrants joined the 550 000 emigrants who have left officially since 1945, in addition to the 500 000 to one million emigrants who may have left the country unofficially during this period. The real significance of this exodus can be found not so much in the sheer size of the exodus - even though it is large by any standard - but in the fact that these emigrants represent a huge loss of human capital: they are mostly professionals and their skills and ability to create wealth and jobs cannot be replaced overnight, if at all. In addition, emigration on this scale raises the questions of how many more people may join this new Trek, and whether this emigration will continue at current levels or whether a sudden mass exodus might become a possibility. 2.1 O f f ic ia l s t a t is t ic s vs the a c t u a l n u m b e r s : THE 2:1 AND 3:1 RATIOS As mentioned earlier, the number of people leaving South Africa each year is at least double and could be triple the official numbers provided by Statistics South Africa.

All proceeds from the Miss SA Legacy Initiative Gala Dinner – held at Sun City on Friday and attended by a host of former Miss South Africa title holders, including former Miss Worlds Penny Rey Coelen and Rolene Strauss – went to The Tomorrow Trust and The Nelson Mandela Children’s Hospital. Others who attended included Joan Ramagosi-Madibeng, Sandra de Meyer-Evans, Tansey Coetzee Sodeinde, Amy Kleinhans Curd, Odette Scrooby-Joubert, Sonia Raciti-Oshry, Lorna Potgieter, Yolanda Kloppers, Tatum Keshwar, Kerishnie Naiker, Andrea Stelzer, Vera Johns Sutherland, Suzette van der Merwe, Claudia Henkel and Liesl Laurie.

However, the Legacy Initiative will provide an additional platform for all former Miss South Africa winners to work together as a meaningful force for good. “As passionate South Africans, we believe the future is tied to our young people and, in particular, their education and health. We have adopted two NPOs for a long-term period with the aim of raising R400 000 per annum for each NPO. Funds raised for The Tomorrow Trust will be used towards their school holiday programme, providing skills training and recourses for qualifying schoolgoing South Africans.
