#2 South Africa could learn about speedy land reform from its neighbour Zimbabwe, Deputy President Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka said on Wednesday.

Yeah, but not in the way any rational person would think.

"We've got lessons to learn from Zimbabwe -- how to do it fast," she told an African distance-education conference in Pretoria.

...and really screw things up.

But go ahead, if you want to emulate failure, that's entirely up to you.

#3 Some of the best people I've ever had the pleasure of knowing are from SA. Such a shame, but not much of a suprise.

#6 "Surely Deputy President Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka is joking," it said in a statement.

Surely.

#7 I completely agree that "We've got lessons to learn from Zimbabwe," although I suspect that the lessons I've learned are appreciably different than the ones Miss Mlambo-Ngucka has taken away.
