Hi 

Not too sure what is meant by what is happening in SA. There are no xenophobic attacks in South Africa. What is being marched against is what is happening globally where there is a migration issue. The protesting SA citizens are concerned about people that do not have the correct documentation to be in SA. This is a matter of legality and not xenophobic.

Hi LP, 

Many thanks for your response. However we have seen very recent video evidence where other African decsents  have been given 30th June to vacate their homes and return back to their home countries regardless whether they are documented or not. This is what we are worried about where even legally documented other African descent's have been given ultimatum to move from SA. I am particularly worried that people may be targeted at airports on arrival and so CIMA can always move the venue to another country and possibly host in 2027 when the situation might have normalize. 
my Thoughts.

We should always look at what is portrayed in the media with a pinch of salt, we have also seen footage of people who have come into SA with visiting VISAs but have stayed for years post expiry and opened businesses without the proper legal papers, impacting economically to the country. There are always two viewpoints to every argument. Although I cannot say whether people would be targeted at airports or not, if people feel uncomfortable then that should be taken into consideration regarding CIMA hosting.

Hi LPM,

Perfectly agreed. Wrong anywhere is wrong everywhere. However you will also agree with me that some of the indigens have taken advantage to loot and kick out other well meaning Africans with proper documentations and permits. My position is simple, the safety and security of CIMA professionals are very important. CIMA must therefore consider the safety of their members first before anything else. I therefore move a motion for the venue to be changed to a more safer country where professional Accountants will be welcomed without being chased away like animals in their own continent. I so move. And my fellow comrades should respond yeeeeeye🥰
