Lazola, wake up and smell the dust settling right in front of your face! what is being upped is the capacity to unravel the very intense and hideous abilities and strengths of learning! what do you make of the university entrants that cannot comprehend the luxities of reading and writing? what do you make of the Misfiring of debate apex and shooting your mouth foul each time some discussion takes place? what is the SASCO's take on the quality and subsequent quantity of matric passes we have in this country? when and how do you suggest we improve the philanthropic genesis of digesting the need for skills while we have the lack of hunger to achieve better- why argue for lower entry standards when you have the power of each one teach one to advance the knowledge base of the very classes you want into universities? This is still quality sifting we are talking about; when they raise the fees what will be your argument then, because that then limits who has access to the same facilities? should you not be concentrating your current efforts on the times spent in class learning and teaching? should you not be focusing intensely on the beyond classroom times learning that pupils and scholars put to the betterment of their selves? cummon south africa, fight for the improvement and raising the bar rather than political point scoring of who is the loudest in (reckless) defiance!!! Come up with programs and campaigns that will entrench the culture of reading and research from among our own!
