Absolutely love you Mr Marais. You nailed it. Self governance for all Provinces. The journalist is trying hard to poke holes in your arguments. You won!!!!
Lol so there r no free clinics and hospitals in the western cape People in the western cape dont access all the grants offered by the government this man is ridiculous.
@sihlemkhize5857 No white people cannot be making claims on our land any longer. This subservient mentality has to stop, if we have to send the army so be it.
The funny thing about this comment section is all the black South Africans have so much to say about Cape Independence but the government they put in place is planning on putting laws in place that will make it hard if not impossible for me as a coloured man to work in other provinces. So if you guys are so happy with your Rainbow nation why are none of the black south Africans holding the ANC government accountable for doing that?
100%, additionally one should ask, why the provinces with distinct African Majority are not achieving socio economic excellence? As opposed to failure and sub standard outcomes. It’s the failure of SA that is encouraging independence. Had SA been achieving success, I doubt the calls for independence would exist
What a comparison: "We want to be the Hong Kong to South Africa!". That explains it beautifully. I love this guy, this firebrand! Go Cape Independence!
U can’t be the Hong Kong of SA! HK was colonized by the UK. Eventually one China policy stopped all the nonsense..let be known, Hong Kong was monololized by western companies for profits
They have absolutely hated us for century's but the minute we express to distance ourselves and address their hate, we get criticized. I've never ever met a more complex group of people.
@KhalangaDux and there we go. Some racist from the majority of non-contributors insults someone who us forced ro hire and support his unruly lot. Viva thickness viva. You weren't here and neither were your family but you're too thick to do math so you spew your hatred. Voersek, no skaam.
Well done Peter. It's time that they acknowledged, that there were other people in the Western Cape , hundreds of years before they moved down from the North. Keep up the good fight.
Every peace of land in South Africa belongs tov us indigenous South Africans, not you white people and not even your mixed race children who are 10% Africans. Tell yourself those lies, just the same way Black Americans believe that they are true Jewish people and I see that you believe your own European nonsense.
@@gedenironald8635 Genetic data proves that Zulu etc aren’t native to Southern Africa so you are an Alien to this part of Africa as much as a Nigerian drug dealer. What an L
The interviewer forgets one important point The ANC still has the Race classification act on the books.The ANC has now introduced race quotas in jobs and sport etc.Peter Marais you are making uncomfortable statements but true.The ANC can forget about ever winning the western cape.I might not be around but the Western Cape is going become independent.
Gayton McKenzie wants to liberate Coloureds who are slaves for whites in Western cape who own nothing. Now you whites are pushing this agenda cuz u wanna control them more nd more , this is not ok nd Gayton will win Western Cape nd liberate Coloreds
Africans(KhoiSan) and Asians(Malaysian Decendants) were classified as Coloureds yes not all coloureds are decendants of the KhoiSan but...majority of coloureds in this country are of KhoiSan decent especially in the Cape region(Western cape,Northern Cape and Eastern cape) so yes i agree with u on that
Dont worry guys i spoke to the lord and i ask him for independense and he said soon so please praise him if it comes cause he dont stand for wrongdiong
I think more governing power should be given to each province and federal power should be limited more. A more US apporach to governamnce where each province is given much greater self-determination I think would benefit all the provinces, not just Westwrn Cape.
Agree and put up a border patrol to check for illegal goods eg. Drugs; weapons; etc. Their municipal funds are also used for some municipalities in KZN.
Mr Marais is absolutely completely right. The truth is racism is a problem in this nation but not from the minority. The issue of racism is strong with the majority and going independent will ensure that the Western Cape doesn't let itself be dragged down with the rest of South Africa.
The South African government supports the independence of Western Sahara from the Kingdom of Morocco, and that is why we Moroccans are for the independence of the Western Cape and Orania.
Hate the part of relying on someone’s report just because they reported to the United Nations yet old archives tell us that when Vasco Da Gama first Portuguese white settler to the south found Khoi San and Xhosa people in the cape
Thank you! Historical distortions. Nguni people (Xhosa people) lived and coexisted with the Khoisan waaay before any European set foot on the African soil. I don’t know where he gets this notion that they moved from the north, after Europeans came. Which north is he talking about? Where exactly?
South Africa is not a monolith. Thus saying the Cape has a different outlook on life to the rest of South africa is very myopic. We're different. And we have a common history that brings us together despite this.

Eish conveniently you cut the interview short ? the conversation was just starting to get interesting !! Tell your director to allow truth to be spoken and well discussed Mr Marais.
Western Cape and Zululand " Kwa Zulu " Natal must get their independence !!! Western Cape for self determination!!!! Botswana and Namibia got their independence so do they call that racist aswell!!! Then South Africa need to take back Botswana and Namibia if the government does not want to give independence to the Western Cape!!!! Its stated in the constitution GIVE THE WESTERN CAPE THEIR INDEPENDENCE ASWELL AS KWA ZULU NATAL GIVE THEM INDEPENDENCE ASWELL!!!!!
Those who want to balkanize our country must start by asking questions about their ancestral origin. Finding it they just pack their bags and leave us in peace. The war against apartheid and colonial oppression was waged for one country not even for provinces. Maybe it is time to do away with provinces and remain with Municipalities.
But the country itself is a result of colonialism. Hence you have the issue with the Kingdom of Lesotho. The Kingdom of Eswatini could make the same claim, also Botswana. This guys in the western cape should just keep quiet.
I agree! Because they missing the point now, how do you build a country with people in the western cape who thinks they better or different then the rest! This is exactly what the ANC fought for, what does he mean SA has never been United. To be United we must all work for it, it’s not an overnight fight to win it takes years to build a nation. After we were so divided it will take a long time to come together.
Yes please! If we can get European citizenship back, I will give up all of my property for the passport. Anything to get away from the ANC criminal government...
Isnt it a scientific belief that homosapien originated here in SA? So actually, the whole earthe population should be shipped back here if going by your reasoning
This would be hilarious if it wasn't so toxic! As soon as he said, the first people here and counted a whole lot of Europeans before mentioning the descendants of the khoi "the xhosa" not khosa as he helplessly struggles to pronounce a khoi word but wants to blow the horn of Afrikaners... I suppose 😂 in his next interview, he would like to ask South Africa to take the BaTswana(San descendants) and Xhosa (Khoi descendants) out of the western Cape. So that he and the Afrikaners can enjoy "their" common culture... I have never thought that I would ever hear such self hatred except from Brother Black Pen. There is an African Proverb that says "when an old person dies, it's as if a library burns down" this peter Marais is a library filled with fiction literature in his old age, fits the proverb perfectly
Proverbs 17:19-20 He loveth transgression that loveth strife; and he that exalteth his gate seeketh destruction. He that hath a froward heart findeth no goid: and he that hath a perverse tongue falleth into mischief. A wicked man taketh a gift out of the bosom to pervert the ways of judgment. The heart of him that hath understanding seeketh knowledge: but the mouth of fools feedeth on foolishness. Prov.15:14
Really learn ur facts, the Xhosa descendants of koi San, oh really, the Koi where here in WC, EC, etc while Xhosa, descendants of Zulu, descendants of matabele etc original from Central Africa, each weaker tribe was pushed south, Xhosa only knew as far as Great fish river EC before meeting settlers. After frontier wars started filtering South there found places like Grahamstown, port Elizabeth, Cape town, well EC + WC existed then now suddenly they were original occupants of whole SA, never dream on, learn ur history. WC will tribe 100 fold of now with independence, as they already strongest economy of SA, sans ANC direct influence, what's holding them from growing is ANC racism laws being enforced. ANC racism worse than apartheid, so blatantly applied
@@alannesemannGenetics proves it. It is a fact. The Xhosa, Batswana and Basotho have Khoisan genetic ancestry. Do your research. Seek some peer reviewed scientific articles on genetic ancestry of southern African bantu and that of the "khoisan". Research on various tribes of "Khoisans" from Botswana to Namibia and South Africa. Research on the Hazhabe in Tanzania and the pygmis in Congo and their relation to the Khoisan. When you have done that. You will begin to appreciate how interconnected Africa is. Bantu and Khoisan have long lived amongst one anotherand genetically they have intermixed. The Khwe (most related to coloreds) themselves have bantu DNA. While Southern African Bantu (more so Batswana, Maxhosa, Basotho) have "khoisan" DNA in them.
@@alannesemann Sounds like NP pseudo history to me. Africans moved and migrated across the whole continent (including WC) long before Europeans settlers showed up.
Divide and Rule: In Azania Cape Province wants independence, in Nigeria Biafra wants independence, in DRC Congo external forces will like to curve out Eastern Congo, Cameroon will like to divide English speaking and French speaking. This is an issue that is unacceptable in Africa. African countries must remain intact and only Unite as a federation of Africa. Anyone trying to encourage the break away of any part of any African country should be considered an enemy of the African Future and should be charged for High Treason.
A "colored" man with an Afrikaans accent, as a front man for the return of white rule. "This has nothing to do with race..." What a clever idea, I would have never thought of that!

Sometimes the arrogance of western cape really shows how small minded rich people can be..... What you see in the western cape is from the wealth of this entire cou try and its policies..... You can't now take all that wealth and separate yourselves from the rest of this mess ....we are all in it.... ni yanya.
I am happy that he has listed all the visitors to the western Cape and forgotten that this is Africa and African blacks are the true indigenous people. We are Africans and proudly so. That Marais guy must be told to discover an island in the Indian ocean and settle there.
The KhoiSan were defeating the Portuguese while the Zulus were enslaved and brought down to work on the farms as slaves ooh boy theres a lot u dont know about the KhoiSan mense boi ons Baiza nie
@@sharonsyster2669 You my good sir are the most colonized of the southern African tribes. Telling us about Zulu slavery. We have maintained our ancestorial land, language and way of life in large parts of the KZN. Go learn your forefathers language and culture before you tell us about "Baiza nie"
The ANC made it free to go to any school, any restaurant, drink from any tap and go to any beach AMOUNG countless other positives, in the west province I experienced restricted beaches(u are made to feel very uncomfortable, amoung many other negatives)😅, ), how this man say no racism there, it's like social discrimination in hot spots😊
Peter Marais is proposing this claim on behalf of Khoisan. which he claims are original people of the Western Cape, yet himself is a product of coloured who seeks to preserve Afrikaans an Afrikaaaner language which has nothing to do with the culture and language of Khoisans preservation. One is not sure whether he is doing this out of ignorance or just to gain votes from Western voters. This same proposal of independent western cape was initially made by the racist DA now they are steering this puppet to run with this matter. Coloureds in the Western Cape need to understand that they are a product of Africans from the same Jan Van Riebeeck who settled and rape Africans in the Western Cape in 1652. Some Coloureds in the Western Cape have been grossly indocrinated to hate Africans by the very same Afrikaaaners who forced them to speak Afrikaans. They tried to do the same by forcing Africans to speak Afrikaans in 1976 but failed dismally. Today Coloureds woke up speaking Afrikaans and don't even realize the history behind that language. Peter Marais, Khoisans were Africans who resided in Africa (FYI) where the Western Cape is and always has been. This whole segment/interview with Mr Marais boils down to asking himself as a coloured man, what he would do if he did not acknowledge that he is an African. One can tell Mr Marais suffers from identity crisis. Well, there are a lot of your kind in America however this is Africa, Jan Van Riebeeck did not carry the whole city with him to the Western Cape,he brought a seed which he failed to nature. As an ignorant coloured man Mr Marais aught to take good historic lessons from Patricia Delille (ID political party).
A coloured person isn't just a product of African and European we also have Asian DNA. No one is forcing us to speak Afrikaans or taught it to us. It's part of our culture. If you look at the amount of Malay words that are in Afrikaans. Also I agree with Peter's history buy beside even that. The majority of black people vote for the ANC and the ANC doesn't wants us colours in the rest of the country due to their new race quotas. And if more the 40% of the vote goes to the ANC then they also don't want us in the rest of the country so why can't we have our own place?
Afrikaans were created by the Khoisan and Xhosa people mainly KhoiSan dont get that wrong the Boers stole our Land,Identities(Afrikaaners) and Language(Afrikaans) to justify their settlement on this land to make themselves natives to legally rob us of our land,identities and language...dont come with that ANC history that they taught u...explain the Bushmen paintings in KZN,Eastern Cape etc all over the country whice predates 100 000 years and the Bushmen were classified as coloureds but i bet u not ready for that neh
KhoiSan are Africans but not black dont Blackwash our history,the boers already tried to whitewash our history...Black people are not the only people to occupy this land us Brown people and lightskin brown people occupied this land before any of you and thats undisputed😅 thats facts you just gona utter a bunch of ANC 30% pass rate propaganda whice u call history hahaha your attemps to assimilate us Brown KhoiSan tribes under your Black tribes wont work here this is Afrika not America...The 1 drop in the bucket rule doesnt apply here it only applies in America 😂 you are not ready for the truth go search the 1950 Population Registration Act 30 before you want to comment about KhoiSan and Coloureds...Both Africans(KhoiSan) and Asians(Malaysian decendants) were classified as Coloureds so go check up on how ANC removed the k#ffer classification for Bantus but deliberately refused to remove the Coloured classificstion for the KhoiSan people who are Africans as you claim we are...go check up on that if you want to see why the ANC wont win the Western Cape...the ANC is a Nguni party not a KhoiSan party just like how DA is a European white party not a KhoiSan party you can no longer fool us buddy
Afrikaans is the result of Trade between the Dutch and the KhoiSan...whice the Dutch Boers later claimed as their own the same they did with our land and Identities...go learn proper history the Xhosas got their name from the San Bushmen meaning Angry Bushmen and Zulus got their names from the San Bushmen Ts'uru whice later became Zulu all these because these tribes came in contact with the Africans from the South,the Khwe and Sa'an Learn proper African history not that ANC nonsense
If you want Cape independence vote out the ruling party then if you can't vote them out Shut Up! According to World bank Cape Town is the most unequal city in the world so Peter is right they are different for being the most unjust society in the world
@@ProcaviaCapensis-ts8ub All of South Africa is ours belong to us Africans no settler will tell us where we must stay. The time will come where we will show you who South Africa belongs to, your fellow settlers in Zimbabwe were so arrogant like you saying they will fight but they were defeated even before the actual fighting and Mugabe took all the land.
My brother khoisan people are Africans,, all black people are Africans. There's no South Africa but Africa, it happened khoisan people are in the south of Africa.
So why can't the brothers and sisters from all of Africa come and live here in "the south of Africa" and move freely and get jobs and and do their thing without the "pass"port. It's their continent too, you are all Africans you all originated from the same place....
when they came to south africa, were they alone or were they with batswana? they moved from kalahari mafikeng taung n thier bothers n sisters r still with batswana since. if they claim 2 b the first to enter S.A. where was the entry point east mid or west?
