The death toll in the George building collapse now stands at 32, with 20 people still unaccounted for. The Deputy Minister of International Relations, Alvin Botes, has appealed for financial assistance from the public to help repatriate the bodies of foreign nationals killed in the George building collapse.
Representatives from the High Commissions of Zimbabwe and Malawi are also in George to meet with family members of the victims and oversee the repatriation process. According to Botes, repatriation is not covered by consular support services covered by DIRCO. Eighty-one people were on site when the building collapsed last Monday.

Well isn't that just appalling? I hope they get sued for this tragedy. No sympathy for so many people just working hard and doing their jobs. No acknowledgement from the Developers? Shame on you.

My point is this. Government of Zimbabwe must come in assist their nationals. When Zambians perished in a bus accident, the Zambian Government dispached an air force plane to collect the departed ones. The same as the recent bus accident from Botswana, the Botswana government dispached their air force plane to collect. South African government can only do that much.
