		South Africans have also created many ties with the city of Chicago in the interests of furthering business, educational, and cultural exchange between South Africa and the Midwest.

		South Africa's official broadcaster was forced to scrap its Great South Africans series yesterday after viewers chose white supremacists, convicted fraudsters and cheating sportsmen for the top 100 places.
		Painful memories of South African history ensure that, 10 years after the end of apartheid, figures from the past remain as intensely controversial as ever.
		The choice of heroes among South Africans divides largely according to race, and one man's pantheon of glory is a rogues' gallery for another.

	washingtonpost.com: Despite Deep Woes, Democracy Instills Hope
		Despite the problems, healthy majorities of South Africans look back with pride on a decade of historic change and are broadly optimistic about the future of their country and democratic rule, according to a national survey by The Washington Post, the Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation and Harvard University.
		South Africans acknowledge that the first decade of democracy has failed to deliver all the benefits they expected, creating conflicting views of the road ahead.
		The African National Congress (ANC), the party of Mandela and the current president, Thabo Mbeki, is now seen by South Africans as a threat to democratic principles as its leaders erase the boundaries between party and state, according to this and other surveys.

	South African Elections Show the Way Toward Racial Fairness
		The miraculous triumph of democracy in South Africa is the culmination of a remarkable year for proportional representation (PR), that "other" voting system used by most of the democratic world.
		The South Africans never even seriously considered the winner-take-all system, because it was universally recognized that the success of their new democracy depended on t he degree to which their government reflected the racial and political diversity of their society -- never a strong point of winner-take-all systems.
		The German system's combination of U.S.-style geographic districts with a party list PR system that elects political parties in prop ortion to their share of the popular vote would be very familiar to U.S. voters.

		Some were listed for having convictions against them for terrorism, sabotage, treason or related offences against the apartheid state.
		Virginia Farris, the public affairs spokesperson for the US embassy in Pretoria, said people were not "delisted as such, they receive 10-year waivers from the department of immigration and nationalisation and the department of homeland security".
		The removal of the three ANC stalwarts from the list appears to have been a pre-emptive move to avert a potentially damaging court case threatened by Sexwale, a Johannesburg businessman and former Umkhonto we Sizwe commander.
