Seems like there is a difference of opinion about what to name some of the streets in town. Many street signs in the white part of town, recently changed from the original Afrikaans name to decidedly more African designations by the elected, black city government, have been erased with a few swipes of a spray paint can.
Good to see that the city planners – and some of the residents are directing their time and money on the really big issues in Bethal instead of the deteriorating roads and public buildings, not to mention the massive number of poor, hungry and sick living in the neighboring black slums. This is strange… like a weird passive-agressive cultural chest-thumping match.
