Like i stated earlier, the article should be thrown into the garbage section, since neither you nor the article it'self can substantiate the contents in the report.

A delusional report to self-aggrandisement with no substance.

"Its wrong because I say so"

What evidence do you have to substantiate your claims? None? Ok, shut the fvck up then

The African invented the laser but yet the boer monkeys are trying to take credit for the black mans creation in the usual white way, I commend that African for his creation and I condemn that African for allowing those dirty Europeans to speak on camera as though it was their creation. Typical southie slave mentality. Zulus of 400 years ago may have been big and bad but the Zulus of 2015 are slaves and cowards.

You are sub-human

NO! This map shows northerners are uneducated ...yet Naijas GDP has far surpassed Zululands' GDP, so who is the real slave? If you Zulu kaffirs weren't so uneducated your GDP would have probably be the same as ours or even more because of the infrastructure built by the pink people but sadly for you, Zulus are the worlds dumbest humans, SA will never catch Naija again. If we had stable electricity we would already be a 1trillion dollar economy.

Thank you for your concern. grin They will first be degraded of their fighting ability and not be able to establish any coherent strategy and with improved Intel get their kingpins.

You may not know this, but they are a cross border organisation, but willnot now be able to do this. The ideology will die way over time like the previous ones.

SA ARMS EXPORTS CLOSE TO R3BILLION


South Africa's arms exports remained stagnant with R2.98 billion in exports authorised in 2014 compared to R3.2 billion the year before and R10.6 billion in 2012, according to the latest National Conventional Arms Control Committee (NCACC) report.Although the report lists the grand total of exports as R880 million, when the individual exports are added up they reach R2.9 billion. However, the grand total for imports is listed as R200 million and when the individual items are added up they also equal R200 million.

[b]NCACC chair Jeff Radebe delivered the 2014 report to Parliament this week, which covers arms exports and imports from January to December. It revealed that South Africa's defence industry exported 326 armoured vehicles (mainly armoured personnel carriers) to nearly two dozen countries last year, as well as four mine detection vehicles to Iraq. The biggest buyers were Burkina Faso (31 vehicles), Guinea (32 vehicles), Niger (21 vehicles), Saudi Arabia (100 vehicles), Senegal (39 vehicles) and the United Arab Emirates (26). These vehicles sales amounted to more than R810 million.Other weapons exports included seven cannons to Indonesia (R7.5 million); 11 turrets to Malaysia (R235 million); four artillery systems to Saudi Arabia (R30 million), six gun/howitzers to the United Arab Emirates (R229 million); four missiles to Germany (R12 million) and five anti-material rifles to Azerbaijan (R2.2 million). The turrets are being supplied to Malaysia by Denel Land Systems for their new infantry combat vehicles. It is most likely that the Middle Eastern artillery orders involve G5/G6 artillery, also from Denel.

The NCACC report stated that 226 40 mm weapons were supplied to Egypt, Estonia, Japan, Jordan, Kenya, Pakistan and Indonesia. The latter also bought nine anti-material rifles and one 20 mm cannon. Turkmenistan acquired 60 sniper rifles while the United Arab Emirates bought 201 40 mm weapons and 135 60 mm mortars.Only 212 machineguns were sold in 2014, to Indonesia, Jordan and Oman. Malaysia bought 30 minefield breaching systems while the Netherlands bought 37 000 mortar bombs worth R214 million. Another large mortar contract came from the United Arab Emirates, which acquired 63 370 mortar rounds worth R232 million.

A dozen countries bought small arms ammunition from South Africa, ranging between 300 and 13 000 rounds, although the United Kingdom bought 55 260 rounds of ammunition worth R44 million.Other exports listed include self defence suites and electronic warfare equipment worth more than R40 million (most likely supplied by Saab), transponders, radio equipment, 'transceivers', laser rangefinders, sights, a submarine periscope, binoculars, 'airborne observation systems' worth tens of millions of rands, and software.[/b]

Unlike in the previous report, the type/model of equipment was not disclosed. "I am concerned that the NCACC's 'enhanced reports' are now being rolled back and less information is being provided, which appears to be aimed at hiding the names of the companies involved in the export of conventional arms from South Africa," opposition Democratic Alliance (DA) party shadow defence minister David Maynier said following the publication of the report.

Boko Haram: Thumbs up for Nigerian military

on March 06, 2015

[/size]

NIGERIAN military has accumulated years of successful war campaigns both within and outside the shores of our country.They prevailed in the Nigerian three years civil war against Biafra from 1966 to 1970, and kept Nigeria one.

They have carried out successful campaigns in peace keeping in Africa and West Africa, including the containment of internal skirmishes in Niger-Delta, Abia and Benue States ensuring that peace returned to these places, until terrorism entered Nigeria and by 2009 and a major issue called Boko Haram.

Our military was not exempted from the embarrassment of combating a group that operated with the combined tactics of guerilla warfare and that of terrorists operating within civilian human shields. Their woes became multiplied with the existence of moles, saboteurs within their fold, while our so called foreign allies did not help matters.

When Boko Haram started attacking the city of Maiduguri and areas around Borno State two years ago, America showed up with their mesmerizing bravado. Their displays on the streets of Maiduguri was encouraging to many of us, but they soon fizzled out for reasons best known to them but not without inflicting damaging blows on the psyche of our military. They heaped all sorts of bad smear on our military, to such an extent that many Nigerians almost bought their lie that we had a disjointed, poorly equipped, uncoordinated, military with low morale.

A few in the army bought the garbage, and their confidence nose dived. Nigeria’s political class and leaders, who were plotting to cash in on the failures and challenges of the military added salt to the injury. Rather than support the government, they went about and shouted loudest, in a strange jubilation, carrying the woes of our situation to same America, who then took their time to deal the hardest blows to the war efforts.

America in response, treated our government with their utmost disrespect. Senator McCain who lost to Obama during their last presidential election made very derogatory comments about the President and Commander -in – Chief of Nigerian Armed Forces, referring to our President as ” some guy called Jonathan”.

Why did our own sons go to a looser , who his people rejected as president, to get a comment? Why did our leaders choose to laugh at the ondoing of their own home government? The answers are not far fetched.Greed and inordinate desire to get power at the centre, blinded them to forget an African proverb that says ‘it is an unwise man who laughs,when a joke is made about his mother’s buttockx’.

Any insult to our President and Commander -in -Chief is an insult to all Nigerians, and it becomes more painfully vexatious when it comes from our so called allies.

America refused to sell the weapons and military hardware we needed, blocked Europe, South Africa, and Israel from selling arms to Nigeria, and turns back to suggest how we should run our elections time table! I do not blame America, I blame the Nigerians who run overseas to mess up their nation in the name of politics. They politicize every thing applicable to life in Nigeria.

Our badly frenzied opposition party have again, recently ran to London, to hold talks about our elections. They run overseas to buy houses, go there for their medicals,train their wards there, because they failed to make Nigeria a good place like the Europeans did for themselves. And shamelessly they now want our presidential candidates to go to Europe to hold debates! How many of those listeners in Europe have PVCs to vote, and of what value to Nigerian economy will such a debate in London confer? Why don’t they learn how their allies play opposition politics?

Senator McCain congratulated Obama when he was defeated in their last presidential election, but when Buhari lost in the last election, he called a press conference where he wept bitterly and thereafter vowed never to contest again. He has just met his rich friends from the South West, and they reminded him to try and go back to pick what he forgot from Dodan Barracks now Aso Rock, thirty tears ago! Now they are shouting Change. You refused to debate in Nigeria and want to debate in London, a good sign of the change indeed.

In any case, in spite of American and European double standards in the support of Nigeria against insurgency, Nigeria has managed to acquire the necessary arms, international cooperation with our neighbours, Chad, Niger and Cameroons, with French support, to change the tide of victory in favour of Nigeria, in the war.

Our gallant military, in well-coordinated efforts regained over 70 percent of Nigerian territories from the insurgents, who still control parts of Borno State, along the mountainous Cameroonian border, areas of Sambisa Forest and parts of southern Yobe state.

In effect, it is a matter of days and the insurgents will be completely flushed out of our land without a “Caliphate”

Boko Haram is likely to resort to terrorism, with suicide bombings, etc, in the months to come. Our Military has continued to protect and preserve the unity of this country and making it stable for prosperity, and defending the country’s territorial integrity from insurgency and external aggression, providing aid to civil authority.

Last week, thousands of people marched in Cameroon’s capital Yaounde protest against Nigeria’s Boko Haram insurgency and support their nation’s army, which is fighting alongside its neighbours in the region to defeat Boko Haram. Organizers said the march was aimed at informing the public, especially in the southern part of Cameroon, about the threat posed by Boko Haram, which has carried out regular cross-border raids in the far north, to tell Cameroonians that they are at war and a part of the country is suffering, and also to discourage Cameroonian youths from joining Boko Haram. I hope Nigeria will learn, leave divisive politics in time of war, and plan protests to encourage peace and youth awareness against Boko Haram, than to protest against the government and our military.

We remain grateful and indebted to our tried, tested and trusted military. We stand by them in prayers any day any time.

U.S. crude-oil supplies are at their highest level in more 80 years, according to data from the Energy Information Administration, equal to nearly 70% of the nation’s storage capacity. A key U.S. storage hub in Cushing, Okla., is expected to hit maximum capacity this spring. While estimates are rough, Citigroup Inc. believes European commercial crude storage could be more than 90% full, and inventories in South Korea, South Africa and Japan could be at more than 80% of capacity.

Thank you for your concern. grin They will first be degraded of their fighting ability and not be able to establish any coherent strategy and with improved Intel get their kingpins.

You may not know this, but they are a cross border organisation, but willnot now be able to do this. The ideology will die way over time like the previous ones.
You think by kicking BH out of captured territories, will result in the group disintegrating?

Just look at shabaab.

Naaaah. In war people die, it's normal. 150,000 civilians died in Algeria during terrorists war, yet Algerian military is much more powerful than that South African military

SA ARMS EXPORTS CLOSE TO R3BILLION


South Africa's arms exports remained stagnant with R2.98 billion in exports authorised in 2014 compared to R3.2 billion the year before and R10.6 billion in 2012, according to the latest National Conventional Arms Control Committee (NCACC) report.Although the report lists the grand total of exports as R880 million, when the individual exports are added up they reach R2.9 billion. However, the grand total for imports is listed as R200 million and when the individual items are added up they also equal R200 million.

[b]NCACC chair Jeff Radebe delivered the 2014 report to Parliament this week, which covers arms exports and imports from January to December. It revealed that South Africa's defence industry exported 326 armoured vehicles (mainly armoured personnel carriers) to nearly two dozen countries last year, as well as four mine detection vehicles to Iraq. The biggest buyers were Burkina Faso (31 vehicles), Guinea (32 vehicles), Niger (21 vehicles), Saudi Arabia (100 vehicles), Senegal (39 vehicles) and the United Arab Emirates (26). These vehicles sales amounted to more than R810 million.Other weapons exports included seven cannons to Indonesia (R7.5 million); 11 turrets to Malaysia (R235 million); four artillery systems to Saudi Arabia (R30 million), six gun/howitzers to the United Arab Emirates (R229 million); four missiles to Germany (R12 million) and five anti-material rifles to Azerbaijan (R2.2 million). The turrets are being supplied to Malaysia by Denel Land Systems for their new infantry combat vehicles. It is most likely that the Middle Eastern artillery orders involve G5/G6 artillery, also from Denel.

The NCACC report stated that 226 40 mm weapons were supplied to Egypt, Estonia, Japan, Jordan, Kenya, Pakistan and Indonesia. The latter also bought nine anti-material rifles and one 20 mm cannon. Turkmenistan acquired 60 sniper rifles while the United Arab Emirates bought 201 40 mm weapons and 135 60 mm mortars.Only 212 machineguns were sold in 2014, to Indonesia, Jordan and Oman. Malaysia bought 30 minefield breaching systems while the Netherlands bought 37 000 mortar bombs worth R214 million. Another large mortar contract came from the United Arab Emirates, which acquired 63 370 mortar rounds worth R232 million.

A dozen countries bought small arms ammunition from South Africa, ranging between 300 and 13 000 rounds, although the United Kingdom bought 55 260 rounds of ammunition worth R44 million.Other exports listed include self defence suites and electronic warfare equipment worth more than R40 million (most likely supplied by Saab), transponders, radio equipment, 'transceivers', laser rangefinders, sights, a submarine periscope, binoculars, 'airborne observation systems' worth tens of millions of rands, and software.[/b]

Unlike in the previous report, the type/model of equipment was not disclosed. "I am concerned that the NCACC's 'enhanced reports' are now being rolled back and less information is being provided, which appears to be aimed at hiding the names of the companies involved in the export of conventional arms from South Africa," opposition Democratic Alliance (DA) party shadow defence minister David Maynier said following the publication of the report.

So much weapons we see, yet South African army too afraid to reorganize and return to Bangui and save their fellow African brothers dying in the claws of Seleka rebels.

The more weapons DENEL produces, the more useless SANDF becomes. In what hot combat zone has SANDF ever deployed alone with 5,000 troops and fight bitter battle for one year to save helpless fellow African people?

You arms production and export is useless to Africa's progess as a continent. Useless ANC republic

Even France, Canada, Belgium, Australia etc now have resident terrorists. No country is safe in this world...including your South Africa....those who laugh and mock countries facing terrorism yesterday, now realize their own agony has come today......ask the Europeans. What goes around comes around

GDP per capita :
South Africa: 11500
Nigeria : 2500

thus if we had the same population as Nigeria,we would have a gdp 4,5 times that of Nigeria.

South Africa's richest - green.

Nigeria's richest - red.

You seem jealous that South Africa faces no current military threats. SA is not the only country on planet earth which currently isnt fighting a large scale war. Is the point of a defence force to go looking for a fight....like a bully? Is it not Jacob Zuma who proposed the idea of an African Rapid Response type unit to quickly move into hot, conflict type zones? Go ask your president and the AU how far they are in accepting that idea.

Dont talk like a 5 year old here please. No military will deploy to a random conflict zone thousands of km's away if there isnt any political emphasis to do so. Why doesnt Nigeria deploy to South America to defeat heavily armed drugged cartels?

NO! This map shows northerners are uneducated ...yet Naijas GDP has far surpassed Zululands' GDP, so who is the real slave? If you Zulu kaffirs weren't so uneducated your GDP would have probably be the same as ours or even more because of the infrastructure built by the pink people but sadly for you, Zulus are the worlds dumbest humans, SA will never catch Naija again. If we had stable electricity we would already be a 1trillion dollar economy.

the tone of your language clearly tells how backwards and poor you are ,if indeed this is how you people engage to each other,one can only say tribal wars and black on black hatred will continue to rule that nation until Jesus comes back...
