You are looking at the looting and arson that took place during the year Nelson Mandela became the first black South African President. I was working with SEBO at that time in the Investment Division as the Equities General Manager Of The Pension And Provident Funds.
You can see SEBO's name on top of one section of the Mall. The Mega City Mall was repaired within the following year at a cost of 10 Million Rand or $2.5 Million US. One of the riot's primary causes became known as
The 1994 Bophuthatswana crisis which began after Lucas Mangope, the president of Bophuthatswana, a South African bantustan created under apartheid, attempted to crush widespread labor unrest and popular demonstrations demanding the incorporation of the territory into South Africa pending non-racial elections later that year.[10] Violent protests immediately broke out following President Mangope's announcement on 7 March that Bophuthatswana would boycott the South African general elections.[11] He later gave into pressure and reversed his position.
In the video you will notice the participants were unarmed and when police sirens were finally heard toward the end of the video, the rioters dispersed.
I was reminded of Mega City after watching my previous post showing the Moscow Mega Mall with the same first name.
Thus begs the question how long Russians will put up with Putin and his senseless war before taking action like the people you see in this video.
