OPINION | Quraysha Ismail Sooliman: Islam, the Fifa World Cup and university prayer facilities | News24The World Cup in Qatar reveals that Muslims and Islam are often put on trial by the West. Quraysha Ismail Sooliman reflects on two developments in South Africa and whether orchestrated effort to nurture Islamophobia in South Africa have been unsuccessful. Islam is the only religion that can be practiced freely all over the world. This doesn't apply to other religions especially in Muslim countries. Football is meant to be played in the winter. Respect works both ways and not one way. The tradition of football for over 8 decades has a freedom of beverages and eats, I don't think one nation can change that long time tradition. Don't change people. Is this the same religion that takes itself to other countries, Christian countries, and demand the right to practice their religion and customs without critique?

EDUCATION: Provinces aren’t hiring enough teachers, despite a growing need and sufficient supply – Stellenbosch university reportMore than 28,000 public-sector teachers graduated in 2021, yet provinces only hired 14,522 graduates – even though South Africa is riding an unprecedented retirement wave of public-school teachers as it faces a growing school-age population. These are the recent findings from the first series of reports from the Teacher Demographic Dividend project released on 1 December, which was conducted by researchers at Stellenbosch University’s research on socioeconomic policy unit over the past three years. Always a sense of amazement to me that after decades of suppression and regression, a so called liberation movement would rather destroy a country they inherited, and provide substandard education for their children. I SUSPECT that the SA government does not use the credible data to plan and address service delivery issues, that's why such mismatches are prevalent across government departments and SoEs. SA, and particularly govt, has a management problem.
