The Urban Fabric of Post-Apartheid Africa
Since the abolition of Apartheid in 1994, the South African government has been saddled with the job of redeeming the social and urban structure of Cape Town, which still bears the aftermath of the apartheid years in its identity as well as its planning.
Due to the segregation that was entrenched in South African society at the time, the apartheid city was dominated by a pattern of low-density, largely single-storey housing for white people, with high density slums occurring in pockets of land where there would be informal housing and constraints on land availability for the native blacks.
The Solution that the post-apartheid urban planners suggested for the renovation of the social and urban fabric of Cape Town was to essentially establish a balance between the primeval nature, the rural, and the urban. The best land would be used for conservation, setting aside the worst to improve the diversity and complexity of the city.
Urban environments would be created in the large spaces of unnatural buffers between settlements, easily accessible by foot (or, preferably, a well-developed transportation system). Also, the hope was to increase the density of the residential areas in order to counteract the urban sprawl of the one-storey neighborhoods. This would also be a prerequisite for an effective transportation system.

My name is hoover, my 18 year old daughter, Tricia was diagnosed with herpes 3 years ago. Since then, we have moved from one hospital to another. We tried all kinds of pills, but every effort to get rid of the virus was futile. The bubbles continued to reappear after a few months. My daughter was using 200mg acyclovir pills. 2 tablets every 6 hours and 15g of fusitin cream. and H5 POT. Permanganate with water to be applied twice a day, but all still do not show results. So, I was on the internet a few months ago, to look for other ways to save my only son. Only then did I come across a comment about the herbal treatment of Dr Imoloa and decided to give it a try.
