Who throws those things in the streets? Sometimes pple we must take charge of our own lives, am sure if the community can run a cleanup drive one day they can remove all that.<\/p>\n<p><strong>@david_kholofelo<\/strong> \u2013 Sometimes we need to take responsibility as civilians, DA did not offload all that dump there. The locals did that, they need to practice cleanliness. How do you feel dumping garbage in the middle of the street?<\/p>\n<p><strong>@Stoni_Luyanda <\/strong>\u2013 Khayelitsha has Green waste Containers for informal settlements,they receive Blue waste bags from the Cleaners every week i think.Those who live in this area should look in the Mirror instead of blamming other people.<\/p>\n<p><strong>@LisasaysSA1st <\/strong>\u2013 I see uncollected refuse bags. While I believe people should start doing things themselves it\u2019s amazing to see how the reaction to bad service delivery is when it\u2019s a white government. All of a sudden it\u2019s the people\u2019s fault<\/p>\n<p><strong>@missleejoyful<\/strong> \u2013 I\u2019m from a village we do not have municipality come collect Dustin bins or running water yet we keep out villages clean. Growing up people from the same street will even come together to clean the area. The community needs to start doing something they are the ones littering.<\/p>\n<p><strong>@jacnive <\/strong>\u2013 As a rural person I can never understand this about city people! So you will really live with garbage and wait for someone to clean it for you? There is nothing that YOU can do? Who throws garbage in the street and not bins? Is it the DA?
