Kenny Kunene, owner of ZAR, booked a huge space at the Waterfront Studios, in the Cape Town Film Precinct, turning it into the kind of instant gratification experience Richie Rich would enjoy, if he were black. The now trademark bikini-clad girl with sushi draped on her body was there, lying on the bonnet of an overpriced sports car, with movers and shakers all enjoying copious amounts of the finest whiskies and wines (complimentary at the VVIP and VIP bars) money can buy.
Kunene himself, resplendent in a bling red jacket and matching glitzy shades, was playing the affable host, hugging and greeting all and sundry.

"Helen Zille will not close ZAR at 2am, like she does to other clubs in Cape Town. The ANC owns ZAR and we will party until the morning".

Read about this in The Economist online. SA has really become a banana republic.
I love this Japanese kulchaerrural exchange program, and how things get lost in translation...
First you hire the the serving board, then you wash it and place food on it then you serve expensive sham-pain into it's mouth....?
So you're paying to get this person to consume alcohol? Naked wearing food.... lost in translation...
