Officials advertise for 100 new doctors - but white people are told not to apply
|
[Mail] A race row has broken out in South Africa after health officials advertised for 100 new doctors, but did not allow white medics to apply for specialist roles.
News you probably won't hear about in most western networks.
The health department in the KwaZulu-Natal province expanded its registrar programme for 2019 from 314 to 414, but aimed to fill the new posts with only black candidates.
Health bosses said the move was implemented to redress the country's historical racial imbalance of Apartheid that saw most high-ranking positions filed by white doctors.
Campaigners and human rights activists have branded the recruitment policy 'discriminatory, unconstitutional and racist'.
But at least white medics no longer have to waste their time submitting applications. Those medics are badly needed back on the crime-ridden streets.
Leaked documents show the department wanted to train a total of 366 black doctors and had already recruited 32 Indian, 12 white and four mixed race registrars, but need a further 100 black medics to meet employment equity targets.
Tracking applicants by race are they? How very apartheid progressiewe (progressive).
