i could not believe it, my ex-colleague, komathi, is so famous that `her admirers' posted so much praises and hopes for her. i felt that all my effort in promoting South Africa via SATOUR, MATTA and other exhi (1998-2005) went to the drain. let me flash back why i quit my job on the first place, ok now i remember …

True words Lina. The lady in this post, however, is not South African, she's Malaysian :/

I was surfing the net rgds embassies, and HCs.

Saw this subject, and that s sad. I have background working w embassy, if they need one I would like to put myself in. I have very much interest to the position-professionally, and personally. I'm in love with Africa too much (esp the southern part)-the country, the culture, the people. Thanks to my african friends who make me view Africa differently. Africa is beautiful. Whoever you are, whatever you do, you project the image of your country-because YOU ARE THE AMBASSADOR OF YOUR COUNTRY.

This Komotie woman is really very rude. I can't imagine having to deal with her.

Be assured . . . Komatie is famous throughout the South African expat community for her general incompetence. Hopefully she will be replaced soon. I have heard that the South African Diplomatic Service has been forgotten with all of the other (self-created) challenges the South African government has had to deal with. That is probably the only reason she has been able to survive in Malaysia this long. However, there is a new move to remove incompetent diplomatic personnel from their posts because they give South Africa a bad name . . . when you Google South African High Commission Malaysia, this blog is one of the top search results . . . great PR for South Africa . . . so people like Komatie are not going to have a long shelf life if they keep up their antics . . . let's hope the new political party helps to speed up this process. I am tired of hearing from North American and European friends how efficient their offices are . . . it encourages you to consider changing your citizenship . . .

From your post I can comment – you did miss-spell – should be Komodo.

You make me worried. Although a frequent visitor to MY over the past 8 years, I never had to interact with the bureaucracy of the RSA gov. Now I am here permanently, having given all up in RSA and making a new start here.

I will however heed the warning, thanks!
