hahahahaha!! because you don't know the world :) there are many kinds of people in south africa - white, indian, moslem, chinese, jewish, russian, american, australian and even a race of black white mixed people who call themselves coloureds. These people are uniquely south african. a lot of them are in cape town. i know the term "coloured" is very offensive in some countries but that the term that has stuck here in south africa and trust me, it would be changed if they wanted that but they like the name coloured.
