Vuvuzelas - Noisy Plastic Trumpets in All Colours
According to bbc news Motoaki Inukai, the president of the Japan Football Association (JFA), wants the noisy vuvuzela trumpet to be banned from the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.
Noisy Plastic Trumpet!
And to add insult to this sign of cultural intolerance, when asked for his thoughts on the subject after Saturday’s stalemate, Japan coach Takeshi Okada responded dryly: “Perhaps if they play good football (the fans) will be quiet and watch.”
Vuvuzela is Here to Stay
Haven’t they got the message that FIFA Boss Sepp Blatter has already been through the process and said that the Vuvuzela was there to stay.
The poor Japanese players, who were certainly stronger than Bafana Bafana played the South African National team in an international friendly in Port Elizabeth on Saturday and were held to a goalless draw, despite being a much higher ranked and stronger side.
Of course, they blamed their misfortunes on the vuvuzela. They could not hear each other on the field they said and had to use handsigns… Eish!
Calling for A Ban on the Vuvuzela
Now they are calling for a ban on our Vuvuzelas during the 2010 World Cup.
I am sick and tired of this cultural intolerance and a paternalistic attitude to Africa and Africans. Just as any person with good manners does not walk into someone else’s home and help themselves to food in their fridge or re-arrange their furniture, these guests (I say that guardedly) in our country should respect our culture and customs.
Buy a Vuvuzela and Support your Team
If South African soccer fans want to blow vuvuzelas, then it is no business of Japan or Italy or Germany to come into our country to tell us how to behave, so buy a vuvuzela (if you don’t have one already and support your team!

I Thabiso eudy dipudi, I still think that East and some western Countries still take African countries for granted the issue of baning our vuvuzela form our soccer stadium is not a big issue, the bigger picture is that SA is doing well competing to other countries and some issues the are political motivated and still in a shock of doing well with the preparations for 2010.
Thats true “you cant get into someone`s home and rearrenging the furniture and also change the rules of the House” And also bafana Bafana need to change their attitude towads this game of football and also they have to bring back our pride and please people journalist must stop justifying negative thigs if Bafana Bafana dont do well they did`nt do well it ends there and South Africans must stop beign ignorant But in conclusion I Just Wanna Say Maziwe Mzansi Shayani Ivuvuzela Kuduzela Potoko! Potoko! Potoko!
