Rubbish

Traders are forced to trade in very unhygienic conditions due to the build up of garbage in the Johannesburg CBD due to the Pikitup strike, 18 April 2011.
Having been in the dodgier places of the Johannesburg CBD many times, I'm used to the piles of garbage, the smells and the garbage all over the place, but this was in a different league. The piles of rubbish were all over the place , traders were still selling their veggies, cooked food etc because they have no choice. It's unbelievable...
