South Africa finds itself in the middle of an immigration crisis, not because people are crossing our borders, but because government has failed to manage, regulate and enforce immigration laws.

For years, the government has failed to regulate immigration properly. Weak border management and poor enforcement have allowed undocumented migration to spiral out of control.
