60 years on from the birth of apartheid in South Africa and 14 years since the regime crumbled, sweeping the ANC to power, reporter Mike Thomson visits the country to report on its future.
FIRST REPORT: ZIMBABWEAN EXILES
 An estimated three million refugees from Zimbabwe
are living in South Africa, pouring over the border at the rate of several thousand a day. There is widespread resentment about their arrival amongst many South Africans who blame them for rising crime and taking their jobs. On arriving at the border many of them are attacked by Zimbabwean gangsters. Robbery, rape and murder is common.
 Listen to the report.

SECOND REPORT: WHO OWNS THE LAND?
 Mike looks at controversial plans for land reform in South Africa aimed at taking land from whites and putting it into the hands of the black majority. Some fear it could eventually lead to a Zimbabwe-style land grab, and the flight of most remaining whites.
