For any soccer fanatics out there, such as myself, the World Cup in 2010 seems to be quite a ways off. However, players and workers alike are already training and getting prepared for the 2010 World Cup. While players are out conditioning and training for this competition, South Africa is training by preparing their security to host this event.
The 2010 tournament will be held in South Africa, the "crime capitol" of the world. Hoping to ease the tension and fear of prospective spectators, World Cup organizers are ensuring that soccer fans will be able to safely watch the games in Africa. Chief Danny Jordaan, South Africa's organizing chief, has stated that there hasn't been a single incident during any big international events in South Africa since multiparty democracy in 1994.
"Crime in South Africa has steadily fallen in the past few years," says Deputy Police Commissioner, Andres Pruis. The South African government plans to spend a US dollar equivalent of 64 million dollars on 41,000 officers to patrol the World Cup and 66 million dollars on equipment such as helicopters, unmanned aircraft, border patrol and crowd-control equipment. All these efforts are in hopes of providing a safe atmosphere for fans to come enjoy the 2010 World Cup in South Africa and bring more attention to the beautiful wild life and nature that South Africa has to offer.
