CAPE TOWN Cheap Nike Hyperadapt 1.0 JP Men's Team Orange Black , Sept. 11 (Xinhua) -- South African tourism minister on Monday warned against the escalating violence between Uber and meter-taxi drivers, saying this affects the tourism industry.
"In addition to the needless destruction of property and threat on human life, the general mood of uncertainty implicit in the violence threatens the stability of the tourism industry on which thousands of jobs are reliant," Tokozile Xasa said in response to the recent attack on Uber operators.
Violence flared up again between Uber and meter-taxi drivers last Thursday evening following the burning of two vehicles belonging to Uber drivers in Johannesburg.
Over the past several months, several people have been killed in violence related to the rivalry between meter-taxi and Uber drivers.
Uber Sub-Saharan Africa has launched a petition calling on Transport Minister Joe Maswanganyi and Police Minister Fikile Mbalula to take action to curb the violence.
The violence between the meter taxicab and Uber operators is injurious to the two since even local passengers would eventually stop patronizing either if the violence continued, Xasa said.
"In this context, it is self-evident that the operators are cutting off their noses to spite the faces," she said.
For any domestic or international tourist Cheap Nike Hyperadapt 1.0 Men's White , the sense of security is as important as the ordinary citizen, said the minister.
"However, both the meter taxicab and Uber operators need to bear in mind the fact that whereas as citizens, our relationship with South Africa is not one of choice, tourists can elect to visit one place and not another and one country instead of another," Xasa said.
She urged the two transport operators urgently to engage in dialogue, the better to find lasting solutions to their disagreements.
"No one's life must continue to be placed in danger because two operators are in disagreement with one another. This must stop!" she said.

LONDON - Thirty gold bars have been buried on a beach in Britain by a German artist, prompting a flood of bounty hunters with metal detectors to seek their fortune Friday.
The gold bars Cheap Nike Odyssey React Desert Sand Sail Women's Pink , worth a total of ￡10,000 (13,000 euros, $17,000), were buried in Folkestone, southeast England, by Berlin-based Michael Sailstorfer as part of an upcoming arts festival.
Members of the public will be allowed to keep any of the 24-carat bullion which they find.
"There are 30 gold bars buried there Cheap Nike Air Vortex , along with a lot of washers, so if you bring your metal detector you will find a lot of washers before you find any gold," festival curator Lewis Biggs told the BBC.
"We will never know if the gold has been found or not."
One treasure hunter, John Coker, told the Guardian newspaper: "It is the first art in the world where I've hopped in a car and drove to see it straight away, so that's something."
The bars, worth around ￡300 each, are a few centimeters long.
The Folkestone Triennial's website said the German artist behind the project was interested in "the disruption of the everyday".
"Sailstorfer is intent on expanding the notion of classical sculpture and Folkestone Digs is a continuation of his aim 'to make art that comes less from the head and more from the stomach Cheap Nike Epic React ,'" it said.
