You may have seen the triumphant tweets from twits associated with cities such as Durban, Johannesburg and Cape Town saying; “Sorry for you but Durban is now the friendliest city in South Africa.”
Here is some VITAL information for you to use when defending Port Elizabeth as the official Friendly City:
The sad people averring that Durban is the friendliest city in South Africa are, unfortunately for them, basing their opinion on a so called ‘global survey’ that only focussed on three cities in South Africa – Durban, Cape Town and Johannesburg. The 2013 Anholt-GfK Roper City Brand Index ranked Durban ahead of Joburg and Cape Town as the friendliest metropolis.
Who was it who said about statistics; “Lies, lies, lies and more lies”?
