Cele: South Africa) Friday, March 5, 2010 Foto-term netAu seminar on security for the World Cup FIFA 2010 South Africa, met Bheki Cele, National Commissioner of Police South africaine.M. Cele, South Africa has organized several major tournaments in the past, but what are the challenges unique to host a FIFA World Cup.

We are in a situation where history is being done, because Africa has never hosted an event of this magnitude. But South Africa has already organized more than 140 major sporting events. This means that we all understand the fundamental issues of an event of this type. The last year we had the Confederations Cup to FIFA. Before that, we had already hosted the African Cup of Nations in 1996 and the Rugby World Cup and Cricket. Therefore, the experience is there. We just need to redouble our efforts. Less than 100 days from kick-off, where are you in the preparations

There are still some details left to settle between the teams, security personnel and security of the countries involved. When the referee will kick off June 11, we can say: Bravo, South Africa is ready. How many people will be charged with security at the World Cup FIFA

The South African police officers hurry up 188,000. We are one of the three countries with the largest number of inhabitants per police officer. But the event has allowed us to make enormous progress since the South African government has affected 1.3 billion rand [130 million] to security issues, technology, the equipment and training. These funds have never been available without the World Cup 2010. So we are ready. We have equipment and modern technologies. Our agents are trained in specific areas. It will be very useful not only for the 2010 World Cup, but also – more importantly – beyond 2010. That this would have brought the World Cup to South African Police!
