Marketing 21698
Engen is going all out to welcome visitors to South Africa with its African Welcome campaign aimed at urging their staff and customers alike to do the same. And what better way to welcome visitors to South Africa and to show off South Africa's diverse cultural heritage, than to welcome them in all of our 11 official languages?
If you’re not fluent in all 11 languages, you need read no further than this article for your first crash course.
Say this out loud and repeat a couple of times until you’ve memorised it: Sanibonani (isiZulu); Molo (isiXhosa); Hallo (Afrikaans); Thobela (Sepedi); Dumela (Setswana); Lumela (Sesotho); Abusheni (Xitsonga); Sanibona (SiSwati); Avuwani (Tshivenda); Salibonani (isiNdebele); and Hello (English).
In this final stretch leading up to the big event, there is an overwhelming and growing sense of excitement; pride; and confidence that South Africa is more than ready to host this sporting event, as well as all the fans and tourists that come with an event of this stature. Engen extends an invitation to join them in creating a spectacular African Welcome. All that is needed is what we already have as a nation: profound commitment; respect; support; enthusiasm; generosity; and pride.
