Public belief in 2010 grows

4 December 2006

Almost three-quarters of South Africans believe that the country will be ready by 2010 to host the World Cup.

The latest poll by African Response reveals that there has been a steady shifting of perceptions.

The poll also found that awareness is extremely high across all race groups.

More than two-thirds of respondents indicated that they are either extremely likely or likely to attend at least one of the matches during the event.

This is compared to the 54% who stated the same thing in the previous poll. 87% of respondents say South Africa as a whole will benefit from preparing from the World Cup.

The survey which was conducted among 250 people was established to track public perceptions on the progress of SA’s preparations for the event.
