You may wish to point out that:


-za has 3 anycast NSs (PCH, ISC and Netnod) where the bulk of the 
infrastructure is non South African.

-co.za has a unicast US based NS (under the control of a South African 
Entity) and an anycast NS where most of the infrastructure is non South 
African.


which, by the logic you've presented from this person, makes the use of 
any za domain a non-starter?

or do parents severs not count when we're resolving names......
