Who will win the FIFA South Africa World Cup 2010 Trophy?

South Africa Probes Airline Collusion Ahead Of World Cup

By Gus Lubin in BusinessInsider.com

South Africa has been quickly besieged with corruption charges leading up to Africa's first World Cup.

The government's competition commission is investigating collusion and price-fixing among local and international airlines, including Comair's British Airways, according to the Mail & Guardian.

Email correspondence between airlines, which was obtained by the commission, suggests a plan to raise prices during the World Cup in June and July.

Only weeks ago, the South African government was reassuring the world that a lethal machine-gun attack on members of the Togo soccer team during the Africa Cup of Nations was not typical of sports competitions in Africa.

But at least the MAVINS nation is being active in routing out risk and corruption. The FIFA World Cup provides their best chance to rise to world prominence since they hosted the Rugby World Cup in 1995.
