The translation (sorry for the wait but it is in fact not ZULU but XHOSA the letter is written.)by a friend of mine that does not know anything about horseracing,this is his direct translation...

In all gauteng grooms especially the leading team
All respected gentlemen,i have an announcement that i want to inform you about,as you know already,the matter/agenda that we are about that strike that started and as you know everything is going to an end.
Phumelela and Bhuluhi will listen to us now ,what they were doing has come to an end.
i have even included government to assist us ,and the government agreed to assist us,so these vultures wont eat our money.Government also agreed to assist about our savings money but first government want to see our seriousness about our team/congregation and government want to see how much are our monthly contributions so he can assist with something significant.
So in my meeting with minister in parliament ,i told him we are serious and committed about this change that we need.He also suggested that we pay R150 in our team every fortnight and money must be saved monthly.
That has to start end of November ,the minister also wants to see our bank statement urgently,so he can see as he was saying.Make reference your _______? when depositing money.
Your leaders there in gauteng know about what i am telling you.If you need to validate you can meet with them,they will show you proof that government want to give us money.
We agree with government that the first thing is to remove Miholo Groom and he/she will leave phumelela alone.It will not be more than R1000 a week
your faithful

If I was a groom I would be scared if I interpreted this letter right. It might not only be a fool and his money are soon parted, it might be the grooms too.

Yip, i would run for the hills if a government official wanted to see my bank account...:S

no wonder my faith in huge horse purchases are being curtailed ,how would a fool like this be able to look after a horse of value ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????//

Lol. So true. Your money invested in horseflesh bad enough. Now you must leave it in the hands of a disgruntled groom. Sho!!!
