Asian Persuasion
Fafi is by far the most common form of gambling in Gauteng townships. Apparently originating in China and brought to South Africa in the early 1900’s, it was first played by miners in the old Transvaal province. It is a mobile form of lottery in which punters select a number from 1 to 36 and the dividends paid to the winning number are 1:28. The bets are placed and the winnings drawn in a luxury car with tinted windows which cruises the township streets and arrives at a designated station (shop, house, street corner).
