It think translated it'll be:

The dudes with the hilarious uniforms (the AWB) don't have much to talk about today.

I am not Afrikaans but I appreciate the langauge and the good aspects of the Afrikaaner culture. More and more Afrikaaners have learnt to laugh at themselves. Do you know Koos Kombuis?

Perhaps you should visit this country, it has changed a lot since 1994.

Bosse de Nage is a character from "Doctor Faustroll" written by Alfred Jarry. He is a baboon. 🙂

I can't write in Dutch without much laborious effort so if the Babelfish can't do Afrikaans, that's it.

My Dutch wouldn't need Babelfish to be hilarious...
