Ops. Maybe I am an idiot, or else I'll say obvious
things. EIther way, sorry.

.Za.Net and ZA.ORG aren't .ZA domain names.
They are .NET an .ORG subdomains. They
were registered exactly I would register
mycompany.com.

I assume that the S. Africa government
won't/cannot make any claim on domains that
belong to the .NET and .ORG TLDs.
In fact these are meant to be international
and .Za.Net/.Za.Org despite their appearence,
are third level domains of international TLDs.
