So, a mere 10 months into the year, I've finally updated the Translation Database and just posted a new version of the spreadsheet for 2011 and posted the first version of the spreadsheet for 2012..
I'm fully aware that the 2012 list of poetry books is woefully incomplete, so if you are a poet, or a translator of poetry, or a reader of the poetic form, PLEASE email me with info on all of the books that are not listed here. I'm going to go through the SPD catalog really carefully when I get back from Sharjah (yeah, really, I'll explain later), but it's SO much easier to get the info from all of you.
Since the poetry needs to be updated, I'm going to save any global comments about the state of literature in translation in the U.S. for a later post. It is worth noting that at this moment, I've identified 385 original1 translations published in 2012, compared to 370 in 2011—a 4% increase. This isn't huge, but if we do identify 20-30 more poetry books, this could end up being closer to a 10% increase, which would be pretty significant.
Sticking to fiction though, there are 342 translated titles published in 2012, compared to 303 in 2011—a notable 13% increase. If you look at the top 10 publishers of translated fiction, they accounted for 107 books in 2011 (Dalkey 30; AmazonCrossing 17; Knopf 11; Europa 9; New Directions 9; Seagull Books 9; Houghton Mifflin Harcourt 8; New York Review Books 7; Open Letter 7) and 139 in 2012 (Dalkey 32; AmazonCrossing 25; Europa 14; Seagull 14; American University at Cairo 12; FSG 10; Other Press 10; Open Letter 8; Archipelago 7; New Directions 7).
There are a few changes in the most translated languages rankings . . . Here's the list from 2011:
French (63)
Spanish (50)
German (39)
Japanese (23)
Italian (20)
Russian (19)
Swedish (19)
Arabic (15)
Norwegian (14)
Chinese (12)
And 2012:
French (57)
German (50)
Spanish (45)
Italian (32)
Arabic (25)
Swedish (23)
Russian (17)
Portuguese (15)
Japanese (13)
Chinese (11)
The one I'm most interested in watching over the next few years is Japanese. As we have yet to report, the Japanese Literature Publishing Project went kaputt over the summer, which is going to a huge blow to Dalkey Archive's Japanese Literature Series and to several other presses. The number of titles published in the U.S. has already dropped from 23 to 13, and I wouldn't at all be surprised if Japanese falls out of the top 10 in 2013.
Anyway, download the spreadsheet and take a look at all of the books and stats. If you find anything interesting, or know of titles that need to be added, just let me know, or post them in the comments below.
1 "Original" means that the book has never before appeared in any English translation at all. Even if a book was first translated in 1932, sold 7 copies, and was just rediscovered and translated anew in 2012, it won't be included in this database. My goal in setting this up was to identify "new" voices/books that English readers never before had access to in any form.

Three men arrested for an armed robbery Wednesday night are being questioned about a string of robberies in Spokane County in the last month.
Nedzad Mesanovic, 20, (right) of Spokane; Miroslav Veselinovic, 22, of Spokane; and Reza Abghari, 26, of Colbert, were driving a dark Ford Taurus that a Spokane police officer recognized from a robbery report at the Zip Trip, 711 W. Hastings, at 11:15 p.m., according to the Spokane County Sheriff's Office.
Abghari made headlines in 2004 after he shot his then-13-year-old girlfriend while pointing what he thought was an unloaded gun at her.
Last night's bust was spurred by the watchful police officer.
In light of a recent string of robberies one after another, the officer began watching a convenience store at Francis Avenue and Elgin Street, where he spotted Taurus parked behind a fence nearby.
The men sped away but were stopped by several patrol officers who found cigars stolen in the robbery and "a realistic-looking pellet gun," according to the Sheriff's Office.
Deputies brought the Zip Trip clerk to the traffic stop, where the clerk "identified Abgahri as the gunman and Mesanovic as the getaway driver," according to the news release. A woman in the car at the time of the robbery was interviewed and released by the Sheriff's Office.
The three men remain in Spokane County Jail after appearing in Superior Court today via video.
Mesanovic was wanted for malicious harassment and second-degree theft in February 2008, according to a Crime Stoppers news released that called his two-year criminal history "impressive."
News archives show he spent three and a half months in jail after being found guilty of conspiracy to possess a controlled substance and second-degree theft in February 2009.
Abghari was convicted of third-degree assault and a weapons charge and was sentenced to 2 1/2 years in prison in 2005 for shooting his 13-year-old girlfriend between the eyes "while pretending to be a gangster," according to previously published reports.
Police said Abghari thought the gun was unloaded when he pulled the trigger. The girl was blinded in her right eye and left deaf in her right ear.

Aviation insurance experts have said that the atrocious missile attack on Malaysia Airlines flight MH17 could cost hundreds of millions of dollars in legal battles and compensation.
Following yesterday's tragic events, insurers and lawyers have begun thinking about the potential costs.
Joseph Wheeler, an aviation lawyer at Shine Lawyers, told the Wall Street Journal: "This is going to be a very long, convoluted and politically charged compensation case for those families."
"In terms of a loss this size, you are looking at hundreds of millions," he continued.
Malaysia Airlines will have to shell out compensation in the first instance thanks to the invocation of the Montreal Convention – an international aviation agreement. The already struggling airline could be forced to pay out up to $170,000 per passenger, whether it's at blame or not.
Malaysia Airlines will likely have to shoulder a proportion of blame because it knew Ukraine was a danger zone.
"The difficulty facing Malaysia Airlines here is that the passengers could argue that most airlines...knew the Ukraine airspace was a war zone and that two other aircraft had been shot down the previous week," said aviation law partner at Cooper Grace Ward Lawyers, Kevin Bartlett.

5 Reasons Why Mountain Dew Dropping Lil Wayne Is A Big Deal
Reason #3: Other rappers are less likely to get endorsement deals now because of what just happened with Mountain Dew and Lil Wayne.
Corporations aren't stupid. If they can use a high-profile rapper to make a quick buck, they will. So the issues that Rick Ross and Wayne have faced aren't going to stop them from offering endorsement deals to rappers altogether. But they WILL think long and hard each and every time they consider a rapper for a deal in the immediate future. Guys like Jay-Z and Swizz Beatz will be immune because of their strong track records. But if a corporation thinks a rapper could harm their brand in any way, they'll avoid working with him or her because of what just took place with Ross and Weezy. And that's a real shame for all of the rappers out there who deserve endorsement deals right now.

Himachal Pradesh Chief minister Prem Kumar Dhumal on Friday wrote to Union Minister of Commerce and Industries Anand Sharma conveying the government's decision not to allow FDI in multi-brand retail in the state.
"The BJP government is committed to protect the interests of petty traders and entrepreneurs by not allowing implementation of foreign direct investment... A large number of educated unemployed were engaged in petty trades in different parts of the state and with the coming of FDI, they would find difficult to ensure both ends meet and have no sources of income," wrote Dhumal.
Saying that Sharma had never communicated with the state government at any level to seek consent about implementation of FDI in Himachal, Dhumal said: "The BJP government has always been opposing the FDI in the country and same was the case in Himachal Pradesh. The government is committed for not allowing the FDI in retail in any manner in the state."
He added that Himachal Pradesh has been repeatedly asking Sharma to increase import duty on apples to protect the interests of the growers but the same had not been acknowledged by him.
"Apple cultivation happens to be a major income generating activity for fruit growers in the state and it was within the Centre's jurisdiction to levy heavy duty to discourage import of apple from foreign countries... During NDA regime, besides increasing import duty, various restrictions were imposed upon import of apple which benefited growers by fetching reasonably good price for their produce," he wrote.

Survivor Review: A Ticking Time Bomb...by Luke Dwyer at . Comments
In the TV Fanatic offices, we share Brandon's open door policy. With that in mind, I feel it is my obligation, as a Christian man, to be straight with you about this week's episode of Survivor, "Ticking Time Bomb."
It stunk.
Disappointingly, I don't think it is going to get any better next week, either. If what seems to be the core trio of Coach, Albert and Sophie were not going to vote out Brandon this week, why would they do so next Wednesday?
There's no reason to do so. He's not bright enough to see that he's number-four in the alliance. Instead, they'll send Rick home and then calmly vote out Brandon the following week.
Not only is Brandon blind to his place on the tribe, he wouldn't be able to see the writing on the wall if someone tried to tell him all about it. Thus, it made little sense for Edna to try to talk to him to get some numbers on her side. Brandon would have ignored any warnings she presented and ran to Coach to tattle on Edna.
What is surprising is that Edna played one card, that of integrity. Predictably, it didn't work. Edna spent a lot of the episode talking about how she felt duped, but kept trying to play in to the same bulls*** that was fed to her in the first place.
It didn't work for Cochran, why would it suddenly work for her? Because Brandon mouthed off at the challenge? Again, she keeps ignoring the elephant in the room: Upolu's honor and integrity policy is a smokescreen. It's designed to distract the players away from thinking about the game.
In all likelihood, Edna's fate was sealed when Cochran was voted off. But why not try to talk to Rick? Play the 'tomorrow, you're going to be in the same position as me' and see if he can help you with the leg work. Yeah, okay, unlikely coming from Rick, I know, but why not try? She received next to nothing positive from Coach, Albert and Sophie.
The most interesting part of the episode was Sean Hantz, Brandon's father, virtually joining the game. He's the real mini-Russell Hantz and he went right to work once he got the chance. After assessing Brandon's pathetic excuse for how he planned to play the game, Sean went straight to Coach and tried to bully him in to getting his son to the finals.
I loved it! Finally, someone stood up to Coach and Ozzy to take the spotlight in the game. Not only that, the way he did it went completely contrary to Coach's honor and integrity Upolu tribe policy. He's the type of personality the show has needed for the past two seasons.
Speaking of Ozzy, how obnoxious was he when Cochran showed up at Redemption Island? Did you learn your lesson? Shut up, cocky punk. It was a good move for Cochran and I think he would do it again if the same scenario played out. How did Cochran handle it? In his typical demur style, virtually admitting that he made a mistake switching sides. I'd rather he just went in and told Ozzy to keep his mouth shut. Ozzy's future was no better with Savaii either.
More from this episode:
- For the life of me I cannot figure out what Coach is doing by thinking taking Ozzy to the finals is a good idea and then telling him about it. How is having Ozzy next to you beneficial? He's got at least four Savaii votes on the jury already.
- The immunity challenge did not make for great television, but it's an awesome game for a challenge. Everyone's got a reasonable chance no matter their size.
- Brandon tries to hide behind his transparency, which is ironic. He really does absolve anything he does by apologizing for it. The first time that's reasonable. But the second time?
- I wish CBS would save us the fake drama build up. Did anyone actually think Edna was going to be saved?
- Some great quotes this week, particularly from Edna and Sophie. Check 'em out.

I hope they DON'T have a Hantz on every season. I agree that they need people to actually play the game and be willing to shake things up (that's why I loved Cochran this season), but there's a problem in their casting department if the only people they can find to do that all come from the same family.
The only thing that caught my attention was Sean! I loved his face when he realized Brandon has lost his mind and his focus on the end goal. Then when Sean realized talking to Brandon was a waste of time and went directly to the boss. I loved Coaches face when Sean basically told to take my son to the end or else. They should have a Hantz on every season but only the ones who seem to have a personality built for this game.
Survivor is ridculously boring this season, don't want anyone in particular to win, no-one is that likeable! Yawn!!!!

Eva Amurri Martino had all her ducks in a row awaiting the arrival of her first child with NBC soccer analyst Kyle Martino.
But nothing could have prepared her for the 36-hour labor and delivery of little Marlowe Mae, who arrived on Aug. 9 — 11 days early.
Mom Susan Sarandon was on the first flight to Los Angeles once she received the call from her daughter and by her side, along with Kyle, during the delivery. "It was great to have her here," the actress, 29, tells PEOPLE exclusively.
Her "marathon" homebirth at the couple's California abode was a "really, really, intense experience," she says.
"I just felt so lucky to have the kind of delivery that I wanted and that there were no complications. At the time, I was like, 'Maybe I'm crazy' because it was so intense. I think everyone has that moment when they're in labor, but once she came out I felt like I could do it again in a second."
Adds Eva, "I expected it to be a very weepy moment and for me, it was totally surreal."

In the five-year gap between 2006 album The Open Door and last year's self-titled follow-up, Evanescence lost almost all of their members and reportedly flirted with both Celtic music and electronica. Not that you'd know it from listening to Evanescence, which repeats the multi-million-selling operatic goth metal format of the group's previous two records. Vocalist Amy Lee – the sole original member – possesses an impressive set of pipes, but sooner or later, surely, she's going to have to grow up and move on. Support comes from Evanescence-aping Japanese band Dazzle Vision.

Re:And yet... (2987 comments)
Like protection and deterrence? I think yes.
Dawkins and the appearance of design (44 comments)
I suspect the evidence, itself, supports both The Logic of Chance and Intelligent Design. Dawkins says this world's biology expresses an appearance of design. I'm not sure why, then, the conclusion of actual design is simply thrown out. If someone pursues Truth and then categorically throws out the other half of the premises because of the philosophical belief that science is the only path to Truth (a statement that cannot be empirically tested), then that person seems to be interested in truth if the conclusions are what was expected a priori. Contrary evidence is simply ignored.
Re:Obvious (1128 comments)
Conservatives don't trust the Republican party. And I love your pointing out that reality doesn't care. That's perfect.
And, you know, there are a whole bunch of us religious folk who want to develop well thought out positions using the evidence that science provides.
On both sides of this specific argument, the religious as well as the liberal, it seems it's the wackos are used as strawmen to strengthen the opposing position. Science is interpreted. A scientist may have a healthy skepticism with respect to their personal interpretation. An adherent to scientism, or someone who reasons circularly from the materialist worldview that you have to start with matter and any other starting point is apriori dismissed, will dogmatically hold to their position generally without thinking through the implications and developing a logical argument. This is just as bad as the Westboro Baptist Church showing up at the funeral of a soldier.
Granted, many religious people don't think through their own positions and could not provide evidence, let alone a logical argument supporting their position on any number of fundamental matters, e.g. for Christianity take the evidence for Jesus' rising from the dead. This is no better than the adherent to scientism who claims that only science can provide answers. Why? Because that statement is not scientifically testable. It's a philosophical statement. There is no empirical method to determine if science, in fact, is the only discipline that can provide truth statements. Yet, if you can move away from the wackos I think we'd find many religious people willing to engage in rational discussion about scientific matters, and that many of them are gainfully employed in the scientific disciplines.
Re:I have problems with this (1319 comments)
"Why can't religious people see this as a much, much greater feat of creation, resulting in God being infinitely more omnipotent?"
Mmmmm, because there is no evidence for a multiverse?
It's not testable. It's an idea. An idea that seems to explain away the problems of God found in our universe. The problem is that an idea does not equal truth. When faced with multiple ideas the weight of the evidence should be the basis of some rational line of thinking. And the evidence does not support a multiverse.
I also suspect religious people don't see the physical creation, or more specifically God's omnipotence, as the whole character of God. There's the omnibenevolent and omniscient aspects (etc.) as well. Just because God can do something doesn't mean he should or did or does do something. And despite his omnipotence, God cannot create a square circle. His omnipotence is bounded by logic.
Re:What was the point of this exercise? (943 comments)
I think your statement is interesting because you have systematically predetermined that we should not explore the worldview and have an opportunity to increase our knowledge.
Re:A fatal flaw in Christianity. (943 comments)
I would venture to say that evidence exists to support or discredit any claim about anything. Because evidence exists does not make the claim true or not true. While this is one explanation it should be viewed with respect to other explanations with the evidence lending support to the conclusion.
The claim you make rests on an assertion that "the Genesis myths were allegory because those desert nomads didn't know how the world began." I think this one needs substantiation. Similarly, we can assert that the only true knowledge is that which science verifies. Well, that statement is not testable and becomes self-refuting. So if you say the nomads didn't know how the world began but we do now because of science, unfortunately that is not the end of the story.
Furthermore, the evidence that Paul made the whole thing up has a hard time standing up to the preponderance of evidence supporting a risen Jesus among other things. A "fatal flaw" in this case seems more akin to a line of reasoning that simply needs to be explored and weighed against other evidence.

Re:Unionize this (1008 comments)
It seems that when scaled up, the spirit of communism devolves into the communism in name only that we all know so well. I believe this devolution is a factor of human nature to screw up a good thing. And that's making an assumption that communism is a good thing - an entirely different subject.
Re:Not a Flaw (148 comments)
Interesting. I'd agree on a number of levels with this position. I've had to help a 60-something woman (who recently lost her husband who did all the computer work) to get her wireless mouse working. Because the USB nub wireless receiver fit perfectly into her mouse for storage, she assumed that is where the nub was supposed to go. She didn't understand why her mouse didn't work. She laughed when I "fixed" her problem in about 12 seconds.
I guess the appropriate response is know your audience. How do they work? What do they want to see and how do they want to see it? Perhaps the eG8 knows their audience. Perhaps we hangers-out on slashdot are not the primary audience.
Re:Question (949 comments)
I suppose an intellectual is neither of these. Perhaps as dogmatixpsych states, an intellectual may be segregated from the real world behind the walls of academia. I'd like to think that an intellectual neither memorizes nor learns but synthesizes and develops alternatives based on what is already known. If an intellectual happens to be grounded in the real world then those alternatives may also be relevant and productive.
Re:Current theory says the universe expands foreve (188 comments)
Yeah, this is a tough one, too. Since no evidence exists for alternative universes, either preceding or parallel, these things cannot be tested. Just because a parent universe could exist doesn't mean it did exist. The only evidence available is that the universe we live in is the only universe that does or has ever existed. So when ordering possibilities, the parent universe and a lineage of universes falls lower in likelihood than the current universe is the only one, ever.
Re:Multi-Verse Collisions (188 comments)
This is a tough one. Theory is a strong word. It's not even a hypothesis as it simply can't be tested. No evidence exists. Multiverse seems to be more a postulation of a possibility, even if the idea sounds scientific enough to be a reality. I believe in realm of the possible, possibilities need to be ordered in terms of likeliness based on the evidence we have. So your disclaimer IANAS is appropriate. I appreciate your candor!
Re:yes but... (1251 comments)
A bit late to the party here but it seems this isn't an argument about whether or not God exists but where this whole universe came from. To date, neither religion nor science can prove any hypothesis about where the universe came from. And to say that science will figure that out eventually seems like scientism, or putting the same kind of religious faith in science that the religious place in God.
I don't think it belongs in the theology department, either. Probably better suited in the rigors and frameworks of philosophy than any other discipline. The same goes for scientists who believe that science will eventually answer all the questions. Why? Because science cannot empirically test whether or not science will answer all questions. It's a philosophical statement.
Re:mixed feelings and abstract hate. (917 comments)
Here, here. Freakin' sensitive. I suppose the word is tolerant. Tolerant of other people's views. When I tolerate something I tend to hold my nose, grimace, then chew it up. I don't have to tolerate things that I don't care about or that I agree with.
The work here is being done (361 comments)

|Surfing around, I found this cool site. Hope it's new to you, ran a search.
The possibilities are endless w/ this main frame! Weather you add glass, plywood, anything or nothing to the exterior, it's an automatic start-up frame! Tool storage, potting shed, kids playhouse, etc, etc.
BEWARE tho, it does say some pallets that come from overseas have nasty chemicals!
One of the other too-kewl items I saw were the Tater Totes.
We just put up a 25' greenhouse & I thought burlap bags or something else like that could be used, I'll place them along the sides & they'll serve to anchor down the greenhouse too, or atleast cover the bottom edge! Burlap or even the landscape fabric can be painted with, let's say sunflowers or daisies!
I love when things serve double-duty!

- Posted by spedigrees z4VT (email@example.com) on Wed, Jun 9, 10 at 18:24
|That pallet garden shed is amazing. This is a unique idea for a very sturdy garden house. Pallets are nearly indestructable and would provide a really solid frame that would last a really long time. Their durability really appeals to me.
The toxins in the wood are a concern, and I think childrens' playhouses would not be a safe use, since kids are more susceptible to carcinogens than adults.
Another problem might be attaching siding, although clearly it can be done. I once brought home a couple broken pallets from the mill where I used to work and built a hamster cage with the free scrap wood. However it was a task from hell. Even drilling starter holes it was nearly impossible to drive nails or screws into this wood. The cage is indestructable, but what a task it was to build! I went into work that night and related the troubles I had with the project to a couple co-workers and one of them said "we could have told you that." I asked "well then WHY didn't you!?" and he replied "well you looked like you had a plan." lol
Anyways I've worried since about the possible toxins in that cage, even after coating it with a non-toxic paint. It was in an era before imports from China, so it probably was not as tainted as the pallets one would get today. One of my hamsters and two rats did die from tumors, but it was after LONG lifetimes of making the cage their home, so perhaps their cancer was a result of extreme old age only. No way to know. In any case I built a new, larger dwelling for my small pets, this time of *untreated* lumber, and put the pallet wood cage in storage. Not only was the new cage a snap to build compared to the pallet wood cage, but I no longer worry about my little pets.
A pallet garden house or storage bin has real appeal though. It would probably hold up for years even set directly on the ground. I would have never thought of this.

Commerce Bank Introduces Chip-Enabled Visa® Signature Credit Cards
Commerce Bank is offering Visa ® Signature Credit Card holders more convenience and safety when traveling abroad with the addition of the chip-enabled Visa Signature Credit Card to its line of credit card products. The card is embedded with a Europay, MasterCard ® and Visa (EMV ®) microchip that provides customers with greater acceptance at international merchants where chip card terminals have become the standard. The microchip contains encrypted data which is more difficult to counterfeit if the card is lost or stolen, thereby providing enhanced credit card security for those customers traveling abroad.
"We are excited to offer our customers a product that will make international transactions more convenient and secure," said Carl Bradbury, Director of Consumer Card Products. "As the payments industry continues to evolve, Commerce Bank understands the utmost importance of protecting our customers against fraudulent activity. We view the chip-enabled Visa Signature Credit Card as a way for customers to experience greater card acceptance, enhanced security, and overall increased peace of mind while travelling internationally."
The chip-enabled credit card includes elements that offer each transaction an additional layer of security for regular purchases in stores as well as those made at unattended terminals such as automated ticket dispensers commonly found in European train stations. The embedded microchip stores and generates the information required to authenticate, authorize and process transactions. The Commerce Bank chip-enabled Visa Signature card is accepted anywhere Visa ® cards are accepted.

Bafana have qualified for AFCON 2015. How will they fare at the tournament? Have your say on our Forum!
Get Sport24 on your mobile
Johannesburg - Less that 100 000 tickets have been sold for fans in the six African countries competing in the 2010 World Cup finals that kicks off on June 11 at the new Soccer City Stadium.
That was the sobering disclosure from the chief executive officer of the 2010 Local Organising Committee, Danny Jordaan, at a media briefing held at SAFA House, south of Johannesburg on Tuesday.
But what has Jordaan worried is the fact few local fans are buying tickets for Bafana Bafana's Group A matches.
Bafana open the tournament at Soccer City against Mexico on June 11, then play Uruguay at Loftus on June 16 and finish their group programme against 1998 world champions France in Bloemfontein on June 22.
The opening match and ceremony is expected to be sold out, but not by Bafana fans.
The two top teams in the group qualify for the second round.
Said Jordaan: "This will be the first time in World Cup history that the host nation are not topping the ticket sales list.
"Sadly Bafana are not even in the top 10. England at this stage will have more supporters at their country's games than will be at Bafana matches.
"It will be tragic if this trend continues and I appeal to local fans to come out and support their country."
Bafana players and the South African Football Association must shoulder some of the blame for the fans apathy.
Bafana, who in 1996 won the African Nations Cup and were ranked in the top 20 in the world in that year, have slipped to 85th in the world rankings and are the lowest ranked team in the World Cup.
Bafana have won one (against minnows Madagascar) and drawn two of their last 11 matches.
SAFA finally got rid of Brazilian born coach Joel Santana last October after a run of disastrous defeats and re-hired fellow Brazilian Carlos Alberto Parreira, in a bid to stop Bafana's poor run of form under Santana.
But Parreira, who won the 1994 World Cup with Brazil, has been on holiday in his home country since early December and is only expected to arrive in Johannesburg on Wednesday to take charge of a two week camp for local based Bafana players in Durban, starting on Friday.
Parreira has watched few - if any - PSL matches during the hectic three mach per week schedule in December in order for the PSL to complete the Absa Premiership by February 28 to give Parreira more time to work with his players.
Said Jordaan: "We want this World Cup to be an African World Cup and yet so far all the African teams involved are not coming to the party."
Jordaan said he would be going to Angola soon in order to speak with the officials of Ivory Coast, Ghana, Nigeria and Algeria.
All five are competing in the African Nations Cup finals in that country. Of the African teams competitng in the 2010 World Cup only Bafana failed to qualify for the African Nations Cup finals under Santana.
"I will be meeting with top officials from the five African teams that will be competing at the World Cup here in June in a bid to stress the fact they need to boost sales and bring their supporters here
"But the biggest concern at this stage is South African fans are not buying tickets for Bafana matches.
"The sales locally are good for other countries, but not Bafana matches and that is something we have to address urgently."
Of the 3.1 million tickets available, over a million have been sold. The current selling phase ends on January 22 after which the LOC will assess the sales.
Jordaan added he was confident sales will continue to raise worldwide in the next selling phase as the tournament kick-off nears.
"Apart from Africa, we are happy with the global sales and expect this trend to increase in the coming months," Jordaan added.
