Kota Bharu/Malaysia, Vientiane/Laos and Savannakhet/Laos should be OK, provided your paperwork is in order and you do not have that particular comment on previous Tourist Visa from Pretoria.

There are more S/A people member here, it has been discussed many times but as far as I just looked back: Kota Bharu in Malaysia and Vientiane in Laos (if there is no Thai writing on your Tourist Visa from Pretoria) should be no problem, But give it some time to get more replies of your country man with experience.
