Announcement of new cabinet

Nope....

I spose in my case, its meaningless because they're all useless anyway.
 
It's on the Radio now. RSG in my case. I dunno who the minister of Telecommunications is ... never heard that name in my life or I just misheard it. Well, never heard any of those names in my life in any case. :o

Heck this dude is t a l k i n g s o s l o w l y...
 
Workaholic technocrats in government will do much good for this country.

A workaholic cabinet is what we need.
 
Siphwe Nyanda is the new comm minister. No idea who he is though. Hogan is taking Alec's old job as enterprise minister
 
The department of housing will be called department of human settlement. The following appointments were announced:

I like that... sounds like they're preparing to change the focus of the department if you ask me...
 
President Zuma announced several changes to current government departments, the creation of new structures within the presidency.

A national planning commission (NPC) will be set up, which will be based in the presidency, the NPC will be responsible for strategic planning to which all spheres of government will adhere.

There will also be a monitoring and evaluation and administration department in the presidency.

The department of mineral and energy will be split into two departments, as will be the department of education.

The department of housing will be called department of human settlement. The following appointments were announced:
Minister of defence: Lililwe Sisulu

Minister of finance: Pravin Gordon

Deputy president: Kgalema Motlanthe

Minister of higher education and training - Blade Nzimande

Minister of home affairs - Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma

Minister of human settlement - Tokyo Sexwale

More details to follow.

Tokyo Sexwale can probably afford to buy a few 1000 houses for people.
 
and Blade in charge of Higher education and training?... that basically means our varsities are going to be more fscked than they currently are already.

He's writtin a few books on violence in education according to that who's who site.
Maybe he'll bring back Jacks.
 
Now i wish to get a list of the DG, not sure if they are still appointed by by the President


Minister of defence: Lililwe Sisulu [ Why did they move her from intelligence in the first place ]

Minister of finance: Pravin Gordon [ I think it was a good choice - he did well at SARS ]

Deputy president: Kgalema Motlanthe [ I still need to know what happened to his business interest ]

Minister of higher education and training - Blade Nzimande [ i believe he is a workaholic and taking it from what he has being saying since he became the secretary general of SACP, I think he has an academic doctorate ]

Minister of home affairs - Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma [ I think she will make some effective changes and with her experience in gauvament things can only get better if they dont change the DG]

Minister of human settlement - Tokyo Sexwale [I just wonder who will win those tenders to build houses ]
 
See my replies in red.

Red more about Kgalema and the land Bank loan with pamodzi

With regards to Blade - I still think he will make a difference on Higher education, as secretary general of SACP he didn't report to anyone.

Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma as minister of health she sucked including the Sarafina fiasco, but she made head ways as minister of foreign affairs.
