    Bad news for Mr Price, Foschini, and Truworths: Shein and Temu are here to stay

    Pretty sure most of their stock is bought from the same places Shein and Temu buy from, they just put a much bigger mark up on while underpaying their staff.

    How much the average government employee is paid in South Africa

    United States warns of new sanctions against South Africa

    Not talking Tariffs, talking current US sanctions against the ANC which are specifically against specific classes of people. Reality is also that ANC policy has done more damage to the country than US tariffs have anyway.

    yeah, the DA hasn't been very bright of late and may very well find themselves on their own in the near future, the coming elections are going to be very informative as to what the people of the WC really think.
