    Private sector has done more for universal broadband access than the government

    Will someone please print a sticker that say " there aint no free lunch" and stick it on the forehead of each stupid politician who thinks money grows on trees. The ANC mantra of free this and free that has been the hook by which they reel in naïve voters who believe the BS they propagate...

    Home Affairs minister says they will soon announce end of South Africa's green ID book

    Like all things Home Affairs lets hope they have the capacity to cope with the mad rush when they discontinue the green ID book. It makes sense to take this step however we have seen things go wrong when the state implements something new i.e. drivers license etc, etc. The government is famous...

    Eskom is proposing new ways for South Africans to pay for electricity

    I am sick to death of GOE's that wont or cannot compete in a free market and want to legislate their income stream and force compliance by law. The Post Office, SABC, Eskom, the proposed NHI are prime examples. Take your grubby paws out of my back pocket and stop pointing a gun at my head to...

    Eskom's major sabotage problem has seemingly vanished

    Come on! Please wake up and smell the coffee for a change. The only reason why the sabotage has abated is because the ANC elite cannot afford to lose the election and a key factor mitigating against their reelection is load shedding. The feeding trough will be open for business as usual if the...

    Bheki Nxumalo's successful Eskom generation turnaround

    Mr. Bheki Nxumalo looks like a nice man and i am sure he comes with much to offer. Let us however not get ahead of ourselves by claiming success with load shedding at this point in time. The issues at Eskom are significant and complex and I personally dont think one swallow will make a summer in...

    IcasaSePush gives examples of where Starlink has helped people in South Africa

    Starlink is a great service however it is not the only LEO satellite service available in country. I just cannot understand how the government continues to push Starlink aside for political reasons when it is clear for all to see that our economy is in very bad shape, especially in rural areas...

    Post Office aiming for monopoly over e-commerce deliveries in South Africa

    What they want and what the customer wants are two different things. The GPO cannot even deliver a simple letter reliably in a reasonable amount of time nor do they have the infrastructure nor the staff to do so but hey... they want sole right to deliver parcels that are ordered on line. Dream on!

    South Africa wants to confront online retailers allegedly exploiting tariff loopholes

    The Chinese are dumping their goods and it is harmful to the economy that we have left, the little that there is. Dont confront minister, do your job and shut them down or would that not be in the ANCs interest rather than the country's!

    Department of Transport misses another driving licence card deadline

    Just another day in the lives of ordinary South Africans who continue to suffer the absolute mind numbing incompetency of the ANC government. And true to form they will complain, protest, burn, break scream and shout about the situation and STILL vote for these idiots. Idiots!

    Orania building big battery system to become load-shedding free

    Congratulations Orania, this should serve as an example to the rest of the country. Glad that you guys pulled this off and should stand as an example of what happens when the government stays out of every minute detail of the lives of citizens. Mooi man!

    South Africa's new driving licence card printer 30 April deadline approaches

    Just another day in ANC run South Africa. I cannot even call it mediocrity because the word suggest that at least something was produced even if it was sub par. The ANC stumbles from one no show to another amidst much boasting and fanfare proclaiming the opposite.

    Criminals stealing fibre cables and "smoking" them

    For goodness sake lets hope they dont get it in their heads that the cables are nutritious or that it has resale value!!! It is so sad to see that our society has become so feral most of which is self inflicted by corrupt government and politicians. We had it all and threw it away and the poor...
