    Mantashe blasts Shell and BP for shutting down Sapref

    Right, and where will the power come from. as our network is already constrained, overloaded and just generally in a state of ruin. Nice excuse for not getting to work - sorry, was unable to charge my car because of load-shedding☺

    Mantashe blasts Shell and BP for shutting down Sapref

    The primary objective of any company is to report positive earnings and a viable future. ANC cannot provide either. There is little to zero security, massive Government interference in how a Company is allowed to be structured (BEE or whatever you may call it) The supply chain is unreliable...

    Eskom engineer exodus

    Truth is that there are very few engineers that make the grade. A degree simply does not cut it - the paper is worthless without experience. If all the experienced people / engineers leave, there will be no continuity, and the system will collapse. Its just a matter of time. Then the added...

    Hope they switch off the lights for around 4 hours per day!

    Where do you get your drinking water?

    Tap, but boil it the night before and keep topping up a cooler bottle with it.

    Public amenities in South Africa may be limited to those vaccinated against Covid-19

    Tell you what - let's try amenities for vaccinated people, and separate amenities for un-vaccinated people? Does this rings some bells?? So will the un-vaccinated people pay less taxes, as they are not allowed access to amenities? This is all crap! You can get Covid whether you're vaccinated or...

    Would you support a vaccine passport requirement to buy booze?

    Great idea, lets also demand vaccination certificate to buy food, or get fuel, or use our roads and so on and on..... What *****hole thought up such a stupid idea This is so crazy, that they will probably enforce it, and try to rake in the bucks of printing, issueing, etc What democratic...

    Should businesses be offering discounts to vaccinated people?

    The whole concept sucks! The president promised that nobody will be forced to get the Vax, and that they will not be discriminated against. I am not allowed to get the Vax, so now I get this backlash?? I will no longer spend money at any establishment which is offering such discounts, and I...

    Should businesses fire employees who refuse to vaccinate against Covid?

    My Body, my choice. Having the vaccine will not stop you contracting COVID-19, just the effects will be milder - has this not been made clear enough? So those who have been vaccinated will infect people around them because of their recklessness. Who says there will not be new mutations of the...

    We won't be blackmailed by "greedy" SAA pilots – Government

    I wish the Government has the same attitude towards Eskom workers who are massively over-staffing the Utility and holding the entire country to ransome. I see them blackmailing the Government constantly, threatening strikes and industrial actions.

    Eskom wants to avoid “price shock” through phased tariff hikes – De Ruyter

    It's a never-ending downward spiral. They ask you to use less, then punish you for doing so. Eskom are incapable of keeping the power on even for major consumers and are not interested in getting new paying customers connected. It takes 8-12 months just to get a quote from them for an upgrade...

    Eskom is in a death spiral, according to the IRR

    A case of DeJaVu - seen this crap in most african states north of South Africa, and look where they are today! Lucky if they have power for a few hours a day! Just another attempt by the ANC to take over an efficient and working company, and then raping and plundeing it to the point that it...
