The lols never stop when it comes to government...

A senior official of the Department of Transport alleged that it spent up to R15 million over several years on livestreaming services, usually for audiences of around 100 people on YouTube.

Did they take out subs for peeps or where they streaming some of their kak on YT?

They paid some media company to organise the camera setup to be able to facilitate the streaming.
Each time the contract was made just below R1 bar so as to not trigger needing to send it out for tender.

At least it was not xHamster. The "proper" one, not Elon's one.

I mean once you factor in the wardrobe, expensive cars, filming gear, food, entertainment and all of that with kick-backs so marked up by 90000% I guess it starts to make sense.

I don't know why the government can't use the SABC to conduct such services. Not even tender (or supplier in these terms) related; I know what some agencies charge.

Accordingly, we request the public and Mr Hasane to give the department time to investigate

Sure, how about till the end of the weekend, no reason to need longer than that.

They will always find a way to steal.

ALWAYS!!!

Hope the whistleblower has a bodyguard...

Totally off the rails.

Typical, the minister can't even run her own department full of thieves but she wants to charge the public more for Raf and more!!!

 

[Bad Ballie]

Intentionally manipulating the process to avoid triggering oversight is in and of itself a crime and shows intent, and that active measures to avoid detection were taken.

How do you "livestreaming services"?

 

[Jet-Fighter7700]

How do you "livestreaming services"?

same way you do Lighting and maintenance and janitorial services.
mark everything up 90000% just enough to pay kickbacks and buy the stuff from makro.

I mean these are the same people that sold eskom 1 mops for 200K

 

[Jet-Fighter7700]

Totally off the rails.

people beg for this, so they exploit every cent of it,
up until an arab spring style revolution will have heads literally rolling in the streets.
