Fire Dina Pule now: DA

I can't see a replacement being any better to be honest.

What you talking about, anc has the highest standards in recruitment, you have to be top of your game to be an anc cadre (or even puppet). Just look at old Zuma and malema.... Only the most intelligent, top of their classes! :rolleyes:
 
yes, because that's the only malarkey, tomfoolery and shena****ns going on.
Your point is valid, but don't you think this (...firing her) is, at least, a start?
It will be a statement by the presidency... If you're gonna be corrupt, you're gonna have to be really clever about it... not do it in such an open and traceable manner. And if you do get caught then you're gonna get the boot.
Ok, ok... I already hear you scream "Nkandla", and perhaps we cannot have the pot calling the kettle black, but I'd be ok with a president who comes down hard on (open) corruption, even if he himself is getting his hands greasy.
EDIT:
Wait... lemme clarify that last part: I'm not ok with it, but I'll take it if it's all I can get

Zuma and his inner circle only appoint people they can manipulate. She has been a disaster and now all this other claims against her..............
The ANC will never appoint the right person for the job. Only two criteria - ANC and black no matter how much damage it does.

The ANC are bigots.
 
I'm sorry. In todays world everyone has targets and deadlines in their jobs. If you don't reach them you are either penalized or fired. So just because you work for government it is okay to not reach any of your targets or deadlines. Really...

If Government was a privately run company, they would be bankrupt within the first month.
 
Why the negativity? The honorary minister is going to strategize this year .... and

o yes nothing will come from that either. :twisted:

I have been banging that drum ever since I got a job and underwent a performance evaluation.
If only we lived in a world where governments were run like large corporates (in terms of performance evaluation).
- Targets mapped at the beginning of each period (quarter-, half-, or year- period).
- Evaluations at the end of each period.
- Bonuses and increases dependent on evaluation score.
- Under-performers identified and warned.
- Under-performers receive no bonuses or increases.
- Performance interventions kicked off for under-performers (skills-gap identification and 'upskill plan' mapped and carried out)
- Persistent under-performers fired or demoted
- Performance excellence, on the other hand, gets rewarded with salary hikes and/or promotion

Alas, it's all a pipe dream that will never come to fruition, because politics is, well, politics.
...all bullsh**t , no substance.

Meritocracy, anyone?
 
The last time I checked this country was a democracy.

I vote, YES, remove Dina Pule as communications minister and revoke her to be established in any minister position and tenders selection.

One step further... all performers should have a development plan linked to their performance plan.
 
praising the "corporate way" is one of the greatest faults of the current way of not doing business. Government tries to emulate corporate thinking very often and all it does is inherit large corporate stupidity.

Countless large companies have played screwball with their shareholders - and the public - demanded bailouts and sought special concessions. SAA is a company, General Motors is a company, the entire banking industry that took performance bonuses for performing the act of destroying the sector came from companies. On the other hand Mauritius Government is not a company and nor is Botswana's government.
