Private and public sectors need to hatch a new plan.

[R13...]

[R13...]

Some sobering thoughts on the state of South Africa by William Gumede. Especially relevant given the current spate of load shedding and other issues we face as a country.

Some amusing stuff there with the NDP still targeting 14% unemployment by next year. When even the lies already sold no longer get updated then you know its over.

Hulle kan gaan k*k in die Kaap vir al wat ek omgee. Die regering maak dit haas ontmoontlik vir enige private entiteit om sake te doen in die land. Al die k*k is op die regering en hulle moet dit alleen uitsorteer.

14% employment sounds about right though. Oh wait, unemployment...

Discontinue AA, EE, BEE and any BEE incarnations, use an iron hand and fist to weed out corruption and cadres, appoint the right people, and you'll see the economy will recover.

But it will never be done, because oinkers and oinkage be too imporkant.

did they implement ndp yet? why I didn't know that? and then you blame the ndp is not working?

oh wait... they assume that every "talk" is meaningful to the real economy and never need to implement it. that is why the ndp is not working. I see.

 

[Mystic Twilight]

You can have any new plan, as long as the anc cadres get the relevant kickbacks and tenders.
