Is that Indian chap correct about the job stats by province?

Is that Indian chap correct about the job stats by province?

Yes, but you need to analyse it further to find the reasons for the changes.

E.g. how of those newly unemployed in the WC were bussed in from the EC?

 

[Sneeky]

Is that Indian chap correct about the job stats by province?

He probably is the way he is looking at them, but remember stats reflect what you want them to reflect, and numbers need to be interrogated, like his comments on job creation stats overall in Q4 2014. Its rubbish, not gainful employment, is typical of that time of year when causal labor is taken on for retail work while others are on leave etc.

Probably due to the high volume of refugees migrating to the promised land is search of a better life

I don't think so. He specifically said job losses by absolute number, not a decrease due to a bigger denominator.

Only if you ignore the massive influx from other crappily run ANC provinces.

In other words we got their unemployed.

And we have to ask why they left their home provinces - it makes no sense for them to come here if it's such a horrible place where there are no jobs.

 

[Sneeky]

Interrogate what is deemed as a job.

If you do that, things don't look peachy anywhere in this country, and Zuma's millions of jobs he had promised have vaporized, and we have infact regressed.

Ah, I thought it was a percentage comparison of unemployment, i.e., year x 10%, year y 15%, and he saw stats as 5% more job losses and not due to other things... like year y had 500k more peoples arrive looking for work etc. Will have to see actual figures and break it down, was just a thought.
