South Africa headed for 1/9 in development goals plan

South Africa is set to miss all but one of the 2030 development targets its National Planning Commission set just over a decade ago.

Of nine targets set in the National Development Plan, ranging from employment to investment, five measures have deteriorated from their baseline, one is unchanged and three have improved, the commission said in a 10-year review on the progress of the plan.

Going to have to rename a lot more roads before this election.
 
That they even achieved 1 goal surprises me. Boost in the labor force participation is probably due to some statistical gymnastics and bloated public sector workforce so will take that with a pinch of salt anyway
 
Quick we need a commission to investigate who slipped up with that 1, that was not part of the plan
