Peter was a proper hard arse by most accounts but, as I remember it, he took a lot of shares as part of the bonus that turned out to be bogus so got screwed himself. Also, as I have it, the collpase hinged around Zim sugar numbers and KZN property deals that fell through / turned out to be bogus.
 
Good riddance to bad rubbish

The world would be a much better place if sugar was banned outright
 
Explains why the Hullets bag of sugar I bought accidentally is just one big lump.

Clearly moisture got in there somewhere along the line.

Is the 10% a residual that is kept back till the cane yield of each delivery is determined?

"Sugarcane growers on KZN's north coast have described the looming liquidation as their worst nightmare.
Farmers are still owed about 10% of their seasonal income and fear they may never receive it if the liquidation process goes ahead."

Nkosazana would be proud. Every nanny state approves of what you just said.

...and the irony here, is Im not even being sarcastic. They honestly would approve. I love my sugar, but I know the health consequences of it.

But I prefer the freedom of choice side of this debate. Its their bodies, they can do what they want to them. Nkosazana would not approve of my opinion.

No one is safe until we are all safe!

Remember that line you used to parrot like a good little boy?

Now stop being selfish and depriving someone of a hospital bed. @Nerfherder's dad perhaps

The line is more "no one is free until we are all free". Safety is optional in life.

No, I grew up in a school system developed by apartheid. They didnt train us to think like that. Thats something you figure out for yourself. I grew up with nationalists. We sang sons about flags and stuff.
