It is estimated that South African farmers will export a whopping R 270 000 000 000 worth of farm produce in 2025 bringing much needed foreign currency reserves into our economy. Let's give our hard-working farmers a round of applause and wish them a Merry Christmas. Bravo

⚖️ Victory for the DA! We note the scathing judgment of the Western Cape High Court in the appeal of John Hlophe and the MK Party against the decision taken in September granting an interdict against the participation of Hlophe in the JSC deliberations. https://t.co/Y5zRebX9RP

It also sharply draws into focus the fact that John Hlophe is not only not fit and proper to serve on the Judicial Service Commission, but is also unfit to serve in Parliament.

Whatever you might think of the DA's "flag burning" election ad, the SABC's decision to ban it from its television channels is outrageous and a MASSIVE own goal by the public broadcaster!

Ramaphosa won't attend a single presidential debate ahead of the election. Yes, that's how little he thinks of the voters. Under Zuma it was the same thing. The ANC has no respect for you all and you know it. Punish them at the polls so they take you seriously!

@SongezoZibi Maybe im uninformed, but Ive never heard of sex or cash for jobs in large JSE listed companies. Isnt this only an occurance in public sector such as hospitals, schools and government departments?

Can we nip in the bud the convention of starting business emails and messages with the infuriating and insultingly formulaic "I hope you're well"? Or is it already too late?

You have had 30 years to turn the legacy of Apartheid around. You had Trillions of Rands, you were the darling of the Western world. And you managed to fail on every SINGLE metric and goal. Yet you still blame Apartheid 30 years later because you are completely incompetent.

President Cyril Ramaphosa said the economy is where it is today because the Apartheid government crippled it. https://t.co/QD9KeKrG7q

My gut-feel is that, one way or another, Ramaphosa will not see out 2024 as President.

Dr Mathebula makes a crucial point: the international protocol is that honourary doctorate recipients cannot ethically use the Dr title. Only the institution that has awarded you that honour (note: honour, not qualification) is allowed to address you as Dr. I think the South

Thirty years after that massacre, Rwanda can proudly boast that it has recorded an average GDP growth of about 8% per year. SA will be lucky if it reaches 1% growth, writes @justicemalala https://t.co/cA47O42mse

World Bank study shows 10% of South Africa's gross domestic product is lost because of runaway crime. Crime costs SA R640bn every year. 76 people murdered in SA each day. Last year Transport Minister Sindisiwe Chikunga was hijacked with her bodyguards. https://t.co/4eAr1DsTrx

Rampant crime in South Africa is costing the country at least 10% of its gross domestic product annually and exacerbating already stark income inequality, a World Bank study found.

My car broke down on Glenhove Road today and two separate pedestrian passersby stopped to ask if I was OK, and two security guards stopped in case I needed a hand to change a tyre. And that's when my faith in South Africans is validated.
