  • PRESIDENT RAMAPHOSA SE TELKAART - NOGMAALS… Theuns Eloff Is Voorsitter Van Die Adviesraad Van Die FW De Klerk Stigting
    PRESIDENT RAMAPHOSA SE TELKAART - NOGMAALS… Theuns Eloff is voorsitter van die Adviesraad van die FW de Klerk Stigting Daar is min kwessies wat so gereeld in gesprekke ter sprake kom as die sukses (al dan nie) van President Cyril Ramaphosa - selfs in hierdie tyd van die Wêreldrugbybeker. Almal (behalwe die Zuptas en die EFF) wil hê dat hy slaag en glo dat hy wil slaag. Maar twyfel vreet aan hierdie vertroue elke keer as daar iets negatief in die land gebeur: vanaf nòg ‘n staatsonderneming wat ‘n reddingsboei wil hê, tot ‘n geval van die verkragting van en moord op ‘n student deur ‘n staatsdienswerker. En die terugkerende refrein is dat as Cyril nie gou slaag nie, sal daar nie ‘n ekonomie en ‘n land oor wees nie. William Saunderson-Meyer het onlangs selfs in ‘n artikel die vraag gevra of Cyril die Tier genoem gaan word of bloot die Gestewelde Kat(jie)? Hoe lyk ons President se prestasietelkaart vyf maande nadat hy die ANC tot ‘n oorwinning by die stembus aangevoer het en daarna vir vyf jaar as President van die land aangewys is? Aan die positiewe kant is daar verskeie sake, waarvan baie in die geraas van ander negatiewe gebeure vergete geraak het. Die aanstelling van ‘n Ekonomiese Adviesraad met verskeie internasionale ekonome en kundiges aan boord, is ‘n positiewe teken. Die afstand wat sommige van hulle van Suid-Afrika en die heersende ideologieë het, kan beteken dat hulle met vars en oorspronklike planne na vore kan kom. Die gedeeltelike aanvaarding van Tito Mboweni se ekonomiese regrukplan deur die ANC se NUK is ‘n tweede positiewe ekonomiese teken.

  • Is Thandi Modise Guilty of “Neglect” Or “Negligence”?
    Is Thandi Modise guilty of “neglect” or “negligence”? Thandi Modise is facing charges for Animal Cruelty that date back to 2014. It didn’t stop her from keeping her previous post in the National Council of Provinces, and she was then promoted after the last elections to be Speaker of the National Assembly. Ramaphosa has played along with some senior officials who have served their country with distinction. Pravin Gordhan comes to mind, under a cloud created by the Public Protector. Modise has been charged by the National Society for the Prevention of Animals (NSPCA). But the fact that the case against her is being litigated by Gerry Nel of Afriforum says a lot. When a sheep was slaughtered last year on a Capetown beach to cleanse it from the sins of racism, there was this same clash of cultures. Some citizens wanted to appease their ancestral spirits by slaughtering a sheep. While others objected to this act as cruelty to animals and lack of hygiene in a public space. Thandi Modise is in a tight spot, and her attorneys asked for a remand in June to have more time to prepare her defence. The case will now be heard in late October. There is no question that animals suffered and died on an unprecedented scale. But sad as that is, and it is very sad, the question of Thandi Modise’s own culpability is a thorny one. And it smacks of a revenging offensive by her white neighbours. Afriforum’s involvement suggests that this is some kind of publicity stunt, related to the question of land redistribution to blacks.

  • Zuma Supporters Demand Equal Treatment for All Witnesses
    19 July 2019 Zondo Commission – Zuma supporters in fine form, demand equal treatment for all witnesses After a meeting between Deputy Chief Justice Raymond Zondo, the commission’s counsel and Zuma’s counsel in the chairperson’s chambers, all parties reached common ground for Zuma to continue giving evidence before the commission. This was after he had earlier said, through his lawyers, that he was withdrawing. Zuma’s counsel cited unfair treatment by the commission towards their client, and the decision to withdraw was met by jubilant sounds from the former president’s supporters as they rose in song. The section of Zuma’s supporters included former SABC COO Hlaudi Motsoeneng, former North West premier and ANC provincial secretary Supra Mahumapelo, former communications minister Faith Muthambi, and former minister of finance Des van Rooyen. The singing from Zuma’s supporters continued outside the venue with struggle songs and lyrics such as “uPravin bekengekho emzabalazweni, uRamaphosa bekengekho emzabalazweni”, meaning “Pravin was not part of the struggle; Ramaphosa too was not part of the struggle”. Pravin Gordhan, who is now minister of public enterprises, came before the commission to testify about how he and others faced death threats during his tenure as finance minister. President Cyril Ramaphosa succeeded Jacob Zuma after the latter resigned in February 2018 under immense pressure from the public and from within the ANC. Supporters, while singing outside the venue, expressed their support for the father of “radical economic transformation”. Echoing Zuma’s counsel, they claimed he is being treated unfairly by the commission. Different structures within the ANC came out to support Zuma and assembled at the nearby Pieter Roos Park as they waited for Zuma to address them after the adjournment of the proceedings.

The survey forms part of an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) prospecting application for Moloi Granite (Pty) Ltd and is made in terms of the National Environmental Management Act (Act 107 of 1998). During the survey a Late Iron Age stone-walled settlement (Site 1) with two associated cattle outposts (Sites 2 and 3) were recorded. The sites probably functioned as part of network of settlement during a period of upheaval known as the Difaqane. Sites associated with this period date to the early AD 1830s and were probably associated with the Bakwena ba Mogopa.

  • Week 9: Monday February 24 – Sunday, 1 March 2020 Expropriation
    Week 9: Monday February 24 – Sunday, 1 March 2020 Expropriation In Week 8 US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo was reported as stating that moves to amend the constitution and expropriate land without compensation would be disastrous for South Africa’s economy and people. However, a more measured view has since been put forward by US Ambassador Designate to South Africa Lana Marks, who stated that she was “100% satisfied in the way in which President Ramaphosa is handling everything – in a totally open and transparent manner”. (Mail and Guardian 26 February 2020) Marks said she was not consulted by the US State Department ahead of Pompeo’s remarks the previous week. The ambassador is reported to have gone further to state that she had been informed that “there would be no confiscation of any private land whatsoever”. In response Presidential spokesperson Khusela Diko made it clear that the government intended to accelerate land reform, but stated that this would be done within the strict confines of South African law. While Ambassador Marks has stated her ambition to elevate South Africa into a top 20 trading partner with the US (it is currently 39th), Anthea Jeffery continues to beat the Zimbabwean drum (BizNews 27 February 2020) citing De Soto advocate Craig Richardson that the root cause of Zimbabwe’s economic decline was “the expropriation of land without compensation (which) destroyed property rights – the foundation of the economy – and led to a chain reaction…” According to Jeffrey, South Africa “still remains far away from this haunting tale of woe” but she cautions that “there is no room for complacency”.
