  • 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.

  • Mcebisi Jonas Tells of Guptas Boasting of Their Control of Hawks, NPA, and NIA
    24 August 2018 Zondo Commission: Mcebisi Jonas tells of Guptas boasting of their control of Hawks, NPA, and NIA Former deputy finance minister Mcebisi Jonas revealed on Friday that one of the Gupta brothers, whom he believes to be Ajay Gupta, threatened his life should he ever tell anyone about a meeting held between them at the Gupta home in Johannesburg in October 2015. Also present at the meeting were Zuma’s son Duduzane as well as former defence advisor Fana Hlongwane. Jonas told the commission of inquiry into state capture, sitting in Johannesburg, that Gupta appeared emotional when it became clear that Jonas was not in favour of Gupta’s previously reported offer for the position of finance minister, held at the time by Nhlanhla Nene. “He (Gupta) had come into the room and immediately told me that they had information on me and the ‘old man’ had suggested that they talk to me,” said Jonas, reading from the sworn statement he made to the commission. By ‘old man’, he said, Gupta had been referring to former president Jacob Zuma. According to Jonas, he had been driven to an undisclosed meeting venue by Duduzane, whom he had met earlier at the Hyatt hotel in Rosebank. Duduzane appeared nervous when they met at the Hyatt, and told Jonas that he would prefer to move to a more private place. Jonas told the commission he was unaware of what the meeting agenda was or that they would joined by others. He had previously been invited by Duduzane to the South African of the Year Awards, but had declined, and later agreed to meeting at a later stage.

  • President Ramaphosa's Scorecard - Again
    PRESIDENT RAMAPHOSA'S SCORECARD - AGAIN ... By Theuns Eloff: Chairman, FW de Klerk Foundation Board of Advisers There are few issues that are discussed as often as the success (or not) of President Cyril Ramaphosa - even during Rugby World Cup time. Everyone (except the Zuptas and EFF) wants him to succeed and believes that he will succeed. But doubts erode this trust every time something negative happens in the country: whether it’s yet another SOE demanding a lifeline, or the case of a student raped and murdered by a public servant. And the recurring refrain is that if Cyril does not succeed soon, there will be no economy or country left to save. William Saunderson-Meyer recently posed the question: can he be referred to as Cyril the Tiger, or is he merely Puss in Boots? What is our President's scorecard five months after he led the ANC to victory at the polls and was subsequently named President of the country for five years ? On the positive side, there are several signs, many of which have been lost in the hullabaloo of other negative events. The appointment of an Economic Advisory Board with several international economists and experts on board, is a plus. The distance some of them have from South Africa and the prevailing ideologies could mean that they will come up with fresh and original plans. The partial acceptance of Tito Mboweni's economic turnaround plan by the ANC's NEC is a second positive economic sign. Purists have already complained that this is not enough, but it is far better than the hysteria that broke out at the launch, within the ANC and their alliance partners.

  • The Zuma Moment: Between Tender-Based Capitalists and Radical Economic
    The Zuma Moment: Between Tender-based Capitalists and Radical Economic Transformation Ashwin Desai1 Department of Sociology, University of Johannesburg, Kingsway Campus, Auckland Park, 2006, Johannesburg. The Jacob Zuma Presidency (2009-2017) was dogged by persistent allegations of corruption and the looting of State Owned Enterprises (SOE’s) by those allied to him. It led to allegations of state capture that placed the Gupta family at the centre of this project. These allegations have been highly contested, with Zuma supporters arguing that he has come under attack because of his support for the BRICS alliance (Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa), which they hold challenges Western imperial interests. Alongside this are those aligned to the Gupta family, arguing that the real culprits of state capture, both historically and in contemporary South Africa, is White Monopoly Capital (WMC), through its ability to determine macro-economic policy. At the heart of this contest is what has come to be known as tender-based capitalists who sought to use access to SOE’s for the accumulation of capital. This process has been defended on the basis that it has the potential to lead a radical economic transformation (RET) that that can challenge the power of WMC. Others have held that this argument is a mere fig leaf for the looting of state coffers, eroding its capacity for deeper developmental initiatives and fostering a parasitic class. This article that focusses on this debate that entered the heart of the African National Congress (ANC) and threatened to tear it apart takes the form of a conjunctural analysis; conjuncture defined as an amalgam ‘of circumstances, a convergence of events, an intersection of contingencies and necessities, a complex, overdetermined state of affairs-usually 1 E-mail: [email protected] producing a crisis, leading to breaking point, driving to historic crossroads’ (Mowitt, 2015: 125).

  • Zuma's Agenda-Driven Cabinet Reshuffles
    19 February 2019 Zondo Commission – Zuma’s agenda-driven cabinet reshuffles created havoc in financial markets It takes a person with no appreciation for the impact that government’s social spending programmes have on the ordinary citizen to make a comment like “if the rand falls, we will just pick it up.” This is the view of National Treasury’s chief director of macro-economic policy, Catherine MacLeod, who testified at the commission of inquiry into state capture on Tuesday. MacLeod was responding to a question by evidence leader Phillip Mokoena SC, who asked for her comment on the remark, attributed to environmental affairs minister Nomvula Mokonyane. The minister uttered the words at an ANC rally in April 2017, in defence of a surprise cabinet reshuffle by former president Jacob Zuma the month before. Two casualties of the reshuffle were finance minister Pravin Gordhan and his deputy Mcebisi Jonas, based on an intelligence report that found that they were undermining the leadership of the country in the way they ran Treasury. The pair, together with then director-general Lungisa Fuzile, had set out on a tour of several countries to meet with potential investors and rating agencies, a task they would commonly embark on once or twice a year, according to Fuzile. “Financial asset prices may recover eventually,” MacLeod explained, “but the thing is, between the time that they have fallen and when they finally recover, government has to go out into the market and convince people to lend us money, and during that period of time we have to pay more in order to convince them to lend money to us.” This is so that we can continue to fund our social spending programmes, she said.
