  • Introduction It Goes Without Saying, Comrades, That Organising Is a Very Crucial Element of the Machinery of the Party- Building Programme
    Introduction It goes without saying, comrades, that organising is a very crucial element of the machinery of the Party- building programme. It is its engine and nuts and bolts. If we have not yet assembled our machine as we would have desired, bear in mind that the National Organising Committee was only formed in late August. Indeed, I am very new in this post, having been appointed convenor of the committee on August 26. Section 1 Party of a new type 1) VANGUARD MASS PARTY The question that confronted the Party immediately after its unbanning was: What kind of Party should we build? The question arose because its unbanning after 40 years underground meant the Party could exist and woik legally in South Africa. What had become clear even as we were still banned and working underground was that the Party continued to enjoy a lot of support from our people. In determining our work within the legal space offered us by the new political conditions in our motherland, we had to take into serious consideration the tremendous mass support accorded us. The decisions taken in the circumstances were: 1. That the Party be transformed to accommodate a large membership. 2. That it would still be possible for the Party, despite the large membership, to retain its vanguardist role. We felt it could be a vanguard party of a new type with all its members being activists. We felt also that this vanguard party of a new type had to be open to public scrutiny. We said the vanguard party had to be open to all questions from the masses in a new culture of open debate and discussion.

  • Gordhan Tells of Government's Push to Secure Nuclear Deal
    19 November 2018 Zondo Commission: Gordhan describes government’s push to secure nuclear deal Public enterprise minister Pravin Gordhan urged South Africans to connect the dots and learn for themselves how state capture happened – keeping the failed Russia nuclear deal, the bombed out Denel Asia venture and the appointment of former Sars commissioner Tom Moyane in mind. He was testifying before the commission of inquiry into state capture on Monday. The concept of state capture, he said, is understood to be the manifestation of a network of systems that usually have a sole or few ultimate beneficiaries, with players who can be categorised to suit the needs at different levels of the project. Gordhan spent most of the morning explaining the dynamics within which he led the national treasury – during two tenures that were interrupted by a stint in the co-operative governance department (Cogta) – and the level at which its systems were compromised. He was first appointed minister of finance shortly after the 2009 national elections, and redeployed to Cogta in 2014, before returning to the finance portfolio. Gordhan then elaborated on three major processes that happened during his first term and beyond, which raised eyebrows for him and his colleagues at Treasury. First up was the infamous nuclear deal with Russia, to which Treasury was opposed in principle, right from the start. In a late 2013 meeting between Gordhan, his then director-general Lungile Fuzile, Senti Thobejane - advisor to then minister of energy Ben Martins - and Zuma, a compromise was struck between the two departments. Fuzile and Thobejane, it was decided, would work on the framework that would structure a procurement process for the consumption of nuclear power for South Africa, no different from any other tender process entered into by government.

Janzen Date approved: May 17, 2017 ii Abstract South Africa’s heralded democratic transition digressed from its 1994 euphoric optimism to a current state of public discontent. This stems from rising unemployment, persistent structural inequality, and a disappointment in the African National Congress-led government’s inability to bring true social and economic transformation to fruition. While some scholars attribute this socioeconomic and political predicament to the country’s former regimes, others draw close correlations between the country’s post-apartheid predicament, ANC leadership, and the country’s official adoption of neoliberal economic policies in 1996. Central to this post-euphoric moment is the country’s Born-Free generation, particularly Black youth, coming of political age in an era of supposed political freedom, social equality, and economic opportunities. But recent student movements evidence young people’s disillusionment with the country’s democratic transition. Such disillusionment is not unfounded, considering the 35% youth unemployment rate and questionable standards in primary education.

  • The New Cabinet
    Response May 30th 2019 The New Cabinet President Cyril Ramaphosa’s cabinet contains quite a number of bold and unexpected appointments, and he has certainly shifted the balance in favour of female and younger politicians. At the same time, a large number of mediocre ministers have survived, or been moved sideways, while some of the most experienced ones have been discarded. It is significant that the head of the ANC Women’s League, Bathabile Dlamini, has been left out – the fact that her powerful position within the party was not enough to keep her in cabinet may be indicative of the President’s growing strength. She joins another Zuma loyalist, Nomvula Mokonyane, on the sidelines, but other strong Zuma supporters have survived. Lindiwe Zulu, for example, achieved nothing of note in five years as Minister of Small Business Development, but has now been given the crucial portfolio of social development; and Nathi Mthethwa has been given sports in addition to arts and culture. The inclusion of Patricia de Lille was unforeseen, and it will be fascinating to see how, as one of the more outspokenly critical opposition figures, she works within the framework of shared cabinet responsibility. Ms de Lille has shown herself willing to change parties on a regular basis and this appointment may presage her absorbtion into the ANC. On the other hand, it may also signal an intention to experiment with a more inclusive model of government, reminiscent of the ‘government of national unity’ that Nelson Mandela favoured. During her time as Mayor of Cape Town Ms de Lille emphasised issues of spatial planning and land-use, and this may have prompted Mr Ramaphosa to entrust her with management of the Department of Public Works’ massive land and property holdings.

  • Friday@Noon Futures Research
    Institute for Friday@Noon Futures Research Signals from this week’s news Instituut vir Editor: Dr Morne Mostert Toekomsnavorsing Issue 1061 1 Apr 2016 In a unanimous judgement on Thursday regarding the Nkandla upgrades to President Zuma’s private home, the Constitutional Court declared the decisions of the public protector binding. Chief Justice Mogoeng or- dered that the resolution of the National Assembly absolving Mr Zuma of repaying any of the money spent at Nkandla was unlawful. The National Treasury will determine the costs Mr Zuma should repay within 45 days of the court signing off the Treasury report. The DA initiated processes to impeach Mr Zuma while the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) called for the dissolution of Parliament and an early general election. Finance Minister Pravin Gordhan defended the legality of the so-called rogue unit at SARS as he filed re- sponses to some of the 27 questions posed by the Directorate for Priority Crime Investigation, the Hawks. Mr Gordhan said the approach taken by the Hawks in their probe and the timing of their questions on the eve of last month’s budget speech were unlawful. The ANC has denied that it agreed to the DA motion to request Parliament to establish an ad hoc committee to investigate alleged state influence by the Gupta family. The ruling party said its chief whip, Jackson Mthem- bu, stated that Parliament as a forum for public debates should never quash multiparty debates. The ANC noted that Mr Maimane’s proposed motion had been rejected and that the allegations relating to the so-called state capture were before state institutions‚ such as the Hawks and the public protector‚ following requests for investigations by certain organisations and individuals.

  • 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.
