No part of this publication may be reprinted or reproduced or utilised in any form or by any electronic, mechanical or other means, including photocopying or recording, or in any information storage or retrieval system without permission in writing from the publisher. Introduction The 2018 State of the Province Address (SOPA) by Eastern Cape Premier, Phumulo Masualle, identified economic growth, job creation, road infrastructure, education and health, as key focus areas. Premier Masualle said the province would undertake various initiatives aimed at radical socio-economic transformation through “redistributive economic development aimed at reducing income inequality”. Prefaced by a summary of this year’s State of the Nation Address, this pamphlet sets out, in brief, the key points of the 2018 SOPA. We trust that this publication will prove useful to development practitioners and activists in the eastern Cape in striving for the rapid transformation of the province.
