World Cup - Do Not Lose Perspective2010/06/16 If I were to say that I am as excited about the World Cup as the next person, I would be untruthful. I am not an excitable person by nature and I try to keep perspective. |
Eskom Strike2010/06/30 As I write, the nation is not quite sure whether Eskom workers will go on strike or not. They are appealing to government, apparently, to intervene on their behalf. |
Strike Action2010/08/25 Like many South Africans, I am outraged by the behaviour of striking union members. I understand that demonstrations and the like that are associated with strikes have the potential to degenerate into violence and vandalism, but in this instance the incitement for workers to intimidate has been overtly expressed by union leaders. |
Service Delivery2010/08/26 We have many crises of identity in South Africa, it seems to me. Sometimes the government is the ruling party, and sometimes, as was said by an ANC leader recently, the ANC does not interfere in the running of the government. |
Middle Class2010/09/02 There is nothing wrong with middle class aspiration. In fact, the growth of a middle class is one of the most important indicators of a growing economy. |
Teachers Strike2010/09/09 One wonders whether there has ever been a worse year for children in school. |
Public Service Strike2010/09/14 During the last month there have been many acts of intimidation and thoughtless disruptions to ordinary people caused by strikers. |
Enforcement2010/10/13 I have been fascinated by two recent public debates in particular. The reason is that the discussion seems to go round and round the point with very little recognition of the fact that there are already measures in place which should render these debates superfluous. |
Economic Growth & Unemployment2011/08/31 International reports show that South Africa is falling behind in global competitiveness, we are experiencing weak economic growth and our unemployment rate is sky-rocketing. |
