Can the sinking ship be saved? – Denel’s deterioration is attributed to political appointments made where incompetent people are placed in key positions who have no knowledge of the arms industry, now the state entity has appointment a new Chief Executive Officer

Posted on 12/21/2018 Leave a comment

The Cabinet approved Daniel du Toit’s appointment as Chief Executive Officer at Denel. He will immediately pay attention to superficial contracts entered into during the state hijacking period. Cost cuts will also be one of its priorities.

The arms manufacturer has deteriorated dramatically over recent years due to the political appointments made in top management who lack knowledge of the industry.

The ANC government had to save the industry of total collapse numerous time with financial support, and many contracts entered into resulted in enormous loses.

Posted on 12/20/2018 Leave a comment

The Johannesburg Department of Human Settlements has announced that HOP houses will be taken back by foreigners in Alexandri.

Real estate sales should also not be allowed to foreigners who do not have citizenship in South Africa.

R1.3m payout after SA oranges arrived square in Italy – one can only imagine WHO packed it?

Posted on 12/20/2018 Leave a comment

One of the largest players in the Italian citrus trading market ordered and bought round oranges from a Limpopo orange company but square oranges instead arrived in Sicily, Italy.

This is how a judge described the damages claim which came before him in the Gauteng High Court, Pretoria.

The Italian company Oranfrizer instituted a claim in Euro against Fruitone Ltd, a farming operation in Zebediela, Limpopo. In rands the claim amounts to about R1.3 million.

The problem was that the immaculate round, orange fruit, no longer appeared round when the shipments landed in Sicily, as it was nearly all squashed and flat.

This was apparently due to how the Limpopo company packed the fruit prior to shipping.

Judge Norman Davis remarked that what was actually to be a simple case, resulted in five years of litigation between the parties and a host of experts on the subject of packing and quality control, which were called to testify.

The Public Prosecutor established that Dondo Mogojane failed to report that he had a criminal record in his application for Director-General.

He was found guilty of a Violation of Road Traffic in 2011 and now Cyril Ramaphosa has been given 30 days to act against Mogojane.

The possibility that the Director-General has lost his position is doubtful, but the power play behind the scenes is unpredictable.

IMF criticizes South African government’s tertiary education plan – Government should rather concentrate on free education with a good standard

Posted on 12/19/2018 Leave a comment

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) criticized South Africa and the government for its intended free education at tertiary institutions. The spokesman said the country should rather concentrate on free education with a good standard in primary and secondary schools so that they can achieve good results with post school studies.

South Africa should do a lot more to provide better primary and secondary school education, which requires much more money and deserves the first attention.

The main issue is totally ignored if post school education is offered free of charge while the foundation of the pupils is not good, the spokesman said.

Educators say government’s poor primary and secondary education policies, together with a serious lack of properly trained teachers are among the main reasons why so many students fail to complete their field of study.

New South Africa and the Rainbow Nation a quarter of a century later a total failure: Tell us why?

Posted on 12/19/2018 Leave a comment

White South Africans are often accused that their “sense of superiority”, their “white privilege” is the reason why the multicultural New South Africa and the Rainbow Nation is a failure. It is apparently the unwillingness of the white man to share property and wealth that is the cause of all the misery.

Now, if we look at the recent history of South Africa, we will discover that power was not won by struggle as the ANC and the rest of black South Africa claims.

Political analysts and experts such as the late Dr F van Zyl Slabbert, are unanimous in this:

The apartheid government could easily have hung on to power for at least another 15 years. The hand over was done voluntarily through a majority “Yes” vote to a referendum by white South Africans in 1992.

And with power, quite a number of other things were wrapped up in the parcel.

25 years later we need to assess what was done with that and with this assessment comes t

Only in South Africa where people still believe in mythical superstitions – the latest one is that a water snake is the cause of a storm that has hit Sun City recently, and where thousands of rands of damages was caused

Posted on 12/19/2018 Leave a comment

So apparently we are right back in the dark ages. A traditional “philosopher” Grace Masuku said in a statement that the storm at Sun City was caused by the mythical “water snake”.

Sun City is apparently built in an area where the ancestors live and communicate with the waters – the water hose is apparently the guardian of the area and is now angry for the places that were erected.

Millions of Rand’s damage occurred when a heavy hailstorm hit the resort, and workers will apparently recover completely from it.

A volunteer noted humorously that the so-called water snake waited a few decades before it became angry with the buildings at Sun City.
