Taxpayers will now have to bailout the Ramaphosa regime after Moody lost patience with SA’s poor economic situation and proposes a tax increase

Posted on Leave a comment

The poor economic conditions, unemployment, little foreign interest, the land grab program, Eskom and other entities’ financial inability are all reasons why the country is in such a mess.

Moody’s has pointed out to the ANC-regime that it will have to raise taxes to fix the mess at Eskom, which is the first step to a series of tax hikes.

With the SABC, Denel, SAL, Eskom, and several other entities failing to be a profitable industry as it was years ago, the regime is pushing to raise taxes.

The poor decision to launch a National Health Plan while the country is in junk status is considered to be one of the stupidest decisions the Ramaphosa regime has yet made, which will also lead to astronomical increases in taxes.

Moving out of professional corps such as doctors, nursing staff, lawyers and others is the strongest indication that the country is heading for an enormous crisis that cannot be reversed.

Ramaphosa lets the cat out of the bag: The bad news: ‘Our money’s up’

Posted on Leave a comment

Ramaphosa acknowledged in parliament on Thursday that South Africa’s financial resources were depleted while the country’s development needs were enormous. He did not say straightforwardly whether he supported “prescribed assets”, he said later, the pension fund industry and other stakeholders needed to talk about using pension fund assets to support the country financially. The country’s money is running out and South Africans’ pension fund assets are becoming an increasingly likely target for the government to pull the wagon through, it became clear on Thursday.

According to Ramaphosa, pension fund assets in other countries are used to invest in the development of the country and pension funds achieve good returns from infrastructure projects in particular. He says the trade union Cosatu supports its view that workers in SA’s pension money are used this way. According to Ramaphosa, this is considered positive by the

Cyril Ramaphosa expected to sign controversial Aarto Bill (Administrative Adjudication of Road Traffic Offences) into law

Posted on Leave a comment

Stricter measures on the road will be introduced if this Bill is singed into law. The National Assembly has done its bit. Now it is up to President Cyril Ramaphosa to sign the controversial Administrative Adjudication of Road Traffic Offences (Aarto) Bill into law.

As reported by Business Tech, both Houses were in agreement that the Bill ought to be singed into law. It is now the responsibility of the president to decide if it will indeed serve its purpose, which is to fundamentally change the way South Africans drive.

Where will we see changes with the Aarto Bill?
Penalties on non-payment of traffic fines?

Once the new Bill becomes law, law enforcement will have the right to clamp down a lot harder on motorists who fail to pay their traffic fines.

Currently, motorists with unpaid traffic fines still enjoy the luxury of being on the road. This new law will more than likely restrict that, or at least make driving around with unpaid

Posted on Leave a comment

While South Africa is a troubled country in turmoil, few are aware that the fear white South Africans live in, has reached beyond our borders. A white South African farmer and his family asked for asylum at the US border with Mexico.

They were kept at a Mexican holding for three weeks for protection before meeting with the US Customs and Border Patrol (CBP). They have undergone extensive grilling and interviews. They had to do a credible fear test, which they passed. That is right, their fear is real.

The white farmer has a minor daughter that was interviewed without the presence of her parents. Currently, the family resides with friends in the US after the US Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) concluded the family could apply for asylum. The United States authorities concluded that the South Africans has done everything correctly in their attempt to safeguard themselves against the threat against their lives from South Africa

Posted on Leave a comment

Public Protector Busisiwe Mkhwebane named and shamed those that defied her instructions today and the top names include Cyril Ramaphosa, Minister Tito Mboweni and Minister Bheki Cele.

“If you are a minister, you should be respecting the Constitution and the rule of law.”

With fifty top heads of state outlined including the President, the Finance Minister and Police Minister how should the nation feel about our leaders….trusting and confident?

According to Senzo Mchunu, one of ANC president Cyril Ramaphosa’s confidantes, black managers are too blame for the bankrupt Eskom

Posted on Leave a comment

An ANC member of the party’s National Executive Committee, Senzo Mchunu, says it is black executives who are responsible for the condition at Eskom.

He says all that they have achieved was to do well in the failures.

Senzo Mchunu is one of ANC president Cyril Ramaphosa’s confidantes who are now out against Eskom’s “black managers”.

In an interview, he added that they would still regret some of their black managers  who were praised as excellent executives and trusted by the ANC.

Opinion polls say the ruling concludes that Italians from whites must correct the chaos at Eskom while many highly skilled drivers are finding whites in South Africa but hated and therefore will not be used.

What did South-Africans used before candles? Electricity! – Eskom is apparently technically bankrupt and its R420bn debt currently accounts for 15% of the country’s debt – will no longer exist at the current projection by April 2019

Posted on Leave a comment

The Portfolio Committee of Public Enterprises heard at the hearing of the Department of Public Entities that Eskom was “technically bankrupt”.

Eskom will no longer exist at the current projection by April 2019.

The power supply’s R420bn debt burden currently accounts for 15% of the country’s debt and its revenue has increased fourfold since 2007 but its expenses, especially with staff overload, have exceeded revenue. Staff alone increased from 32,000 to 48,000 in eleven years.

Despite the increase in staff, critical knowledge was lacking, which resulted in 40% of interruptions at the different power stations being attributed to “human factors”.

ANC president builds poor record due to numerous occasions where he has been caught distorting the truth, now Ramaphosa refuses to show the contract between his son and Bosasa

Posted on Leave a comment

President Cyril Ramaphosa refused the opposition party’s request to disclose the contract between his son, Andile Ramaphosa and Bosasa.

Opposition parties claim that its refusal indicates that the contract does not exist and the president has once again lied.

Observers reckon that he is becoming increasingly entangled with all the untruths and denials that further detract from his credibility.

To date, the ANC president has built up a poor record because of the numerous times he was caught up in distorting the truth.

The National Health Insurance Act which will soon be put proposed, to provide free health care to everyone, regardless of where they are calling for medical care, will lead to chaos in private hospitals and may finally break the country’s economy

Posted on Leave a comment

According to President Cyril Ramaphosa, it is clear that the country’s health care is in crisis and needs rehabilitation.

More than 75% of state hospitals budget goes for salaries that are severely affected by patients who are not receiving proper treatment due to a money shortage.

According to Ramaphosa, the National Health Insurance Act will soon be tabled, which will provide free health care to all regardless of where they call for medical care.

Experts point out that Zuma’s “free education” has plunged the country’s universities into chaos, and now its successor comes and wants to get the country’s total health care messed up.

The result of the policy will lead to chaos in private hospitals and may finally break the country’s economy.

WHO DIDN’T CHECK THE CALENDAR? – Ramaphosa just killed Indaba 2019 – Biggest tourism expo to take place on the general election date

Posted on Leave a comment

Ramaphosa stood up in Parliament on Thursday and emphasized the importance of tourism. And then he killed 2019 tourism.

When he decided on a general election on 8 May, didn’t any body bother to look at the calendar? Indaba, the biggest tourism expo in South Africa, usually the destination for foreign investors and visitors, takes place on 8 May.

And arrangements are now too far to re-schedule or postpone. Cancelling would cost millions, not only in wasted funds, but in lost revenue.

A number of influential people in the tourism world indicated that they will not be attending this year, on the one hand because they need to be home for voting day, on the other: Why go to the expense of setting up a stall at Indaba if nobody is going to be there?

Ramaphosa just killed Indaba 2019. And the tourism industry will feel the effects. How is it possible that such elementary things cannot be considered while trying to govern a country?
