After his controversial speech at BNC#4, Rob Hersov answers questions from BizNews founder Alec Hogg and members of the BizNews community. Rob's Speech: • "ANC, voetsek!" - advi...
I do have hope on this country if there are still people like this, I just hope people should stop following a political party like it's a football club. We should consider other parties cause the definition of crazy is repeating the same thing hoping it'll change, the ANC has failed us big time, I'm 19 yrs old and I wish other young people wake up
One of the key beneficiaries of apartheid is speaking on a full stomach. They looted SA during apartheid. Ramaphosa was their pawn in the so called Democratic SA but he failed them these greedy wolves. Now they want to destroy the ANC because it is no longer profiting them. Why don't they work with the EFF to deliver the STOLEN African wealth back to the rightful owners. People like him work behind closed doors to deny blacks opportunities while buying stupid black leaders to oppress the people of this land. And then they come in public and pretend to be the good guys. You are young, don't rush into anything, do your research and inform yourself first.
@@aMusingAngel1 Stop lying...thats your homework. Oh and, GO home to the Caucus mountains maybe your Neanderthal ancestors are still roaming the area etc. Google maps is available to all the entitled FOREIGNERS like you.
Thank you Rob, we surely need people like you that can stand their ground, speak the truth bluntly. May you be granted all the wisdom to help restore our country and economy back.I support you all the way,
Thank you Rob for your vision. I salute you! Why is your concept so difficult to understand by South Africans? We unfortunately deal with the race card... however I do support you 100%!
@@bittereinder4594 If so then you'll live under our rules...So stop complaining about ANC!...And continue paying that Tax if not you'll be sorry, We run this ship
Hi Rob. U definitely wake up peoples brains. I admire your patriotism. Like u I cannot live anywhere else. We just what was given to us. It’s been destroyed. U truly show your love for this country openly. And honestly. I hope and pray u succeed in your efforts. Yes this is home to us. I am in the tourist business for thirty years. I am a small business owner but an honest one. I have not received a cent from the government from covid for my lossess. But let me share something with u. I must still meet a tourist who had anything bad to say about this beautiful country of ours. That’s what keeps me happy and wanting to stay in business Stay strong. Stay outspoken 🙏
You kidding us right ??? tourists don't live there, every so many seconds a person is murdered!!! SA's days are over with big mouth Malema. Just as he says you've got gangsters running the country!!!
I honestly cannot wait for the demise of anc I'm even shocked that after all these years there are still people who believe that anc will change, nonsensical
@@tatendamutsvanga9153 EFF is *not* the black vote. That's the inconvenient reality Effer propagandists always hope to hide. It's why your ceiling is 12%.
Mr. Hersov i love your openness, straight forward talk and actually using the proper words for the actual situations, keep on doing this patriotic work, and don't be surprised, they will try to hate and ridicule you, Salute!
If egos can be put aside and form a popular front then the most critical thing is to register the non voters. Wìthout the numbers the ANC can't be dislodged.
no the ANC are deliberately are impoverishing and destroying the economy to justify socialism and ultimately communism. They know EXACTLY what they are doing. The NDR & Freedom Charter are pure Stalinist communism . If the average poor, black ANC voter with little resources or opportunities knew how their beloved ANC was using them.... and the race thing, the ANC scare their voters and press hard on old scars and wont let them heal. They like to keep their voters angry and confused... Its so sad to witness, and nothing I say will make a difference Im just some white guy.
Did not realise SA is in such a HUGE MESS , been away for over 35 years it is so sad to hear from Rob how bad it is got , it is mind blowing how the country has failed in such a short time , it is really time for change and to start fresh again .
South africa was a huge MESS a 100 years ago now its better than it has been since 1948 when Pigs, National Party , came to power with their crazy Dutch doctrine : APARTHEID . ANC shall remain in power for some time just like MPLA , ZANUPF , FRELIMO , CHAMA CHAMAPINDUZI . The only party that has a chance to dethrone the ANC is EFF but that can only happen if UDM, ATM , BLF, PAC, AZAPO, IFP swallow their collective pride and join /support and campaign for the EFF openly . European parties like DA , FF+, Solidarity and Dutch FORUM have no chance at all .
The truth is, as Rob says, most informed Saffricans know what needs to be done. His ideas are neither novel nor controversial-it's just logical common sense to anyone with real entrepreneurial experience, i.e. building a sustainable organisation vs ideological rhetoric masking self-enrichment. Getting to know many entrepreneurs' most intimate beliefs and perspectives (I've coached / mentored 1,000s of local entrepreneurs), I'd expect almost all of them would share Rob's sentiments. What is novel, I think, is Rob's courage to state his views so bluntly, more so that he doesn't back down despite the backlash-I have huge admiration and respect for this.
Just make sure those millions in townships hear you and most importantly understand your points. That's the only way to finally get rid of this toxic ineffective useless anc. No one has highlighted these pertinent points to the Township voter.
@@mohjayy very good point. Perhaps we rely too much on the media to carry our message. May Rob go from strength to strength. He is driven by passion and seems to have enough money to back him. SA desperately needs people like him. More so, we need God to heal our land.
Rob you are a rock! I am a tour guide & as a result regard myself as an Ambassador to SA/ Southern Africa. I also have absolutely NO desire or want to leave. I, LIKE YOU, WILL FIGHT TILL MY LAST BREATH FOR THIS COUNTRY.... AMEN
Rob Hersov, I like your spirit of wanting to change things for the better and greater good, equally to all South Africans in this Country, there is hope in there, especially when there is more hearts and minds behind it. Having said that, I would not pull the Citizens of this Country nor put my money behind either ANC nor DA unless I want to further punish this Country into submission. While EFF, UDM; COPE etc come from ANC; Action SA; One SA and other great Black Leaders come out of DA. As South Africans we do not have patience left to panelbeat, a crooked ANC and or DA, and straighten. We have reached our threshold. There is a huge grave risk in "hoping" for a certain single outcome, post 2024 elections, as that may not NOT only materialuse but NOT be the solution for greater South Africans and South Africa. Just like you Rob, I would like to challenge South Africans to be open minded, think out of race, gender; colour and political , social or economic constituencies, and solve "x", when "y" is the problem sets we are currently faced with. It is my view that South Africans have better chances of getting peace ; prosperity; sound Leadership under the Leadership of the following South African Citizens: under the burner/ "A Democratic Governing Society (ADGS)". Formed by True Citizens and Competing against all current political parties. 1. Gayton McKenzie - Minister of Defence 2. Zamani Saul - Minister of Education 3. Chris Pappas - Minister of Finance 4. Lindiwe Mazibuko - President 5. Joel Netshitendze - Deputy President 6. Mashaba - Minister of Home affairs 7. Prof Nathi Mdladla - Minister of Health 8. Mmamuloko Kubayi - Minister of Security and Defence 9. John Steenheizen - Minister of Land affairs ( work to solve all x Land problems with all political parties for this Country ). 10. Rob Hersov - Minister of Business and Enterprise 11. Minister of Transport - Mashaba's former DA Member 12. Minister of Telecommunications - Mpho Phalatsi South Africans must choose who can be their President, and support him / her fully, but I made my proposal, and I think Lindiwe Mazibuko would offer calm and comfort as she neither belongs to DA/ANC or any other party for that matter. Joel Netshitendze as a Deputy President. The other 6 be split accross all Ministries to deliver services to Citizens of this Country ( it's better to have fewer working hands than a group of incompetent guys ) . They must be given a clear detailed mandate with deadlines/ time sensitive to transform this Country, and pluck it out of this mud, but before then, we as a Democratic Citizens must already have trashed out which laws or systems that won't work for peace in this Country. We must address how Land and eConomic transformation be dealt with, peacefully, with 0 casualties. I have confidence this way, we have greater chance of winning. Then political parties will need to go back to the drawing board and Unite behind politics that serve this Country and present those to the executing Team, elected by " ADGS". There is no better justice than that.
This man is a visionary and a patriot. He has pragmatic solutions which requires the buy in of ALL South Africans. That he loves this country there is no doubt.I believe his ideas can turn this ship around.
This man was a close friend of mine at university. We are talking about an oligarch. Do not believe the sincerity of one word he says. He is there to maintain a certain sense of power. I was witness to it, during mu university days with him. Wake up.
The ANC really did inherit the best economy in Africa and messed it up. This guy is right and everything he is saying is true our very own black government has failed us big time. Look at the parastatals where they were during apartheid and where are they now.
The "good ANC" should then immediately resign from the ANC and call themselves something else then. Otherwise forget it, it will just be one big fib. DO NOT affiliate with the ANC.
Get rid of BEE.. instead of making us rich it is making us more poorer than we were yesterday. You borrow money to satisfy the purchase order and a 10 % bribe an official who takes your tender document after the closing date, so that you quote the lowest. By the time you get paid you need to pay Umashonisa back with a 50% interest fee since the banks cant borrow you money as you are a high risk. So may the good God help us all.
The ANC is the mother holding her dead baby. Rob and his team is coming closer to help her to let go of her dead baby, but the mother is aggressive and shows her teeth to them..
Thanks Rob. I'm all for it! I'm afraid I was naive and let my ex steal all I had, so I can't contribute R100k. However, in the event you can use me in your efforts, I'd be happy to throw in my weight in by doing something that needs doing
Another brilliant engagement. Fills one with an emotion based on faith and light at the end of this.... Negative spiral. My continued blessings to both Rob and Alec. Thankyou!!! 🌈⭐🌞
Love him or hate him but there's no denying that Rob is a breath of fresh air and just the sort of person this Country needs at a critical period in it's history. The people of SA have been screaming for a leader; well here's one very capable person who has the balls to say what every Citizen with more than half a brain is thinking and speaking about in private but too scared to say publicly. Why not unite behind him and support what he stands for before it's too late. He definitely has my vote. What have we got to lose?; unless we've become so accustomed to having sewerage flowing on the streets and come to accept this as the norm...; things cannot get much worse.
Sell off South Africa wholesale regardless of the strategic significance, next our Ports and Coastal resources. The DA already expressed an interest in Cape Town harbours. Once privatized ie. Corporatized these vital strategic territories will no longer belong to sovereign South Africans. Yet, taxes have built and maintained these assets. No doubt taxes will still be used to capitalize the businesses that acquire these facilities.
Lol, the stuff this guy spews, having made his money off the backs of cheap labor in his mines. You are what they call in Russia an Oligarch Sir....Your Friends in Europe and America are front running SA atm in terms of their economies tanking. What is inflation in the USA today Sir? What is it in Europe Sir?
Great speech and Ideas but it seems as though you are still not talking to the ordinary South Africans who hold the majority vote. all these plans can be made but they won't get to the normal citizens who vote, you should be going to townships to try to figure out why black people keep on voting for the ANC and what could be done to change that I believe that is where the true answer lies.
@@friedafarmboys7491 They will be in for a shock come 2024 the only black South Africans who are willing to vote for the DA are the middle class and the rich which is such a small percentage of black people because they benefit in terms of having jobs, the average black person has nothing to Do with the economy because it does not benefit them in anyway. at least he has the option of moving to Europe to go and spend his billions there.
@@friedafarmboys7491 I think you have it all wrong.....does the ANC who are black go to the townships and help and empower their people??? They don't.....
Excellent as always Rob. I am a businessman from Cape Town, and would love to get some advice from you regarding my current position, and opportunities abroad that I fear I am going to miss out on.
I don't agree with Rob....yes he has money and all that.......but how do you say the DA can govern.....for who will they govern.....Western Cape is not a good model to base that assertion.....if that is his assertion.......Western Cape is different from all other provinces......We know what is happening in the Western Cape.....it's easy to get away with the things that he is against in the Western Cape.......
Bravo Rob. I feel just the same as you. Always have. It’s so reaffirming to see someone as bright and successful as you talk about our country. We have a chance. But people must vote. And vote well. The youth in particular.
Mr Hersov well done, full respect to you and what you have achieved in your time, and hope many many more to come. Top business man and an amazing achiever. WELL DONE! ROB many believe, if the ANC or EFF are to be excluded/fall from any political power in SA they will burn everything to the ground with no remorse - only rubble will remain. What we've seen till now is nothing to what will happen if they loose power
David there’s a higher intelligence than just a high IQ, we name it consciousness. Think and act without the ego. The majority of world leaders lack consciousness imo.
Put your money towards putting up the billboards. Your ego works for you. Let it works for us. The people who no one speaks for. Don’t gaslight us. We have been effed over enough. Stop relying on others. Take your 10best buddies and make it work. Stop moaning.
The greatest assets of South Africa are our people, we all have the same dreams and the same daft sense of humour. Nowhere else do you find people making jokes about really bad situations. The easiest way to bring good change in South Africa is to point out that the most wonderful thing would be for all our people to realise that electing the most competent people to work for us and run the country. Nobody would feel any loyalty to parties because of their past. So if our new “employees” don’t make any improvements we can just remove them from their jobs and replace them with someone else. Knowing you can lose your job for messing up is a major incentive to do the best you can. So vote in those we owe no loyalty to and make them work for us.
Alan Winde is underrated, for me he is the best person who can be president in this country. He has a lot of experience from running the Western Cape and is doing a phenomenal job. Imagine if he had to take over South Africa
I was listening earnestly until he said Geyton Mckenzie for President, now I realize how naive Rob is. But I respect him and share the sentiment for passion he has for the country.
Rob, you said you are willing to buy SA's regional airports for R2 billion. You also said earlier, it would take R1 billion as an incentive to get an opposition pack to work together. Don't buy the airports, use half the amount you have offered to get the DA in power and the airports will get fixed by them. I've saved you and your partner R1 billion.
Great idea Rob,that is the way to go,but getting some of the anc people onboard is where i beg to differ,because these anc people will get the influence from the others from outside to subbotage this hypothetic cabinet, i know exactly how the anc oparates, theres a lot of great people in this country to do the job right....
What a great vision Rob has! He should be given responsibility to liaise with the opposition parties and convince them to agree on those six issues he referred to.
Yes, give him the responsibility to liaise with the opposition, with all due speed,, so that everything can be resolved pronto, one million, pacco rabanne. All six issues, resolved immediatedly. Pronto.
Ok Rob U now convinced me to vote DA who have also been spineless and confused since Zille not in charge - only cos If we don’t then we in deep shit 🙈🙈🙈
@@robhersov2486 You rant is filled with little markers that your hate for the ANC is recent. Perhaps, as Mantashe so maliciously suggested, it has to do with the ACSA bid. The timing is suspect, just like the perennially useless Ramankole, frog boiling, million dollar couch president' timing of the suspension of the monumentally useless PP. You don't hobnob with people whom you hate
A few questions: Will the ANC (and in particular, those at the front of the feeding trough) go quietly and without a fight? If not, what could we expect in the form of a back lash, how will this be dealt with, who will do it and how will it be done?
We need a party which clearly maps out how jobs will be created for example wehave 1500 000 foreign shop keepers in South Africa let's create 1500 000 south African shop keepers from the unemployed in particular graduates who do not have jobs regards bruce bishop
Your plan lacks the most Important R's Rob is Redistribution, Retribution and Redress because you are only focusing a group of people it's not inclusive
In a new dispensation Corruption must be the Big Taboo. Rob's right. RW's Popular Front (DA-led) vs ANC-EFF. Some out-the-box thinking by Rob, on McKenzie as Prez.
Man I love this guys I could listen to him all day, but what we need is action - I’m gonna do my part in the next two years to kick out the useless incompetent corrupt ANC
I think we need to be realistic sometimes about what is happening in the country. This is the fault of everyone in the country meaning South Africa. Firstly, it starts with the country's education system which doesn't produce any quality to improve the country. Our country is led by people with no vision and mission Our country is led by people who don't love it any more Our country is led by greedy people, who don't care about anybody beside himself or herself
You need more people to stand with you... yet you have an option of leaving this country to Australia, guess what less than 40% of South Africa have that opportunity.. we need a leader that will provide and protect us and our families! My point is became full whom you are after and start to speak to them.. with the language they understand.. I pray you get my point Rob
