Two months after unrest not seen since the end of apartheid, people are counting the losses. This as the country deals with the triple threat of unemployment, poverty, and inequality. Economists call it a ticking time bomb. Is it about to explode?

I found myself becoming quite annoyed at how sub-standard this report was. It went to lengths showing the inequality but did an extremely poor job in offering workable solutions. Redistribution of wealth? Oh YAWN! Seriously - If someone gave me a million and I remained uneducated and unskilled, how would I uplift myself once I wake up from the celebration? The woman who made the spa is an example of how someone took initiative and actually improved their circumstances. She took responsibility for her circumstances and created something positive for her and her community. This is how you create a better South Africa.

Kenya is not even in the top 5 of the biggest economies in Africa. Yes SA is moving backwards but saying SA should have “proper things like Kenya “ is reaching. Don’t be fooled by these videos . Kenya is still way behind than SA . Maybe if you say SA should learn from Rwanda or even Botswana than we will understand. Those 2 countries have shown steady and fast growth in the last decade and I believe they’re the least corrupt in the whole of Africa.

The first step we should start as South Africans is to start being independent sometimes its not the government its the choices we make the SouthAfrican government is trying to eliminate corruption there are measures put in place like the Hawks and the state capture i think it time we as South Africans start appreciating the little work the government is doing its time,its time we start seeing how we can change our country for the best

Wow, As a Kenyan, I never thought a South African could ever say, "learn from the Kenyans", because our politics & corruption make my heart hurt. It must be very bad (politically) in S.A for him to make that statement. I hope the younger generation of African leaders can help us be more forward thinkers, and not just worry about "our own" because that is what breeds greed and corruption.

The context of his comment was "liberating SA from the liberators of SA" just like Kenya has done. Yes, Kenya's politics is still tribal and corruption is rife. However, Kenya has been ruled by 5 different political parties since independence. SA has only been ruled by one party that is still led by the "old liberators" of SA and their cronies. New brooms sweep clean kinda thing. You don't expect new radical ideas from the old guard. They are addicted to the status quo that continues to fatten them. Kenya has had a new constitution, stronger expanded parliament (better representation), stronger independent judiciary, devolved county govt units, huduma centers, CDF, women representatives, local government funds, independent electoral body and some improved transparency in elections, corruption is called out more often without consequences to the whistle blower unlike KANU days ... All these are baby steps Kenya is making towards a brighter future. All these reforms were made possible because Kenyans liberated themselves from the liberators (KANU). Or maybe my understanding of his comment was totally wrong. Or then maybe I understood him correctly.

When you get rid of property right and have confiscation you might reduce people’s motivation to increase their economic activity- since it can be taken away by fiat. Doesn’t looting (a rather more earthy form of confiscation) show that businesses can’t cope with paying bills and surviving if their stock is taken without payment. Removing wealth by confiscation is radical - but not sure there are many examples of it resulting in a situation that anyone wants to see. Any argument that this would be a one off will only sit well with those that have the assets after the confiscation- the don’t haves will then seek another and another ‘redistribution’.

"Solutions, that seek to grab things from the neck of tree instead of the roots are doomed to fail", yes 27 years is a short amount of time to correct a regime (Apartheid) that had griped the nation of South Africa for nearly 5 decades and there was a system that was just as oppressive before that as well, which spanned for nearly 2 centuries, but it is still no justifiable excuse for someone in your position to make, since the ruling party took control from the racist National Party in 1994, things have gotten worse instead of better, the ANC has nothing concrete to show for the past 27 years, all I'm saying is if your intentions were true to what you constantly promise to deliver, you would have something to show for it, instead what you have to show for it, is the most unequal society on Earth and the highest unemployment rate on Earth and for those of you who do not know, about two thirds of the South African population is a young population, so that's saying something.

Population in SA increased by 23,000,000 between 1990 and 2020.Would like to know any country that started in last place then added 23 million new citizens requiring food water clothing healthcare housing education electricity jobs. We foolishly dance around this reality choosing instead to blame blame blame individuals, just read the atrocious comments to see this happening. SA is a harbinger of where we're headed globally. Globally 80 million net new precious humans join us every year. That's 10 New York Cities of infrastructure etc. that must be built EVERY YEAR. Today we're at 8 billion humans, another 13 years and it will be 9 billion. Yet it's the same planet that only 120 yrs ago had 1 billion humans. If we do not address this in an intelligent coordinated humane global manner all will surely be lost...

I laughed but then my parents told me it wasn't funny at all. I even saw an upstairs built shack as i went to cape town airport to leave the country. I felt shocked and bad for the locals who don't deserve to live in a miserable life 😔
