They say you should never start an article, book, sermon, song nor diatribe aimed at the DTI with I. I haven't. I am busy, I have a hell of a lot of work to get through before the end of the year. Unfortunately the DTI and its minions are causing me to slip up on […]

Things were settling down. Zuma is being roasted by the opposition, the ANC is not too forthcoming in defending him and Rob is justifying why Ithuba is better than Gidani. But once again they caught us by surprise. Two new documents have been released, one for comment and the other just to throw the cat

This is in spite of the fact that I am Twitter illiterate but what the hell, so is our esteemed Persecuted president (he's just plain illiterate – see the picture below). How about #beeecodesmustfall or perhaps more accurately #revisedbeeecodesmustfall. Me being the Twidiot I am, I have no idea how to create such a #;

Maladministration is a long-time reader of this writty. He's sort of faded off the radar but he knows a person or two. He responded to my weekend post Rob has a bigger problem. 3(2) is potentially meaningless to the objective he wants to achieve. All empowerment licensing regimes of which I know have specific BEE

This blog was started in August 2006. I started writing it as a guide to people who wanted to know more about the vagaries of black economic empowerment. Perhaps the liberating experience of having a platform to pretty much say what you want went to my head because the blog soon evolved into a political
This is another of those allegoric posts. I was privileged enough to accompany a client to go and meet a listed company – (who I have immense respect for). We met with Smutti (not her real name) who has been tasked to check that all their suppliers are making a plan when the new codes

Udge is reputed to be the drafter of the explanation notes that came out in May. It's a good gig if you can get it because the DTI are never going to publish anything that makes any sense or follows any logic, you'll be drafting explanation notes until Jesus returns. I haven't read his document
