And the headline reads 'Transformation not as advanced as BEE scorecards suggest' – Sanlam report The report says that After analysing all the data and interviewing people working in these companies, the researchers concluded that "transformation is not as advanced as the scorecards suggest". Why is this not a surprise? The article concludes with Masilela […]

Unfortunately my tirade against SANAS brutality has not ended. I'm amused by this but not by the unchecked power that SANAS wields over the economy through their verification agencies. I am going to write to the dtic about this, my concern is that SANAS is amending codes in fact. It doesn't matter that it's not

The reader might be unaware that this blog's curator took the Duncan McLeod article to the Daily Maverick with his (not Duncan's) typical anti- bolshie twist. It was a more sanitised version of my normal blog posts, no bolshie bob references – just Rob Davies, I think that my bolshie point has been made. I

There are two types of people in this world, Harry van der Merwe and everybody else. I happen to like Harry – can't be sure about most other people, specifically if they are anc appointees. Harry sent this to me today. My old friend – the ever destructive bolshie bob has been told via his
Bolshie bob gets a high court bollocking – this must open the doors for more litigation Read More »
Well this was the original intention, until bolshie bob was launched upon us. His commie-addled mind could not understand that you can't grow and share if there is no growth. It wasn't a surprise that this little vignette hit the news A day after President Cyril Ramaphosa announced a nationwide shutdown and relief measures to

Before I go into the number of VAs (79 of them) there is something else that needs to be discussed. And it's the dti and their BEE codes. The economy is now comfortably in a recession, productivity is decreasing substantially because of the isolation. Small businesses (which are the backbone of the economy – that's

Oh to leave a legacy. This wasn't a priority for zuma and it's certainly not a priority for bolshie bob who demonstrated a callous disregard for the well being of the economy. Before he vacated his office he left us with four more gazettes. This is no longer his problem, it's now Ebie's issue. As

It certainly appears so. This is a strange story because it seems that only Business Day published the story. And as usual they published behind their paywall so you can't see it. I do have a copy though and I will lift a paragraph or two for your benefit. The Black Economic Empowerment Commission, which

This is a post that I have been wanting to write for a long time. I eventually wrote it as an article for Moneyweb, who published it on Friday and syndicated it to the Citizen (now I'm really famous). I have been mulling this over for a long time. Why is it that these BEE
Transformation or a smokescreen – the BEE codes are more of the latter Read More »
Most people will read this post after the announcement, and I don't think my wish will come true. Our dear friend bolshie bob is so confident in his incompetence that he has tasked one of his lackeys to defend him after a certain Robert Stone Linden wrote a letter to the Business Day and said
