Verkiesing oorheers SONA
Klerksdorp Rekord, Klerksdorp - President Cyril Ramaphosa se staatsrede verlede week in Kaapstad was meer party-polities van aard as ander jare, omdat ‘n nasionale verkiesing voorlê.
Prof Raymond Parsons, ekonoom verbonde aan die NWU Besigheidskool, het in sy kommentaar op die staatsrede gesê daar is duidelik nog baie onvoltooide sake op die nasionale agenda, wat ‘n meer omvattende ekonomiese plan moet insluit om werkskepping te stimuleer.
Dr Pieter Groenewald, leier van die Vryheidsfront Plus het nie doekies omgedraai nie en gesê die president en die ANC is “totaal verwyder van die realiteite van die probleme waarmee gewone Suid-Afrikaners daagliks mee worstel’’.
