SONA Review

Time to go to our last segment and today we are zooming into South Africa where President Cyril Ramaphosa of South Africa delivered his state of the nation address in a very quiet and partly empty parliament. Ramaphosa announced a number of measures to rebuild the economy including supporting young entrepreneurs. He also announced the formation of the National anti-corruption Advisory Council to fight corruption. Earlier I spoke to General Secretary of the South African Federation of Trade Unions, Zwelinzima Vavi about his thoughts. He said the organisation is calling on a total economic shutdown later this month.
