The Plan To End South Africa’s Gangster Economy - Episode #89

In Today's Show:  South Africa’s rolling out a new anti-gang strategy - one built on intelligence and coordination instead of brute force. But after decades of failure, can it really clean up a system where crime and corruption overlap? Meanwhile, a global study finds South Africans are living shorter, sicker lives as lifestyle diseases erase our HIV-era gains. The Reserve Bank, though, says there’s reason to smile - the rand’s stabilising and finally earning respect abroad. And in the wildcard, Kimberley’s pink paradise has lost its colour - but maybe not for good.PLEASE NOTE: Tomorrow’s episode will be recorded using a slightly different setup as we fine-tune things - please let us know if the sound feels better or worse on your end.More From Us:⁠⁠SpotifyApple Podcast⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok
