South Africa was open to business as usual and it was unlikely that the current ANC policy conference would shift to a more left-wing stance on economic management, ANC executive member Cyril Rampahosa said yesterday.
Ramaphosa, who chaired a commission session of the ANC policy conference that started on Wednesday and ends tomorrow, was asked about his position on discouraging monopoly capitalism in South Africa.
He supported the position of ANC policy maker Joel Netshitenzhe and said it was important to harness private sector forces to achieve the democratic revolution objectives.
Asked if he sensed that there would be a shift to the left on economic policy as a consequence of the policy conference, he said he did not. The man, touted by many as the next possible candidate for the ANC presidency, said he sensed South Africa was open to business "as usual".
