Two thoughts:
I took 20+ years to break the SA education system, dumb it down, on purpose, as per the Russian manual on how to keep control of the population.
To fix it will take another generation and each year it is delayed, is another year added to the 20.
Current Situation:
We don't have the money nor the political willpower to fix it as those in charge have larger problems to focus on like the continuing fallout of State Capture, ANC factions etc.
We need leaders that can fiercely go where no-one has gone before.
Maybe Cyril pulls through, still too early ito the factions. SA will hop along till Cyril gets the rot cut out, sorted for the next SA president of sterling character.
.... or something is going to snap somewhere.
What irks the hell out of me.
Not for one moment do I believe the likes of Cyril and every other person of "power" in Government, the banks, the Reserve Bank, large media outlets, did not know of the rot.
KPMG knew. Monjane knew. Zuma knew. Mbeki knew ... list goes on and on.
"They" knew.
Today everyone is shocked when the likes of the Daily Maverick gets "new" evidence and publishes it.
Some news outlets published blatantly false information, having had to give back awards and having to retract the reports, not properly investigated ... ja right.
"They" all know in which cupboards the skeletons are kept.
Problem is, to open all the doors will result in thousands and thousands of criminal prosecutions, if taken from the top to the bottom.
And it is not only SA, it is an international problem.
