Hi Dave
I agree with you but it is apparent that the state of our country is a result of bad management.
This means as citizens we have a duty to call Government and for that sake Eskom as well to book.

So let's fire the managers.
Suing for damages doesn't help in matters of public interest - the cost of defence and the cost of settlement are just passed back onto the "customers" - basically, us ordinary citizens on whose behalf the case is brought in the first place.
My argument is that when suing government in the public interest, it should be on the basis that their actions are unlawful, not as a claim for damages.

This is what I am currently very confused about. It would seem to be clear (as mud) that Eskom's management purposefully ran down the coal supplies to cut costs. This resulted in lots of wet coal "dust" going into the generators instead of the nice pellets that should be used. This results in failure of generators - "unplanned outages."
Why is there even talk of any form of bonus? I don't know exactly what Eskom's shareholder make up is, but shouldn't the government be reducing the salaries of top management with absolutely no talk of bonuses?
Just out of a matter of interest, what are the chances of a criminal case against them?

Governments are all about power, and for now the judiciary acts independantly of govt. The real danger is when govt. takes control or is capable of influencing the judiciary. If what is posted is true, the individuals are scared to take on govt. then one has to ask the question how do the individual judges feel about making decisions against govt.? And right there the moral fabric of society is in trouble.....?
