AN AFRICA CONFIDENTIAL SUBSCRIBER BRIEFING

South Africa’s Government of National Unity: Will it survive and can it deliver growth and jobs ?

Most of South Africa’s voters along with many national and international companies support the 10-party Government of National Unity formed a month after the African National Congress lost its parliamentary majority in the 29 May elections.

The ANC, the centre-right Democratic Alliance and Inkatha Freedom Party have shared out the ministries. Now they have to agree a reform strategy.

Its biggest political tests will be curbing corruption, violent crime and working with the opposition MK party in KwaZuluNatal. Its economic goals are to restore reliable electricity and water supply while unblocking the logistics crisis on rail, roads and at the ports.

Assessing the GNU’s chances are anti-apartheid activist turned businessman Oyama Mabandla, journalist and commentator Crystal Orderson, veteran journalist and business analyst John Battersby.

We look forward to welcoming you to a vibrant discussion on the prospects for Africa’s most modern economy.
