Very important that election observers/monitors REMAIN in #Zimbabwe until the end of this process. Those who endorse this poll before being satisfied with the reconciliation of raw ballot figures with final results are not election observers, merely election tourists.

Our daughter, Rachel, had her bone marrow transplant in March 2017. We celebrated her one-year anniversary - an incredible milestone - and we toasted her anonymous donor. And we continue to salute all the donors - who save lives and give the gift of hope. #SunflowerDay2018

#Noseweek did its work: in Feb & March 2012 we spelt out just how crooked Resilient players & their game on JSE has always been. A sharp reminder in 2015 failed to influence big players e.g. OMutual and Coronation, JSE itself, proving only interested in profits, not principle nitter.gq/Magda_Wierzycka/status…

Imagine we asked for all money stolen from the state, claimed damages for every Group Areas removal, pass law arrest, back wages for all lowest paid workers ...domestic and farm workers...

When you play the game of thrones, you win or you die.
Or you have a meeting.
And another one.
And await the outcome of that one.
And then you have the SABC announce it.
Except it's premature.
So you wait a bit more.

Also journalists. Thank you to the tireless newshounds who never stopped sniffing and digging. nitter.gq/PaulivW/status/9630687…
Before the opposition jumps to claim victory at the political carcas in Irene, let’s take a moment to thank
South Africans;
whistleblowers and;
NGO’s
for chipping away at this elephant for the past decade.
Salut.

Maths and science are the foundations of the 4th Industrial Revolution jobs. By lowering the standards at 30% pass mark we are depriving so many of relevant education. Shortage of teachers is resolvable by harnessing technology-enabled solutions. nitter.gq/businesstechsa/status/…

It is a brutal destruction of value for both retirement funds and individual investors. Where was proper research? Most asset mgt agreements indemnify investors against ‘gross negligence’. In my view this qualifies. Time to test those clauses. nitter.gq/richards_karin/status/…

Yesterday somebody told me not to make critical statements about #Steinhoff on the grounds that it was unpatriotic. Some folks' double standards are Olympic level.

Re attacks from active managers on my view on Steinhoff: Index trackers buy all JSE Index shares so all have some exposure to Steinhoff. But passive managers like Sygnia don’t market their research skills nor charge for that. As indices have many shares, exposure is v diluted.
