Real jobs need to be created
The Citizen|November 26, 2024
The recent announcement about the decrease of the unemployment rate from 33.5% to 32.1% should be taken with a pinch of salt.
MANDLA MTHEMBU

This may have been a positive development but, if we are honest, this decrease is meaningless. Unemployment remains high and there are many people who are discouraged to look for work altogether because hope is all lost.

SA's high unemployment rate is cemented in an inadequate education and training system that tends to fail to address the country's economic needs. Our education system fails to encourage entrepreneurship to a point where it is normal to find job seekers, rather than job creators.
