Time biggest rival of GNU

WEBINAR: 30 YEARS EVIDENCE OF ITS MISUSE

Justice Malala unpacks how new govt can 'do something extraordinary'.

The biggest enemy President Cyril Ramaphosa and his team face is time. Some leaders suffer from the delusion that the country has time, but the 30 years after the first democratic elections show how time has been misused.

The dial on economic growth and job creation must move within the next six months.

The government of national unity (GNU) has gained investor confidence and credibility. We must use it, says Justice Malala, political analyst, commentator and writer.

Speaking during a PSG Think Big Series webinar, Malala unpacked his take on how the GNU can turn promises into policy.

“The biggest challenge for the GNU will be to stay alive. The parties need to stay inside the tent,” he says.

Everybody, particularly the two biggest players, the ANC and DA, must believe that staying inside the tent is more rewarding and politically profitable than stepping out.
