TK Pooe & Bheki Mahlobo | The TK Show
In this episode of The TK Show, TK speaks to Senior Analyst at the Centre for Risk Analysis (CRA), Bheki Mahlobo. They talk about how ANC policies have contributed to South Africa’s high unemployment rate, what could be done to remedy the situation, and how other emerging countries have managed to avoid this problem. They discuss the possibility of relaxing labour regulations, improving the education system through a voucher system, and how more secure property rights can boost our agricultural sector. It is a wide-ranging conversation that also looks ahead to the 2024 elections, growing political instability in the SADC region, the economic prospects of Europe and the United States, and how China’s zero-Covid policy has impacted global economic growth.
