Same story in Malaysia. Government attempted to rebalance and correct the economic disparity between the citizenry especially the rural and urban divide. The program than started to increasingly take a racial lense especially when the citizenry consisted of migrants and natives. The programs aims and implementation than took a turn from elimination of poverty among the citizenry and was increasingly seen from the angle of re engineering equity and equality between the races. Instead of looking at the individuals income, it became a blanket system based on race. Its end results are exactly what we see in South Africa. A grand old party that had enriched its leaders and members, endemic levels of corruption and Malaysia becoming one of the sickmen of South East Asia. A fall from glory as an Asian Tiger Economy.

What exactly are you looking for from other parties then? We have more credible parties than ever before. We have DA, and if you don't like them, we have Mashaba at ActionSA, Maimane at BOSA. I don't like them, but even Zibi with RiseMzansi wouldn't collapse the economy. I think we in South Africa are a little spoiled for choice. Don't forget, in many countries, they only have like 2 parties to choose from. I can promise, most people don't agree 100% agree with the party they vote for. But because we have so many, we maybe look too hard at trying to find a party that aligns 100% with our views. My recommendation is in this election, prioritize, and select an issue you want improved. For me it's jobs and the economy (which in my opinion, will also improve issues such as crime etc). By only looking at jobs/economy and ignoring everything else I have narrowed it down to DA or ActionSA. If immigration is #1, probably ActionSA and Patriotic Alliance. If education is #1, probably BOSA. We will have future elections to debate and carve out exactly what we want, but for now, vote for what is most important to you, and ignore the rest

The Rand manipulation thing was debunked already. The courts literally threw out the case because there wasn't enough evidence to even proceed with a trial. And the Rand hasn't kept quiet over loadshedding and Eskom. It's predicted that loadshedding is costing the SA economy around 5% per year. Loadshedding is a long-term issue, not a sudden issue such as Zumas legal battles. So you comparing apples and oranges. And what parastatals have been sold?

The MPC will not get a majority, the DA has been using right-wing rhetoric and there has been a black exodus in the DA, also add how the DA has been complicit in the condemnation of the Israel genocide in Gaza, on top of that the DA cozying up with the US majority of black South Africans I myself included do not see the DA or any other party in MPC as a viable alternative. Remember also, Zuma garners a lot of the Zulu support which I happen to be one. The IFP, which is the second biggest party in the MPC gets most of its votes from Zulu people which from what I have seen from my Zulu we will not be doing this year, so yes the MK party is very big threat in KZN at least.

One of the biggest problems with South Africa is that its leadership is very, very old. (Yes, the USA isn't the only country with that problem.) Ramaphosa is over 70, and Zuma and Mbeki are over 80. These were all guys who knew and worked with Nelson Mandela to help overthrow apartheid, and that's how they made their reputations, but that was A LONG TIME AGO! Most of these guys were educated in Soviet Russia and other Eastern European countries back when the Cold War was still going on, and, unfortunately, most still have that mindset. Probably more so than any other country, even the USA, South Africa needs a new, younger generation of leadership to step up. One without the apartheid-era/Cold-War baggage. Now is the time for generational change.

ANC incompetence started at the beginning by neglecting energy grid expansion. South Africa had a robust energy grid when ANC first took power, but it mainly supplied power to white communities. The ANC expanded grid access to previously neglected communities, but failed to update or expand the amount of coal plants. The energy grid issues are the primary issue with their economy, and will only get worse at the current rate as the country tries to swap to green energy.

Also, if all else fails, if MPC don't get enough votes, which is more likely than not, my hope is that the MPC makes a deal with the ANC, to keep them in power without the EFF and MK, but in exchange, sign the Devolution of Powers Act, giving provincial governments more power. That way, if Gauteng and KZN fall out of ANC hands, the MPC can have more control over our major provinces. Seems more likely than making Floyd Shivambu finance minister like EFF are asking for 😂

One positive of the formation of MK is the split of the ANC vote and that Jacob Zuma is already 82 years old. I don't see him standing in the next election and given that the party is based around the personality/cult of Zuma, regardless of what it attains in this election, it won't feature in the next. It might just be the downfall of the ANC this election.
