On BizNews' 12th birthday, Alec Hogg speaks with ArcelorMittal SA CEO Kobus Verster about the possible shutdown of its Newcastle steel plant. With 80,000 jobs at stake and Transnet, Eskom, and scrap metal policy failures bleeding the company dry, Verster says the IDC and government must act by 30 September or risk a social and economic disaster. The steel boss lays bare South Africa's crumbling industrial backbone - and offers a last-ditch plan to save it.

Bratislava 2. augusta (Teraz.sk) – Šanca na obnovenie spoločných rokovaní slovenského a českého vládneho kabinetu po jesenných parlamentných voľbách v Českej republike tu je. V TASR TV to povedal publicista Juraj Hrabko. Reagoval tým na vyjadrenie ministra vnútra Matúša Šutaj Eštoka (Hlas-SD), ktorý uviedol, že bez ohľadu na to, ako české voľby dopadnú, dúfa, že sa po nich podarí tradíciu medzivládnych konzultácií obnoviť. „Šanca je tu vždy, záleží na správaní oboch aktérov. Zatiaľ všetko nasvedčuje tomu, že v Čechách vyhrá Andrej Babiš. V takom prípade by šanca na obnovenie spoločných rokovaní bola, samozrejme, väčšia,“ konštatoval Hrabko. Zároveň však dodal, že samotný fakt formálneho obnovenia spoločných rokovaní by podľa neho automaticky neznamenal, že sa spolupráca oboch krajín dostane na pôvodnú úroveň. „Také, ako bolo predtým, už to nebude,“ odhadol Hrabko, podľa ktorého sa oba štáty od seba v posledných rokoch politicky vzdialili. Dosiahnutie colnej dohody Európskej únie a USA považuje Hrabko za pozitívum. „Ak nemáte dohodu, neviete, čo vás čaká, neviete, čo bude zajtra alebo o týždeň. To brzdí vzťahy, brzdí podnikanie a ekonomika ide dole,“ konštatuje Hrabko. Ani táto dohoda podľa neho nemôže úplne zaručiť, že v budúcnosti nebude colná politika meniť, ale v tejto chvíli je to krok vpred. „Pán Šefčovič to podľa môjho názoru zvládol, musel zladiť požiadavky 27 krajín únie a komunikovať ich s americkými partnermi,“ povedal Hrabko. Kauza ohľadom možného ovplyvnenia parlamentných volieb na Slovensku v roku 2023 bude mať podľa Hrabka pokračovanie najmä v politickej rovine. „Ale nič veľké z toho nebude. Samozrejme, vládna koalícia sa bude snažiť tú tému udržať. Môžu zvolávať parlamentné výbory. Policajti to vyšetrujú, komunikácia s britskou ambasádou beží,“ povedal Hrabko. Kampaň na podporu voličskej účasti mladých ľudí podľa neho nebola tajná a je možné preveriť jej detaily. Vo všeobecnosti sa podľa neho dá zatiaľ povedať len to, že kampaň mohla, ale aj nemusela mať reálny vplyv na volebné výsledky. Otázkou podľa neho je aj to, nakoľko môže táto kauza poznačiť naše vzťahy s Veľkou Britániou. Hrabko poznamenal, že článok, o ktorý sa na svojej tlačovej konferencii oprel premiér Robert Fico (Smer-SD), nespomínal novinárov, hovoril o kampani orientovanej na influencerov. „Bodaj by sa ich mená zverejnili, ale k tomu podľa môjho názoru nepríde,“ odhadol Hrabko, podľa ktorého sa skôr dá očakávať šírenie rôznych dohadov.

Tehillah Niselow speaks to Energy Analyst, Chris YellandSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

President Cyril Ramaphosa said recently the State would spend more than a trillion rand over the next three years on building and repairing infrastructure. It sounds like a lot but it's slightly more than just R300bn a year. Is that it? Public Works Minister Dean MacPherson tells Peter Bruce in this edition of Podcasts from the Edge the R1trn is just what the State has at the ready to spend with private sector partners. If the take-up is strong – across rail, ports, water, health, education -- it could double the State's contribution and get the country to where we are investing the equivalent of more than 25% of our GDP – that finally breaks the growth barrier and gets people working. But government is slow and disjointed and MacPherson wants to see more spending coming through Infrastructure South Africa, which reports to him. Eskom's transmission business, for instance, is buying land for the 14000km of new lines we need. Yet a lot of the land it needs to acquire already belongs to the government. So why pay for it?

South Africa's sluggish economic growth since 2010 has left its citizens 40% poorer than the global average. Osagyefo Mazwai, investment strategist at Investec Wealth & Investment International told BizNews in an interview that the country's GDP per capita decoupled from global peers in 2010, with growth averaging just 1% annually compared to 4.5% for emerging markets. This has resulted in a nominal GDP of R7.4 trillion today, versus a potential R11.5 trillion had growth kept pace. The R5 trillion shortfall in government revenue could have reduced national debt and funded critical infrastructure, like Eskom's R400 billion transmission network expansion. He said key barriers to growth are energy shortages, logistics inefficiencies, crime, and an under-skilled workforce and called for urgent government action to stabilise electricity, improve logistics, reduce crime, and enhance workforce skills and to foster a business-friendly environment with less red tape.

A dozen years after their accelerating exercise in State plunder began, former Transnet and Eskom bosses Brian Molefe and Anoj Singh are back in the spotlight after this week's court appearance. Civic society body OUTA played a major role in accumulating evidence that put them in the dock.

The Boks sent the BaaBaas packing but not without a few boxes of South African wine. Rassie started the season doing Rassie things with Esterhuizen playing flank, while Kolbe continued to embarrass opposition but not as much as O'Mahony getting swindled like Eskom buying an exorbitant dummy from SAFM. In other news, the Junior Sprintboks (sic) sped their way to a dominant scoreline against Aus, and the B&I Lions Forced their way to 50 in Western Australian to kickstart their tour Down Under.

In January 2025, ESKOM, South Africa's electricity monopoly, announced its first round of load-shedding in over ten months. Load shedding basically meaning rolling blackouts to prevent the grid from collapsing. 2024 had been a good year (relatively). Just 83 days of load-shedding. Not too bad after 332 days in 2023, and over 200 days of power cuts in 2022. ESKOM is one of South Africa's biggest companies. It is also arguably its most important. And it is in shambles. In this video, the story of a state-owned electricity monopoly that triggered an energy crisis.
