South Africa's former ambassador to the US Ebrahim Rasool met with the Department of International Relations and Cooperation yesterday, following his abrupt expulsion from the US. Rasool's diplomatic status was revoked after he linked former US President Donald Trump to white supremacy during a webinar. The Department has confirmed the meeting, but details remain scarce, with a formal report set to be submitted to President Cyril Ramaphosa. President Cyril Ramaphosa now faces the critical task of appointing South Africa's next ambassador to Washington. But who will or who should take the helm? To answer this and more Elvis Presslin spoke to Dr. Oscar van Heerden, Senior Researcher Fellow for African Diplomacy and Leadership at the University of Johannesburg

International Relations and Cooperation Minister Ronald Lamola says it's regrettable that the US has expelled South African ambassador in the US Ebrahim Rasool. US Secretary of State Marco Rubio made the announcement of X and called Rasool a race baiting politician who hates America and President Donald Trump. President Cyril Ramaphosa's office has also called for all relevant and impacted stakeholders to maintain the established diplomatic decorum in their engagement with the matter. To discuss this further Bongiwe Zwane spoke to Risk Analyst and Former South African Diplomat, Dr. Kingsley Makhubela and Senior Research Fellow for the Centre of African Diplomacy and Leadership at the University of Johannesburg, Dr. Oscar van Heerden.

In this podcast, Brigitte Lawler from Swiss4Africa describes the work that their non-profit organization, registered in Bern, Switzerland, is currently doing in South Africa. They work with small NPO's in South Africa to break the cycle of poverty,addressing four of the UN's Sustainable Development Goals. They were founded by 5 members a year ago and at the time of founding, three of its members were based in Switzerland while the other two are on the ground in South Africa.  They work with local communities to identify their greatest needs and implement a 2-pronged approach by fixing the most urgent short-term needs and building sustainable models for the long term to get them to a point of being self-sustainable.  Their self-sustainable model depends on what best suits a particular community. Swiss4Afrika has realised that these models need to have certain elements: Create an ability to generate income / provide resources to the community so they are not reliant on donations. Develops skills for members of the community that they can apply to contribute to their community well-being. These skills should be transferable so that it enables them to be employable outside of the community. Creates employment opportunities and experience building for members while they are living in the community.  One of their communities is called Soli Deo Gloria Care Centre (Soli), based in Lydenburg. Swiss4Afrika formed an alliance with a global organisation called Meals on Wheels, a type of soup kitchen for the frail and poor in the area. With this alliance, they will be able to train people in kitchen skills and provide a much needed service to the local population. Randel van Heerden, Director of Swiss4Afrika. Randel has volunteered in some interesting places around the world. In South Africa he volunteered as a policeman to assist investigations in crimes committed against children. Randel moved to the Philippines with his wife and volunteered to build a school for the poor on a garbage dump in Manila. With others, he assisted in delivering aid to affected people each time a typhoon blew through Manila.  In Guatemala he assisted an NGO called Constru Casa to build homes for the poor.  In the Ivory Coast, Randel headed up a team of volunteers who helped to renovate the Abidjan zoo. He was sponsored by the Swiss and German embassies as well as the Calao Foundation in Luxembourg, the San Diego Zoo in the USA and private donors. In 2022, Randel and his wife moved to Switzerland and started Swiss4Afrika. Brigitte Lawler, Director of Swiss4Afrika. Brigitte Lawler is the founder of Legenda solutions-focused consultancy specializing in business growth, scaling tech companies and transforming business for the digital world. Having worked in more than 30 countries and lived in 4, Brigitte has developed a global perspective to business in different markets. Brigitte is able to draw on experience as a Global Transformation Manager across several business and functional areas, as well as adapting those skills and competencies in the world of Entrepreneurs and Start-Ups. As a founding member and director of a Non-Profit Organisation, Brigitte equally applies her expertise on organizational, process and people development in an effort to alleviate poverty.

On April 3, 2011, a cemetery worker in South Africa stumbled upon an outrageously gruesome scene: large quantities of fresh blood and drag marks leading to a pair of blood-soaked jeans, and beneath that, a naked young adult male, butchered, eviscerated, and dismembered, barely recognizable as human. Cold as ice, this young man had been brutally stabbed and skinned; and when his remains were uncovered, they were missing numerous body parts, including his head. This is the absolutely devastating case of Michael Van Eck, who was murdered and flayed by a depraved woman posing as a romantic interest, Chané van Heerden (known as "The Female Ed Gein"), and her disturbed boyfriend, Maartens van der Merwe. Steeped in pseudo-occult practices and sadistic ritualistic behavior, this savage case is regarded as one of the most heinous murders in South African history. Please listen with caution.

Between 2019 and 2023, groceries went up in price by more than any other common household bill. High hopes were placed on new Grocery Commissioner Pierre van Heerden to boost competition, but he says the current tools are still not enough. In Focus on Politics this week, RNZ's Deputy Political Editor Craig McCulloch digs into the first report card from the Grocery Commissioner - and considers what is to come.

The grocery commissioner Pierre van Heerden is waving a red flag about the state of competition across the country's big supermarkets. The Commission's first report since last year's reforms said competition hasn't improved, with the two major chains - Foodstuffs and Woolworths - still making big bucks at the expense of suppliers and consumers. Those consumers agree with the commissioner: it's not good enough, reporter Lauren Crimp got their reaction.

The Grocery Commissioner says the returns our big supermarkets get on assets is about double what overseas equivalents make. The Commerce Commission's first annual report into the grocery market shows competition hasn't meaningfully improved. It flags increasing margins and high profitability. Pierre van Heerden says overseas grocers make less because they have more competition. "The return on assets is about 11 percent vs 5.5-6 percent overseas." LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

There's a very big call on the supermarkets today - the Grocery Commissioner has accused them of ripping us off. Now, a lot of people will probably agree with that and think - what of it? But there's a difference between you or I feeling ripped off when you're standing in front of the olive oil looking at a price of $30 and someone like the Grocery Commissioner saying it out loud on the radio. It's a very big call - and for someone like him to do that, he's got to have the proof. And he reckons he does. It's been two years since the last Government starting cracking down on supermarkets, but instead of things getting better, they're getting worse. The margins that supermarkets are making off of us are going up, they're not paying their suppliers a hell of a lot more, but they're charging you and I a hell of a lot more. That's the opposite of what's supposed to happen. Which is to say - that crackdown didn't work. And that is no surprise to anyone with half a brain who was watching what the last Government did. The minister was David Clark - yes, the mountain-biker himself - and what he did to fix the grocery system was to set up the Grocery Commissioner, bring in a mandatory code of conduct, put in compulsory unit pricing and forced more transparent loyalty schemes. Who thought that was going to make a difference? It doesn't take a rocket scientist to tell you that wasn't going to change anything. We said on this very show that that ain't gonna change nothing. And here we are - it didn't work. Now I'm not pessimistic about this. Because out of all the things that David the bike rider did that might make a difference - he did set up the Grocery Commissioner. And there is nothing like personal ambition and reputation to motivate someone. And I get the feeling Pierre van Heerden might realise he needs to get this right for his own sake and his own reputation. So I suspect that what comes next might be a bit more promising. And I'm taking heart from the strong language he's used today. But as always... time will tell. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of Automate IT, David van Heerden discusses automating tedious and frustrating tasks in IT. He introduces a workflow automation called Worklets on demand, which can be used with Automox's API and a ticketing system to automate endpoint user tasks. By triggering the repair steps on the endpoint automatically, the need for scheduling, remote desktop control, and manual troubleshooting is eliminated. This automation can be applied to various common troubleshooting tickets, making IT support more efficient.

The Commerce Commission says shoppers are likely to be losing millions of dollars a year due to supermarket pricing errors. Grocery commissioner Pierre van Heerden has called them out for times when the price on the label doesn't match what you end up paying at the counter.  He believes when that happens they need to give you the product for free. Head of research and advocacy at Consumer NZ, Gemma Rasmussen, told Heather du Plessis-Allan it should be the role of the commission to be looking into the pricing discrepancies. She says 65% of shoppers are noticing pricing inaccuracies when they go to the supermarket and about 12% are spotting them frequently.
