BNIC#2 Dawie Roodt Q&A: “Privatisation by default” - Eskom, Transnet and the rise of the parallel economy

In a brisk, plain-spoken BNIC#2 Q&A, economist Dawie Roodt argues that South Africa's future prosperity won't be engineered by bureaucracy but built outside it—through skills, private capital, and technology that decouples work from place. He frames Bitcoin as an idea (money as a social construct), pours cold water on gold's fundamentals despite recent gains, and pegs the Rand's fair value near 17 on purchasing-power parity—stronger absent political shocks. With SOEs effectively "privatised by default," he backs full concessioning of Eskom and Transnet, urges a shift from credentials to skills, and warns high debt leaves markets vulnerable to external triggers. The ultimate safeguard, he says, is South Africa's democracy—use it to vote out decay and protect the institutions that remain. This BizNews production is brought to you by Brenthurst Wealth.

I don't like this idea David Seymour's pushing of privatising the Interislander ferry service and getting a private operator to run it, instead of KiwiRail. And if I was to sum up why I'm opposed to it as succinctly as I could, it would come down to just two words and one number. State Highway 1. Tell that to the ACT leader and Deputy Prime Minister, though. He's saying the Government doesn't need to own the ferries and that it would make sense for the Government to get its money out of the ferry business and use it to pay off debt or build things like roads. He reckons that history shows that governments are the worst at running businesses, and reckons private operators would do a much better job of owning and operating the ferries. But I think that would be too much of a gamble when you consider that Cook Strait isn't just a stretch of water, it's actually part of State Highway 1. And I wouldn't be happy having two private operators being responsible for getting us across that stretch of it. Because with private operators, they're only in it if there's a buck to be made. Which I don't have a problem with, but we already have one private operator running services on Cook Strait – would you really want to see that become two private operators? Two private operators who would have every right to pull the pin if they decided it wasn't worth their while continuing? Or what if one of them went under? Would you really be happy with one private operator having a monopoly on Cook Strait? Besides which, this talk of privatising the Interislander is just letting KiwiRail off the hook. You ask people in the street, and most will probably tell you that the Interislander service is pretty unreliable. That may or may not be 100 percent true, but I'm certainly not going to say KiwiRail is doing a brilliant job with the ferries. However, instead of talking about selling off the ferries and giving the job to someone else, the Government should be telling KiwiRail to pull its socks up instead. Because the service it provides between Picton and Wellington is an essential service that needs to stay in the Government's hands. I wouldn't even be up for partial privatisation like Air New Zealand, for example. Someone I was talking to was saying that they thought Air New Zealand was a great advertisement for partial privatisation. Saying that even though quite a few people have a beef with the airline in terms of its fares and where it does and doesn't fly to, you can't argue that the airline is a very well-run business. But that still isn't enough to convince me that it would be a good idea for the Government to wash its hands of the Interislander ferry service. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Deputy Prime Minister believes the Government would be better off with the part-privatisation of Interislander ferries. A Treasury paper presented to Cabinet by the Minister for Rail, Winston Peters, says the Government can consider private investment to reduce costs. David Seymour agrees with the idea and says the Government has been far too relaxed with capital. He told Mike Hosking the Government is not a good operator of commercial enterprises, and there's no shortage of evidence for that. Seymour says you have to balance the books, and at the moment the Government owns too many underperforming assets. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

L'émission 28 minutes du 20/11/2024 Face à l'épuisement des ressources naturelles, Philippe Bihouix défend la sobriété Les ingénieurs sont nombreux à penser la crise écologique. Philippe Bihouix en fait partie et publie la bande dessinée “Ressources. Un défi pour l'humanité” (éditions Casterman) avec Vincent Perriot. Selon lui, face à la consommation exponentielle des ressources terrestres, la seule solution est de choisir la sobriété, de produire des objets plus durables et de faire preuve de “techno-discernement”. Un positionnement à l'inverse des cornucopiens, incarnés aujourd'hui par des hommes comme Jeff Bezos ou Elon Musk (que l'on croise dans la bande dessinée). Tous deux rêvent de coloniser l'espace pour permettre à l'humanité de rester sur une voie consumériste.  Grèves à la SNCF : va-t-on vers une privatisation du rail ? Les quatre syndicats des travailleurs de la SNCF ont appelé à une grève de 24 heures à partir de ce jeudi 21 novembre, alors qu'un premier appel à une grève illimitée à partir du 11 décembre avait déjà été formulé par ces mêmes syndicats. Ce potentiel blocage inquiète les usagers, à l'approche des fêtes de fin d'année. Les raisons de ces grèves sont multiples. Celles invoquées par les cheminots concernent le démantèlement de Fret SNCF, leader du transport ferroviaire désormais ouvert à la concurrence et définitivement scindé en deux nouvelles sociétés début 2025. L'autre inquiétude des cheminots concerne la fin du monopole de la SNCF sur le marché du transport de voyageurs. Des lignes comme Paris-Lyon, Marseille-Madrid ou encore Lyon-Barcelone sont assurées par les compagnies italiennes et espagnoles Trenitalia et Renfe. Enfin, Xavier Mauduit nous raconte l'histoire du "Petit Prince" d'Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, livre de fiction le plus traduit au monde et Marie Bonnisseau nous parle de combats de catch qui prennent désormais place dans des églises britanniques pour qu'elles regagnent en popularité.   28 Minutes est le magazine d'actualité d'ARTE, présenté par Elisabeth Quin du lundi au jeudi à 20h05.
