SA wants Guptas to pay for their part in the state-capture saga, but whether Emirates will extradite them is another matter

Posted on Leave a comment

There is no truth in the allegations that a delegation from South Africa is to the Emirates and will return with the Guptas.

It has been confirmed that a delegation has indeed travelled to the United Arab Emirates to negotiate the possibility of the extradition of the Guptas, but it may take months before the extradition takes place if the negotiations are carried out successfully.

The delegation, however, is not only focused on the Gupta case, and is said to be discussing other matters with the Emirate government.

Whether negotiations on the Guptas’ extradition will be successful is uncertain, and opinion polls suggest the Guptas may decide to leave the Emirates before a final settlement with South Africa is made.

The delegation of ministers and law enforcement officials is expected to hold talks in Abu Dhabi with representatives of the Emirate government.

Experts told Die Vryburger it creates the impression that Ford tried to shy away from debt recognition for so long before they became prepared to negotiate compensation and expressed the opinion that Ford’s quality control controls are extremely questionable.

Motor industry may be crippled by imminent strikes – unreasonable demands from unions could lead to withdrawal of manufacturers from SA and job losses

Posted on Leave a comment

Strikes could soon paralyze car manufacturers in South Africa if an agreement is not reached with the trade union Numsa soon.

The first round of talks failed, and a second attempt was envisaged, but the demands made by the union left a red light for the future of the industry.

The first round of talks in Port Elisabeth ended in stalemate after the Numsa negotiators demanded a 20% increase.

A next round of negotiations will be held in Pretoria, and the warning has already been heard that another failed round of negotiations will mean a strike that will affect all manufacturers.

The National Union of Metalworkers of SA (Numsa) represents the bulk of workers in the industry, and the Automobile Manufacturers Employers Organization (AMEO) is poised to start a second round next week.

Experts have warned that unreasonable demands by unions could lead to the withdrawal of manufacturers from South Africa, and could move to countries where s
