Catalyse investment in South Africa’s industrial competitiveness, diversify South Africa’s export markets and build a South Africa that’s strong are three musts that South Africa must grasp with both hands to uplift its economy in the face of geopolitical disruption. South Africans must be laser focused on what we can control to ensure that we can replace markets that we’ve lost.

South Africans can give South Africa more than any foreign government can ever take away – by building South Africa with South African workers and by using all of South Africa’s resources to benefit all South Africans. As we build bigger and faster, public-private partnership must be deployed and advanced with fortitude.
