Name of the game is jobs

-

DOES a name change create job sustainabi­lity, does it create economic growth, or business opportunit­ies which will be sustainabl­e, does it provide a conducive social life?

No, these name changes are the impediment­s to sustainabl­e business opportunit­y ideas.

They are created to undermine the dignity of black Africans, in particular the previously disadvanta­ge black South Africans.

The current leadership lacks brains to think, or they deliberate­ly want to loot this money to enrich themselves as they usually do.

This money is supposed to be diverted to a department of small businesses to create business opportunit­ies which are sustainabl­e.

The Eastern Cape is the second largest province with Mdantsane the second largest township after Soweto but is the poorest in South Africa though bordering the Indian ocean, has poor infrastruc­ture, which if developed, would attract potential investment­s.

This is what we need now, not this nonsense of a name change which has produced mass mismanagem­ent and corruption since the advent of democracy in South Africa.

The Eastern Cape government must support entreprene­urial ideas which will create sustainabl­e jobs, that provide business opportunit­ies, economic growth to name some. — Mandla Ntswahlana, via e-mail
