As one of the hundreds of contractors who worked extremely hard over 30 years ago to help build Kendal Power Station, it is a shame to see it in the state it is today. Artisans are not artisans any more. Come on, guys. Have some pride in your work.

Politicians should be reminded what Pik Botha said years ago about freedom for all: ‘South Africa is like a zebra; irrespective whether you shoot it in the white or black stripe ... the animal will die.

And to you, the media, it’s lekker telling all the bad stories but don’t you think it’s time that you tried to change the news to something that will get things going, like jobs and a better economy. It might put you out of business but could do wonders for poverty and general mayhem. Nick West

How pathetic. Your edition was full of horse racing and legals. Neither of which I am vaguely interested in. You owe me one.

Ed Crocker, your comment betrays such a simplistic and uninformed way of thinking that it beggars belief. Criticise Russia by all means, but do it with some intelligence. Your comment sounds just like how Malema talks about whites. David

It’s about time Gwede ‘Karpower’ Mantashe vacates the seat that doesn’t suit him. Let’s find someone who understands that getting clean power is of the utmost importance. Cut the red tape. Michael S

Seeing that our army cannot defend our strategic points of Eskom, could we not ask the North Korean 5th Brigade to send some assistance?

It is sickening to listen to all the Putin apologists justifying the Ukrainian invasion. Putin is clearly an ‘expansionist’ with dreams of ‘Putin the Great’ (as in Alexander). With Ukraine under his belt, having then about 50% of world wheat and vegetable oil under direct control, the world will be his oyster. He also has lots of oil and natural gas. SA supports this? Please catch a wake-up.
