This is South Africa in 2023 - The price of Corruption and sabotage.
Eskom CEO Andre De Ruyter has survived a murder attempt at his Megawatt Park office in Sunninghill, Johannesburg, where he drank a cup of coffee laced with cyanide. De Ruyter and his executive team have been clamping down and cutting off illicit revenue streams from procurement irregularities, fraud, theft, corruption and maladministration, both within Eskom and by certain of its suppliers and contractors. High levels of criminality and corruption are particularly prevalent in Mpumalanga Province where there is a high concentration of aging and poorly performing Eskom coal-fired power stations. The month of December 2022 was marred by extremely high levels of rolling power cuts throughout South Africa, which is unusual at a time when electricity demand is traditionally at its lowest as the country enters the summer holiday period and festive season.
World food prices fell for a ninth month in a row in December, though they hit their highest level on record for the full year in 2022, UN data showed Friday. Food prices soared to a monthly record high in March after Russia invaded agricultural powerhouse Ukraine, a major supplier of wheat and cooking oil to the world. A Russian naval blockade that prevented Ukrainian grain exports was lifted following a deal in July that was brokered by Turkey and the United Nations. The Food and Agriculture Organization said Friday its price index, which tracks the monthly change in international prices of a basket of food commodities, fell to 132.4 points in December, a 1.9 percent drop from November. It was also one percent lower than in December 2021. But the index was 14.3 percent higher overall in 2022 compared to the previous year as it reached an all-time high of 143.7 points.
Kanola se groei lyk haas onkeerbaar. Ná 2022 se rekordoes verwag bedryfsleiers dat boere vanjaar nóg meer gaan plant — binne perke, want in die Wes-Kaap is daar strawwe mededinging om hektare tussen kanola, koring, gars en voergewasse. Die buro vir voedsel- en landboubeleid (BFAP) skryf die hoë pryse toe aan ’n “kombinasie van hoë energiekoste, groter gebruik van hernubare brandstof, laer voorsiening van palmolie uit Maleisië en ’n daling in sonneblomolie uit die Swartsee-streek”. Die buro verwag dat die pryse in 2023 en 2024 kan daal as boere in die voorste plantolieproduserende lande met groter produksie op hoër pryse reageer, maar nie tot vlakke wat voor die groot styging gegeld het nie.
Suid Afrika se inwoners wat saam wil werk en saam wil bou aan Suid Afrika moes al lankal wakker geword het- Daagliks sien ons in die negatiewe media hoe Suid Afrika stuk vir stuk afgebreek word deur barbare en mense met geen selfrespek, integriteit en menswaarde nie. Dit is Afrika op sy beste- Alles is alreeds na die noorde van Afrika verwoes. Hierdie voorspellings is jare terug al gemaak deur sekere leiers wat insig in die toekoms gehad het. Die ANC regering kyk net na hulle eie sakke en die mense op grondvlak wat afhanklik is van hulle vir stemme. Die regering het en sal nooit die vermoee het om Suid Afrika met sukses te regeer nie. Daagliks sien jy hoe anargie besig is om toe te neem en hoe "mafia" taktiek gebruik word om alles wat daar is te steel en af te breek. Die tyd is NOU- en ons kan nie vir politieke leiers meer kyk nie- dis ons wat hierdie land moet regruk en skoonmaak.

African start-ups raised a record $5.3bn (R91bn) last year, though that may be the high-water mark as a deepening slump in the technology industry reduces the funding pool. While investment in 2022 exceeded the previous year by just $100,000, the number of deals jumped 20% to 964, according to data from Briter Bridges, a market intelligence company.

Ons het die week gesien dat daar 'n nuwe oplewing besig is om te gebeur onder ons mense wat in liefde en vrede wil lewe en wil bou aan ons land Suid Afrika. Ons land se hardwerkende inwoners het genoeg gehad van die regerende party se korrupsie asook die negatiewe nuus en sensasie van Suid Afrika se media. Alles in ingestel op sensasie en negatiewe nuus. Die nuus word oorheers deur die ANC en sy meelopers asook alles wat negatief kan gebeur. Die media is besig om elke mens in Suid Afrika te voer moet 'n vuilgees van alles wat vuil en negatief is. Die media gee erkenning en blootstelling aan mense wat se gees van vernietiging en haat op hulle gesigte gelees kan word. Sosiale media is oorsaak waarom miljoene mense aan depressie lei omdat hulle verslaaf is aan van die gemors wat hulle lees op sosiale media. Alles wat reg was en wat gewerk het en wat ons gebring het waar ons nou is- nou eweskielik verkeerd. Staan vas moenie dat hierdie barbare jou skoon gees bevuil nie. Ons moet ons geloof behou en glo in dit wat ons hier gebring het. Hou jou woord , behou jou inttegriteit- Ons sien so dikwels dat sekere maatskappye se verteenwoordigers ooreenkomstes aangaan wat hulle sommer net so verbreek omdat hulle woord niks werd is nie.
