Johannesburg - The African National Congress and its alliance partners the South African Communist Party and The Congress of South African Trade Unions are hoping that South African Airways can be turned into a thriving business and remain as the country's national carrier. The alliance secretariat met on Tuesday at Luthuli House where they discussed the Alliance’s common approach pertaining to the restructuring SAA.
In a statement released on Wednesday, national spokesperson for the ANC, Pule Mabe, said the alliance maintained that SAA must be turned around to thrive and kept as the national carrier and serve as the mainstay of the country's domestic aviation industry with successful regional, continental and international routes.
"The alliance Secretariat placed emphasis on ensuring that the rights of workers are fully protected throughout the process," he said. This comes in the wake of SAA being placed into business rescue in December 2019 with both the government and creditors committing to jointly provide R4 billion. Last week, business rescue practitioners Les Matuson and Siviwe Dongwana announced that SAA would no longer fly to several local and international destinations from February 29.
🤣🤣🤣 They hope.
And father Christmas will be funding it
Same for Eskom. Those who can't deliver must be fired immediately. No time fir stupid jokes like Business Rescue. Pravin must be fired & surcharged fir losing the ball on this one. No time to babysit incompetent, entitled quacks.
Which is why it must downsize fools
Which slumberland are these dreamers coming from🤔
SAA is in this mess because of the ANC..comrade deployment is another word for state capture
And how is that going to happen ? They do not have a fucking clue they incompetent thieves. SAA is irrepairable, it owes billions who wants to invest in a coy owing billions ?
Really and Keep the same Pool of Sharks yes
We don’t just close our eyes and when we open them, problems are gone. There must be a real plan
anc and co want a gravy train and gravy plane
And it doesn't matter how much of our money they squander in the process
But the idiots don’t know how. What they prove is that they are stupid because they are focused on non-realistic phantasies.
For as long as the they don't have balls to challenge evergreen contracts, nothing will change
Then it needs to be trimmed down and run like a business not an employment agency
Ideology will be the death of us
I'm waiting for the day when the ANC will be on I blew it program only this time it will be called We blew it,they destroyed every functioning state organization through theft,the only jobs the anc has created are car guards and waste pickers
Odd. Their actions over the last 25 years were aimed at achieving exactly the opposite. Symbiotes don’t kill their hosts. Parasites do.
How exactly
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 they watched it go down mos. Ai
No chance whatsoever with the purveyors of the racist and communist inspired National Democratic Revolution in the vicinity. They break everything they touch.
Because their fat cats families have businesses there
Now then let them do it themselves with their own money.
How Dom can you get?
They must stop looting SAA
Useless alliance....clueless very clueless and always sacrificing workers
We all want to see that, but then SAA must be left alone for the business rescue to run its course. If the airline can indeed be saved - then planning for a bigger future can begin.
Can we hand over SAA to them then and let see how they do it
Lol😂
How? When? Where?

SAA unions head to court to stop job lossesNumsa and Sacca want to stop business rescue practitioners from retrenching staff at the airline, until they have complied with the Labour Relations Act Haha haha. Yes where were you when you were being collectively raked by Dudu myeni? Unions are one of the big causes of South Africa’s economic demise! 'Paint the Model-T any colour you want, as long as it is black!' (Henry Ford). ' 'Business Rescue' SAA if you must, but don't you dare sell SAA, cut jobs & retrench staff, halt salary increases or touch our airline!' (Labour Unions).

Sell 'elitist' SAA - Gwede MantasheAs the controversy over the near-collapse of South African Airways deepens, ANC chair Gwede Mantashe has broken ranks with his party, saying the national carrier must be sold off if it cannot make money. Nobody wants to buy it. Other airlines will just gladly take over the customers. When your roof leaks you dont sell the house, you fix it. Our poor leaders would rather sell SAA than have courage to be ethical and deliver with diligence. If ANC failed ruling SA with merit. The only sensible thing to ever come out of Gweezee’s mouth.
