Is that his priority? Rather how to stimulate and get the economy going, create jobs. After all with 42% unemployment imported second hand cars must hardly be a big deal! Get real Mr Minister
Why now? He was alerted about this in 2018.
Out of cropped pants into second hand cars😂
Has this man got nothing better to do whilst SA falls apart?
Another 'let us re-arrange the deck chairs on the Titanic' exercise.... ' Except all the deck chairs were stolen.
Mr Slops....
So just another distraction while SAA and Eskom go down in flames. Tourism continues to be affected. Unemployment rises, crime rises but let us all focus second hand cars. I assume all matriculating students will pass with flying colours again? Ignore the Bloomberg report. Iies?
