President Cyril Ramaphosa says the economy is hungry for people skilled in certain disciplines and “if we are able to address the scourge of unemployment, these skills should be promoted”.Youth unemployment stands at 59.6% and the president encouraged young people to attain skills that maximised their chances of employment and endorsed creativity and innovation.
He said inclusive growth could be only be achieved when more people were working. Candidates with such skills could be assured they would not easily be joining the ranks of the unemployed, said the president.
Cyril, the man without a plan
...So...🙄The youth should be politicians & sell a whole country to be employed, that's the only career that seems to work right now...
Why they cannot even pass 30 perc.. Let's get that up and give gratitude to all not to plunder and break to get wjt they want. But earn and apriciate what they have stop stealing..
They need to learn skills at technical colleges that don’t exist anymore.
Pathetic. Fix the economy, build industries, fix your electricity problems, fix education then there will be much more jobs for the youth.
A good starting point is for the ANC to be voted out. Watch that unemployment rate plummet then.
We need a concomitant change in the education system to support this. Pushing people through the system for the sake of politics has been a huge disservice to our people and the country.
Make candles or steal cables
Just go work for Eskom, they can take another 100k workers and the nation will foot the bill, or just work for the state, another 500k, taxpayers will foot the bill. Yet, no one has to work. Or become a parliamentarian, they just sit and sleep and do nothing.
Start with stop stealing from tax payers.
If he maybe applies his mind to his job we won't sit with 'world class unemployment'... Maybe he should try that instead of offering unsolicited advice.
He is an employment killer. Why even give him any airtime on this topic.
to do what exactly...there are no jobs..SA is knee deep in a recession and it's becoming worse. the ANC sold our country off. majority are worse off. exactly what are they going to do, work for the ANC...there are no jobs
Welele……
There are too little jobs and far too many youths to make any difference. It will get worse because of too much population growth. Ramaphosa is dreaming.
🤣🥴🥴🥴🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😭😭😭😭🙆♂️🙆♀️🙆♀️🙆♀️ old age grant must start at 35 yrs old
Hopefully those young people understand that ramaphosa and his cabinet is responsible for the unemployment, and it's only going to get worse. The anc is a vile criminal filthy disgusting virus.
Unemployed Dr's were marching yesterday is it one of careers not to be persued? La hloleha fela that's it, what did those job summits do mxm useless rich president
VoetsekANC
We have a failing health service ... but doctor's are still unemployed ... that also applies to teacher's ... so don't make statements that are futile
The South African youth is responsible for its own future. Unless they take to the streets, evict and eradicate the employment of illegal foreigners for non-skilled jobs, nothing will change. Social media doesn’t win battles, it can only influence.
To late, should've suggested that before the number of unemployed youth went up, seems like you always coming from behind everytime Mr president, maybe because your legs are and feet are not straight. To be honest there's nothing that you can or did right for this country
This useless man is a Poes! I dont swear to old people. But with this one, I just lose it.
Msunu wakhe
How because the is no electricity no job creation companies are going
The labour laws make it too hard to hire. Try get rid of someone for stealing and you’ll pay when they take you to the CCMA. Employer is always wrong. So sorry. No jobs here.
We need get rid of this useless government
What a joke! “The economy is hungry”. There is a failing economy; failed policies; failing livelihoods because of your ruling party Mr President. So stop selling dreams and start delivering!
Youth unemployment now sits at 59.6%?! Serious intervention really needs to take place. This is really the future of the country.
Pathetic, the country has over thousand unemployed medical Doctors and is saying nothing about them. SIES.
He now speak for the sake of speaking his plan for this country doesn't realy include development of Blacks at all
since from 2019..
Maybe create jobs like a government is supposed to do. When you started seeing the increase of businesses closing at an alarming rate, you should've gone into action. Waiting until things are literally failing and falling apart is the stupidest thing. This bra a kak president
Ramaphosa the youth and most of SA nation are unemployed because u allow illegal immigrants in SA whereby they own shops, have profitable businesses, selling drugs in the main roads of each town. How is it possible for you not to see this, our unemployment rate to be blame on u
What happened to the ICE CREAM guy made it on R300 Social Relief?
Politics is a good career look at how SA Politicians live for doing nothing
Useless article...
This guy is a joke, I tell you. I bet he doesn't know that he's the president of this country. what a privileged bafoon! 😂
So ezi sezifundiwe zithiwani?
NSFAS should only fund those suggested careers.
The President has covered a topic that is often spoken and little gets done to make it real. Public agree CyrilRamaphosa and it is now in the hands of the DBE_SA to make it happen. A master plan covering early stage aptitude assessment through to successful career outcomes.
He is sick this one and a lair
CyrilRamaphosa is right,but he's also disingenuous. SA youth is shut out of jobs by emplors like TAKEALOT who hire foreignrs for non scarce skill work,breaking the law with impunity. Knowing this toothless govt.will do zero. Does Rama bat for his ppl?No.He'd rather shift focus
MSM is our biggest problem after Cyril.
The youth must learn to fry McDonald’s patties.

How about fixing the basics; Better education system = Better opportunities. World-class infrastructure = Efficent Business Basic services = Productive people No corruption = Money for investment
Youth are not the only once who's living with poverty old people are not considered on jobs because of you
Bra Ramsy isnt a business man, there are alot of small businesses that need assistance from equipment to finance,that can hire alot of people. Red tape is the problem as small player have to compete with big fish. Without help from the government.
...let's not forget that zweli mkhize said the skill needed by young people to avoid unemployment is car wash skills. Compare the quality of CR's idea and that of zweli's car wash idea. Mara RET le a bona ne le re gafela?
Qualified Accountants are not working the state is not hiring them
Clueless this dude. 😡
Universities must start courses on presidential banking-mattress and sofas banking system.
Which careers are those? Doctors cant secure employment in our government.
That's careless even to suggest. Eintlik Ramaphosa o tlwaela batho masepa, msunu wa hae!
Ek is so bly om skuldvry te wees, nadat ek met richard1_ray gehandel het, was my lewe gemakliker as voorheen, jy moet hom probeer, ek was nog nooit so gelukkig nie.
