Orders?!!!
Order other companies aswell please
Then the circus begins
Who in the ANC ever had his own business? How can you advise or demand action from a company if you dont know how business finances work. The vision of a total collapse becomes more clearer everyday. Being just a mr Nobody. But i have a brain and common sense. Unthinkable ANC.
What
If they can't afford the labour, then they can't afford the labour. It's pretty straightforward.
He can't even order a take away
'orders' heheee
Can you be retrenched if you got covid?
Good .... So now he can pay all the peoples
Withdraw lockdown!!!
This flip flopper of note shall retract his own instaction withing 72hrs, we know
I wonder if SATourismOnline minister will order hotels and lodges to withdraw their retrenchment letters?
Haha, politicians in the 1800s would think your policies are backward. Wake up you can't have both lockdown and flourishing economy. Eventually the music stops.
Who owns the mine, Mantashe? When a business is failing, logically you downsize to preserve the company and other jobs, if you don't the company closes and it is a total loss for everyone. How is it that basic logic is not applied
HeidiGiokos They should tell him to get stuffed.
If the mining companies can't cope, can they give back the land and mines to the indigenous people they took it from?
“Orders”
HeidiGiokos 😂😂 🏀s bigger that stomach..... this won’t end well....
So you can't operate fully but you also must keep your entire staff? 🤔
Don't retrech, but we won't open the economy? The mind boggles at the lack of basic common sense. Hoe de fok redeneer jy ?
Since when is he CEO of all the mining companies Have the shareholders appointment him? Or is he just another anc cannibal....
Orders
Withdraw comrade. Withdraw unequ... withdraw uneqivilent.. withdraw unambivalen.. JUST WITHDRAW that motion honourable member! Hau suga man. Jou dronk mampara!
I dont think we can afford to bailout the mining companies. Its not like we are a socialist state that can print $2 trillion! ...
Gweezy doesn't get to order mining companies to do anything, actually.
Who the fuck does he think he is?
😂😂😂😂 udakiwe GwedeMantashe1
Killing the economy and expecting businesses not to react. Idiots. GwedeMantashe1 CyrilRamaphosa
How on God's green earth can any business operate at 50% & still keep 100% of its employees? I do not need to ask if these ppl are insane, I already know they're INSANE!
While parliament thought carrying us by the nuts for more than 50 days under lockdown was good for everyone ,they forgot how ss of the power they have dealing with the aftermath. Only people screwed here are citizens who r low income earners.... poverty will strike soon.
My confusion is, why only mining companies? 🤔
Orders?!!! Must be confusing a corporate boardroom table with the Nando’s order counter!
GwedeMantashe1 doesn't know anything about running a small business, nevermind a big mining company
Regulate that submission Minister by introducing retrenchment fines 🤷🏽♀️😅
Why must they? Will the rest of South African company also be told to hold off with retrenchments.?
Can he order the economy to run?
When i got fired why didnt mantashe overrule my boss? Pfft
Siri.... why do all state owned entities fail completely?
You can’t have it both ways Mantashe. Populist tendencies won’t help.
They must withdraw those letters with immediate effect.
Because money grows on trees.
🤣🤣🤣
If they have a good reason to retrench yes they can.unless if the government have the money to bail them out.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Y cant mines own by government once
In the middle of 1 of the hardest times in SA....and companies want to retrench the only people that made them who they are🤔....then I think these are companies that should close down permanently because they have no regards to our workforce 🤬
Imagine... government telling a business it can’t fire its employees because of the system created by government. This is why failing SOEs will always be indefinite failing SOEs
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣These clowns
Hahaha
