Hats off to Jarana for confidence in his capabilities, that he took up Louw on the wager. The upside now is that charity or charities are about to receive a helping hand - thanks to his audacity.

Vuyani Jarana's plan to fix SAA was still bound to crash: Free Market FoundationFree Market Foundation executive director Leon Louw was adamant on Monday that a bet on a turnaround plan for SAA - under CEO Vuyani Jarana who resigned at the weekend - not working was still in place. For some reason I think given enough time Sibongile Sambo could help this SAA company as a CEO. Before any repairs can be done the damage and affected area's must be removed . Face facts, our S.O.E.'S are well and truly screwed. S.A. is f...ked. This will end up a GHOST COUNTRY.
