SAA soldiers on without financial backingSunday's deadline extended after promises by the public enterprises department to secure capital from the Treasury to fund operations You ain't got my pernission to do this... Shoot the dead horse if you have to, but I ain't paying for the bullet. Any other company in business rescue would have just been closed down when “real” money dries up. Remember Highveld Steel? The whole SAA business rescue thing is just smoke and mirrors to buy more time. South Africans must choose between saving SAA or ESKOM. We can't eat our cake and still have it. South Africans can still fly Mango, Kulula, British Airways, KLM, Turkish Airways etc. but there is only ONE Eskom. Government must do the RIGHT thing, not the POPULAR thing.
