-- "Investigators have said there was rampant corruption and mismanagement at some of South Africa’s biggest state-owned businesses between 2009 and 2018. A report last week said that more than $7 billion may have been lost to graft at some of those state-owned companies, including PRASA." --
And corruption isn't their biggest problem...
-- "As if a public health crisis isn't enough, Nelson Mandela's post-apartheid dream state also has a homicide rate that would stupefy Heinrich Himmler. Incredibly, it actually declined to around 18,000 homicides between March 2004 and April 2005." --
And it hasn't got any better since then.
