Cosatu should not support the partial privatisation of state-owned enterprises. Privatisation, in my opinion, is nothing but a sophisticated way of saying black people are incapable and white people must take over, writes Mcebo Dlamini
This is the same Cosatu that has previously been against privatisation because of the obvious ramifications which come with it that are detrimental to the poor.
Privatisation in my opinion is nothing but a sophisticated way of saying black people are incapable and white people must take over. Of course there is no denying that there is corruption that must be dealt with but is the only way of addressing it the removal of the SOEs and placing them in the hands of privately owned companies?But this decision by Cosatu is much deeper because we all know what privatisation actually means.Privatisation in my opinion is nothing but a sophisticated way of saying black people are incapable and white people must take over.
The difference is that when corruption happens there it is draped with all sorts of euphemisms such as collusion, etc. Cosatu, from its inception, has always been guided and anchored by socialist values which lean to leftist politics.
