To build a pyramid, remain on top - one must ringfence, discard rights & Slavedrive

Sisulu told parliament on Monday that building contractors would work 24 hours, seven days a week, to accelerate construction.
InternAfrica will start with this. Being experienced in the field of contracting to government.

I don't think that there is any law in our country that would support such harsh working hours akin to slavedriving. As the CCMA does not really have say over government and it's contractors they may very well get away with this slave driving, while the 'contracting' firm makes a big fat package.

As InternAfrica as demonstrated over the past 2 years, these fat packages tend to include people close to the pyramid structure.

The SA Housing Pyramid...

Sisulu said the national department of housing, as "the top of the pyramid" could not jump over a (provincial) sphere to engage with the city.
The tri-party dance 6 legs - 6 feet - 3 heads - no can tango.

The Short Term Memory - WUF3?

Sisulu declined to comment on the issue last week, because of the dispute with the provincial government.

She did however say, in a interview, that she was "disconcerted" that the city had not taken time to understand the complexities of the project before requesting forensic audits of contracts that were signed for phase one. - Cape Times

InternAfrica has been off line and will bring comment to this!
