President Jacob Zuma has told the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland that sound macroeconomic policies, an effective regulatory environment and sustained political and social stability continue to make South Africa a candidate for even greater and faster economic growth.
Zuma says the growth will be underpinned by the Fifa Soccer World Cup.
His message was that South Africa was truly ready for business and for football fans from around the globe.

He said the decades of the struggle against apartheid by South Africans, supported by Africa and the world, had yielded results.
