While it was business as usual for Ebrahim Rasool yesterday, news of his dismissal sent shockwaves around the country, and businesses fear the effect it will have on the local economy.
Janine Myburgh, chairperson of the Western Cape Chamber of Commerce of South Africa, said the business community was worried about what impact the uncertainty of Rasool’s future would have on the province’s economy.
“Any uncertainty affects our economy. At present, the Western Cape does not know who its Premier is going to be and any uncertainty is bound to have negative effects on our economy.”
Myburgh also said the decision for the new Premier should be made rather sooner than later.
