Finance Minister Pravin Gordhan believes the International Monetary Fund should appoint a managing director from a developing country.
He says such a candidate will bring a new perspective that will ensure that the interests of all countries are fully reflected.
Gordhan’s statement came after current IMF head Dominique Strauss-Kahn was arrested on Saturday and formally charged in New York on Monday with seven counts involving sexual assault and attempted rape of a maid in a luxury hotel.
South Africa’s Trevor Manuel’s name is being mentioned as a possible successor.
