Sunday evening Finance Minister Tito Mboweni tweeted: Ok.Do
we need a national airline, Maybe that’s the question? Is it?
This notion went and brought about their anger seeing as
this was posted a short while after SAA was granted 10,5 billion additional
funding for business rescue. Some people agreed with this by stating we need a
national airline, a restructured SAA. RSA is a nation state with an air force
which means we need to integrate saturation of domestic civilian expertise into
our defense strategy, Our SoEs fumbled by thinking the things they were built
to subsidize should be profitable.
Many people were not so supportive to this question with
some tweeters bashing or reprimanding Mboweni for seeming incompetent. One
twitter user said, South Africa should instead allow domestic startups to
encourage investment and competition in its aviation industry. Free up the SA
air space and cut down the beaurocracy in the industry. No we don’t. We need to
kick start the economy, lift our ratings from junk status and focus on letting
business people run businesses. Political interference must be kept as far away
as possible. If you don’t even the UIF and pension funds will not be enough.
People will starve from your losses yet you will blame the white people and
apartheid for your catastrophic failures unfortunately that’s the ANC way.
The country although it might need bational airline is not
in the best capacity to take that burden. The economy needs to be worked on
until we are viliable enough.
