    #SHSI Episode 12 - DEAR SOUTH AFRICANS: HERE'S WHY PLANE TICKETS ARE SO EXPENSIVE RIGHT NOW!...

    Dear South Africans, you are not going crazy; airline prices are high; actually, noo no no no, they are very high, and there’s a lot more to it than meets the eye. So BusinessTech ran a study on how local airline prices in South Africa have skyrocketed over the last two years, and let me tell you, I feel like I’ve been vindicated for booking flights and then waking up in the early morning in a cold sweat and I’m going haaah aaah maan, I feel scammed. So the analysis was quite simple; they took the average round-trip flight prices between Johannesburg, Cape Town, and Durban across airlines such as FlySafair, Lift, Airlink, and SAA. The prices for flights were compared in November 2022 and 2024 for dates over the December holidays. Actually, before we get into what the study showed, drop in the comment how you’re going home and how much its going to cost you. Also, maybe tell us how much December flights are costing you this year and also tell us when you booked them. I want to see something.

According to the Wonga Loans' seventh annual Summer Spending Survey, a staggering R284 billion is expected to flow through the economy during this festive period, with the average festive budget among respondents averaging R6,832—up 20% from last year.

    #SHSI Episode 10 - Switzerland Is Rich Rich But There's Also Our Dirty African Money Stashed In Their Banks...

    Switzerland has a dirty little secret that many African’s have wondered about for some time and some have known for a very long time. Why is this country so rich? Switzerland is one of the wealthiest countries in the world, with residents enjoying the highest mean wealth per adult. How is this possible for a small mountainous country with no access to the sea and so few natural resources? The roots of modern Swiss banking institutions are based on the banks created in the early 19th century to finance major construction projects. One of these banks was Kreditanstalt Bank, created by railway baron Alfred Escher. The bank was later rebranded as Credit Suisse and became one of the largest investment banks in the world. And that’s where our story starts. With its banking secrecy laws and favourable financial environment, Switzerland had been the perfect place for African leaders and corrupt corporations and politicians to stash their cash. For a long time, Switzerland was considered a safe haven for the ill-gotten gains of many dictators, not least because of its banking secrecy. In recent years, it has been a leader in fighting dirty money According to World Bank estimates, billions of dollars disappear via the pockets of corrupt government officials in developing countries every year. As one of the biggest offshore financial centres in the world, Switzerland used to be a great hiding place for illicit funds. However, knowing that such a reputation would harm its image, the Swiss government introduced its first law against illicit assets in 1986. Since then, Switzerland has taken a leading role in the freezing and restitution of such funds, the process of which is called asset recovery. Nevertheless, the past keeps on catching up with Switzerland.

    2024/12/10

    #SHSI Episode 9 - WHY IS THE SOUTH AFRICA ARMY FIGHTING IN THE DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF CONGO & MOZAMBIQUE?

    The South African National Defense Forces is currently fighting or actually let me use the correct term, they are engaged in peacekeeping missions in DRC & more recently have started a withdrawal from northern Mozambique, military missions that have and are costing the country billions but there is an important national and regional security reason for this and I want us to discuss it. So In this video even though its going to be a little bit longer than the usual I want you to stick around because you will leave here knowing a little bit more about the world around you. We as South Africa are currently and recently active in two conflict zones an you should probably know a little more about. As of earlier this year, we had around 1495 troops in northern Mozambique fighting even though we are scaling back from fighting an ISIS breakaway insurgency as well as 1200 troops engaged in a peace mission in Eastern DRC That’s 2700 troops in active conflict zones. Even as recently as Oct 31st The South African National Defence Force (SANDF) was allocated an additional R3.6 billion by the finance minister in the latest ‘mini budget’ tabled on Wednesday, but many in the defence industry still feel that our army is underfunded and battling to meet its mandate. So with all that said lets get into nuts and bolts of these conflicts and see what their current state is and also how we are fairing and why they started in the first place.

    #SHSI PODCAST Episode 7 - OZ LUPUWANA | GLOBAL & DOMESTIC LIQUOR INDUSTRY | SAB SALE | PERNOD RICARD | JAMESON..

    So here's something interesting podcast: I got the opportunity to sit down with my brother, Oz Lupuwana, a global marketing manager who has worked for some of the biggest liquor and beverage companies in the world. We started this conversation at the dinner table, and we felt that we needed to record it and share it with you guys. There's a deeper level that needs to be understood by the liquor industry across all its facets, and there's a way that global brands have grown and taken over the SA market. We discuss all that, including clubonomics and how culture and liquor shaped South Africa. I hope you will enjoy this episode. Also, please engage with us and the community in the comments. #southafrica | #liquor #PernodRicard | #whiskey | #Brandy | #tequila | #branding | #marketing | #global | #beer | #ABinBev #SAB #StudentVillage #redbull

    2024/11/19

    #SHSI Episode 6 - SOUTH AFRICA'S POPULATION, ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS & THE COST OF DEPORTATIONS: BUILD THE WALL?

    South Africa’s population has now passed 63 million people, this is according to the latest mid-year population estimates for 2024. Released by Stats SA. But even though we know this number there’s another number that we don’t know and that the number of illegal/ undocumented immigrants that are in the country. That number is crucial in SA starting to address and unpack the illegal immigration problem. But the departments tasked with compiling these numbers aren’t willing to give us clarity. Nor does this seem likely to change. There’s also a socio-economic cost to illegal / undocumented migrants and we need to start understanding that above the noise. Now you, yes you middle class person watching this, I want you to leave your feelings at the door and just listen. Then we can engage in the comments neh.. ok let’s do this. So in this piece, we’re going to try and go down the rabbit hole. Extra Reading: https://www.gtac.gov.za/pepa/wp-conte...

  8. #SHSI Episode 5 - WHY DONALD TRUMP NEEDS TO WIN AGAINST KAMALA HARRIS: AN AFRICAN PERSPECTIVE

    2024/11/05

    #SHSI Episode 5 - WHY DONALD TRUMP NEEDS TO WIN AGAINST KAMALA HARRIS: AN AFRICAN PERSPECTIVE

    Trump's policies for Africa specifically and, by extension, SA, offer better conditions for us to grow as a region and a continent with less interference and also allow us to have choice in who and how we deal with other countries. So in this opinion video, we’re going to look at some parts of the South Africa and Africa relationship with the US and see what a Harris presidency could mean for Africa and what a Trump presidency would mean. Africa has not featured much in foreign policy discussions leading up to the U.S. presidential elections, but the outcome will have a significant impact on African countries and beyond. With regard to the fundamental ideology at the heart of Trump's policies, he believes in isolationism in every respect, America First!. He looks more inward. Which means less time interfering in Africa’s affairs. Unlike his four predecessors, Trump did not visit the continent once during his one term in office. When I say this guy will leave us alone, this is what I mean. The US will withdraw from international affairs should Trump regain the presidency. Look, if Trump wins this election, we will possibly see a kind of reversion back to that earlier period of US foreign policy under Trump. Which will create the conditions for Africa to chart its own path forward. This would be beneficial for many African countries whose internal affairs are disproportionately affected by the current democratic party’s policy of interference on the continent. But what is your take ?
