South Africa’s mining investment guru Peter Major has come out all guns blazing against Australian BHP’s “opportunistic” bid for Anglo American. In this powerful interview with BizNews editor Alec Hogg, Major calls on SA’s president and mining minister to step in quickly and promise to reverse legislative mistakes which chased away global investors. Doing so, he says, will save Anglo from BHP’s clutches and turbo-charge the country’s moribund mining sector. Major believes it’s easy to fix - but requires humility and realism from Pretoria. Starting with appeals to an alienated global investment community to stop Wall Street desk jockeys killing SA’s 107 year-old Golden Goose.
