Business Report
•20 Aug 2007
MANYI MUST RETRACT REMARK AND BE SEVERELY
REPRIMANDED
Given the monumental suffering and plight of Zimbabweans as a result of the economic
meltdown that has occurred in their country, it beggars belief that the Employment Equity
Commission chairman, Jimmy Manyi, can be so irresponsible as to state that if black
advancement in the workplace did not become equitable,' black militancy in South Africa
could make ' Zimbabwe look like a Sunday picnic' ( Business Report, August 19).
At a time when millions of Zimbabweans have been reduced to refugee status because of the
lunatic lengths to which Robert Mugabe has gone so as to entrench his grip on power, the
likes of Manyi should be acutely conscious of the role which minorites play in the economies
of Southern Africa. The consequences of Mugabe's illegal removal of 4,000 white farmers
from their farms has effectively destroyed Zimbabwe's economy. Those hardest hit have
been blacks.
Who, then, does Manyi think he is fooling with his threatening rhetoric ?
If whites are marginalised, it will be to the detriment of South Africa's economy and the
biggest losers will be blacks. Zimbabwe's experience proves that.
Unless Manyi retracts his shocking threat and is severely reprimanded, the scenario he has
sketched constitutes a sword of Damocles which can herald only economic decline.
