A disgusting title - it comes from the Afrikaans saying "die drol in die drinkwater". The drol is matter floating around in the drinking water which renders the drinking water undrinkable. The drol in this case is Rob and the drinkwater is the FSC. Fin24 ran an article this morning on the status of the FSC
The standoff between bankers’ associations and parties calling for increased empowerment is nowhere near being resolved.
Our drol doesn't want the once empowered, always empowered rule, but the banks do. And therein lies the impasse. It's such a small concession from such a great figure; yet so stoic is he that he will not allow his unblemished record for, amongst other things, understanding how an economy works, to be tarnished by this issue.
Yet he publishes charters that are a joke.
What a mighty man, we are so lucky to have him as our minister of trade and industry.
No wait on a serious note - the banks want the FSC because it's a well balanced document and also they want have to consider the new codes that will kill BEE altogether. Now if Minister Davies played his cards properly he'd have at least one charter that someone's doing something about whilst the rest of the economy rejects his new codes.
Will he, no he won't. He's at the beck and call at the BBC - and bank BEE deals are "money for jam".
