Ramaphosa and Gordhan: team SA

Ramaphosa and Gordhan: team SA at World Economic Forum 2017

Mzansi’s clearly putting its best foot forward, with deputy President Cyril Ramaphosa and finance minister Pravin Gordhan representing us at #WEF2017.

Ramaphosa and Gordhan: team SA

Look, if you’re going to pick two South African politicians to speak at the World Economic Forum it’s these guys.

WEF2017 will see Cyril Ramaphosa chatting about energy in Africa and how the continent’s needs will be changing in the coming years; with Gordhan speaking about the performance of the US Dollar and how this will impact on emerging economies.

Their respective speeches will also give team SA the opportunity to punt the country and possibly allay fears surrounding the current state of the ANC-run government and expected instability as the succession debate heats up.
