This was not a “head” decision - based purely on numbers & targets. This was a “heart” decision where pressures on consumer pockets were considered. May not be the best decision for the Rand. But a good one for us the people. Thank you @SAReserveBank MPC #interestratesunchanged 4.3K views · 6 likes · 1 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

South Africa is a country of dualities. At our best, we are marvellous. At our worst, we excel too. Today I experienced SA at its finest. Certifying documents at the Douglasdale police station, prepping for a new chapter, the police wished me well & “prayed” for me. That’s SA🇿🇦😂 33.3K views · 1.5K likes · 148 reposts · 25 replies Open on X →
