@WandileSihlobo Part of me feels like we are engaging in this discourse in good faith, and in turn giving it more legitimacy ๐คฆ. In a society where truth doesn't matter ๐, shouldn't we just weather the storm ๐, until they have a new bone to pick ๐คท
@ashtonshudson South Africa Post-apartheid transition was peaceful, but the country did not receive meaningful debt forgiveness, even though the ANC inherited apartheid-era debt.
International support was symbolic and diplomatic, rather than massive financial injections.
@ashtonshudson Some context: Poland received billions in aid and technical support via the European Union accession process and IMF reform programs.
Had over half its foreign debt written off in 1991 via the Paris Club, allowing breathing room to invest domestically.
@SABCNews "Zutobi - The study only included 53 countries out of nearly 200 globally." Can we just stop with this nonsense, there's enough negativity in the country for a lifetime, just pick one, and make us all mad already. โโณ
