As looting and civil unrest gripped the Gauteng and KwaZulu-Natal provinces, the aviation CEO (like many other selfless South Africans) took it upon himself to assist those in need, flying supplies to Durban in his own planes - and at his own cost.

As South Africa slowly comes to terms with the widespread looting of the past week, there are many explanations given for why this has happened and who is behind it, with fingers pointing in every direction. Some have attributed it to Zulu or 'ethnic mobilisation' and an 'attempted insurrection'. However, political analyst Moeletsi Mbeki rejects these theories, saying they are ghosts that the ANC (and President Cyril Ramaphosa) pull out when the party is in trouble. Mbeki gives an interesting take on the matter and looks at where this could lead, the future of the ANC, and what he discusses with his brother, former President Thabo Mbeki.

Last week’s anarchy left some BizNews community members wondering about the safety of their EasyEquities investments. To address these concerns, BizNews founder Alec Hogg went straight to the source and invited Charles Savage - Purple Group CEO and EasyEquities CEO and founder - to join the BizNews Power Hour. EasyEquities investors can breathe a sigh of relief, and with the number of the platform's customers having surpassed one million - it’s sure to be a collective sigh. Savage explains that with the ‘virtualisation’ of stock ownership - the civil unrest recently experienced in the country poses no risk to offshore investments and money invested with EasyEquities. Savage - a self-proclaimed ‘massive South African bull’ admits that last week ‘was the worst week in his life as a citizen of South Africa.’ While he maintains his belief that South Africa can have a great decade ahead and that the events of last week might be a tipping point for the unification of the country - he states that - if he were in his thirties - his thinking and decisions would be different.
