Die ekonomie minuut episodes

August 22, 2023 Die Brics beraad gaan oor die ekonomie, maar op 'n ander manier as wat ons dink
Ekonome is dit eens dat die Brics beraad dalk klink of dit oor die ekonomie gaan, maar eintlik gaan dit oor politiek. Hier is ook my 2 sent.

August 21, 2023 Die politieke ekonomie van die Veelparty Handves
Hierdie week se ekonomiese nuus gaan oorheers word deur die Brics beraad. As mens dink aan die uitdagings wat ons in die gesig staar wonder ek hoeveel van hulle deur die Brics lande opgelos kan word. Dus wil ek eerder iets sê oor verlede week se groot saamtrek van sewe opposisie partye en die Veelpartyhandves vir
Suid-Afrika.

August 21, 2023 The political economy of the Multiparty Charter
This week's Brics summit will dominate economic news. When you think about the challenges we face, I wonder how many of them can be solved by the Brics countries. So I would rather say something about last week's big summit of seven opposition parties and the Multiparty Charter for South Africa.

August 18, 2023 Die impak van 'n ekonomiese krisis (Sri Lanka weergawe)
In Suid-Afrika praat ons maklik van ŉ ekonomiese krisis, maar wat gebeur wanneer ŉ land nie meer buitelandse skuld kan terugbetaal nie en inflasie bo 70% draai? In Sri Lanka kry jy nie meer poeiermelk vir jou tee nie.

August 18, 2023 The impact of an economic crisis (Sri Lankan edition)
In South Africa we easily talk about an economic crisis, but what happens when a country can no longer repay foreign debt and inflation runs above 70%? In Sri Lanka you no longer get powdered milk for your tea.
