Eugene Brink: New government needed to save SOEs; after de Ruyter's Eskom nightmare

Loading player...
A change of Government is needed to save South Africa’s State-owned Enterprises (SOEs). This after the horror management experience of former Eskom CEO André de Ruyter who tried “every which way to rectify the troubles and the travails that Eskom had and still has”, but did not have the necessary political backing - and failed in the end. That is the opinion of independent political analyst Eugene Brink who guides BizNews viewers through the contents of De Ruyter’s explosive exposé of his time at Eskom. He says, apart from a change in Government, only some form of privatisation would be able to save many of the country's SOEs. - Chris SteynSign up for your early morning brew of the BizNews Insider to keep you up to speed with the content that matters.
