More quotes by Brian Molefe

South Africans must stop consuming only. We need to get into the habit of making things as a country

To put it crudely, Eskom and Nersa are just conduits that extract money from poor South African citizens, who are surviving with minimum starvation wages to give to the rich called mining companies

More importantly it points to the fundamental flaw in the operating model of Eskom

When I was at Transnet, I said South Africa must stop buying trains everywhere. We must manufacture our locomotives
