FINANCIAL-services group INN8 expects merger and acquisition activity in the investment platform industry to accelerate as companies seek to bulk up in size and improve earnings. “South Africa has space for two, maybe three, dominant platforms, given the size of assets in the country,’’ INN8 executive Mickey Gambale said. About 400 investment platforms operate in SA. They vary from those targeting boutique asset managers and large asset managers to those seeking to accelerate the development of women. “Not only are there too many platform providers, but a potential global recession, a moribund local economy, and uncertain financial markets deepen the need to consolidate,” Gambale said on Friday. “Platforms cost a significant amount of money to build. It helps if you have a significant scale to make real profits. The South…

DUE TO THE Covid-19 pandemic and the difficult economic times, the quest to remain afloat and competitive in a digitalised world has made digital transformation a hot topic of discussion. However, research indicates that the construction industry has been relatively slow in embracing the opportunities presented by emerging technologies to improve operational excellence, productivity, cost efficiency and customer engagement, and therefore ranks very low in terms of digital maturity. This has led to dissatisfaction among clients, partly due to the fragmented nature of project delivery, labour intensive processes and the apparent difficulty in adopting new technologies. This problem is further exacerbated by the complexity of the construction industry due to competition, availability of resources, logistical problems after the Covid-19 pandemic, and the disruptive nature of technological innovation. Digital transformation is…

IN RESPONSE to the killing of George Floyd by a white policeman in the US, technology’s biggest companies and their leaders made public statements expressing solidarity with black communities. Some promised to address challenges faced by black communities and people in the African continent. Some went further by committing to support black communities with tangible interventions. In 2020 Sundar Pichai, the chief executive of Google’s parent company Alphabet, announced that Google would invest $1 billion (R18.08bn) in Africa over the next five years to support a range of initiatives, from improved connectivity to investment in startups, to help boost Africa’s digital transformation. Last week, Google delivered on some of these promises by announcing their intent to establish a Google Cloud region in South Africa – their first on the…

from page 1 The Facebook group is moderated by a team of volunteers who ensure that all members respect and adhere to Facebook and group rules as they do not promote racism, politics or extremist views, said Ebrahim. “When South Africa was hit with the KZN floods crisis, #Imstaying stepped up. We sorted, boxed, packed groceries, clothing, bedding for days, even in the freezing cold in Gauteng at 2am to make the deadline for the transportation company. “A total of 32 pallets of humanitarian aid was sent in a Superlink, more than 40 tons to be exact, and an additional 13 tons of water to assist destitute people 600km away.” Donors are mostly from Ebrahim’s local community, Lenasia, and surrounding areas. There is records of what was received, from…

The Soul of a Lion, an engaging memoir by Willie Labuschagne, is an exhilarating journey which begins with the young conservationist’s unique experiences with wild animals. From his groundbreaking research on the desert cheetah’s behaviour and ecology to becoming an internationally respected consultant on environmental and wildlife-related issues, he holds the reader’s attention with all the skill of a master storyteller. The numerous occasions when Willie faced potentially life-threatening situations with wild animals are vividly recounted, many of them wryly humorous, while others evoke deep emotion. But not all animal encounters took place in the wild. A significant and poignant encounter that further inspired Willie’s approach to conservation occurred when, during his time as director of the Johannesburg Zoo, he and his family hand-raised a newborn lion cub that had…

AFTER hitting a 10-year mark in the music industry, Innocent Mzimela aims to continue using his music as an instrument of change and empowering people to tap into their greatness. The local artist, affectionately known as TyraQeed, shares details about his epic highs, humanitarian projects and his music career journey. Speaking to The Star TyraQeed reveals that he wants to be known for his tenacity, resilience and his ability to draw people closer with his music. He unpacked his latest offering which he said was based on true love. “My recent release is based on a true love story and it encourages people to love each other unconditionally, love keeps the world going. “Essentially, it gives a feeling of liking somebody, makes (one) miss somebody and gives a longing for…

My sixth book is titled Absent Fathers: A generational curse? South Africa is a fatherless nation. According to research, 2.13 million children are living without their fathers. Black children lead the pack. Yet, there is not much attention paid to the scourge. I’m referring to government, business, media, church and NGOs. This is what motivated me to write the book. Absent fatherhood impacts negatively on children. The effects of the challenge are poor performance at school, identity crisis, anger, trust issues and depression, among others. On the flip side, children who are raised in the presence of a father generally have confidence and self-esteem. They also make an impact in the world. Tennis star Serena and Venus Williams were once number one (Serena) and two (Venus) in the world.…

The Irish-British statesman Edmund Burke once said: “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing”. It is for these reasons that men and women from all faiths recently came together in Tshwane to take a stand on the issue of Israel. They are calling for peace in the Middle East region. Following the transition to democracy in 1994, South Africa branded itself as an ambassador of peace and reconciliation when it took a different approach and chose to forgive the apartheid offenders. There was never a witch-hunt. While racism remains a scourge in our society, the government emphasises the need for us to be tolerant of each other and to embrace our diversity. Whatever our problems, on the whole, South Africa remains…

THERE was a lot of rage, a lot of pain and shock, even much denial. Indeed, you could say that many Formula One fans went through the seven stages of grief when Max Verstappen won his first world drivers’ championship last year. It was a controversial triumph, one decided on the last lap of the last race by a last minute, and at best, dubious decision. Many supporters called for it to be nullified, many more refused to acknowledge that the Dutchman had pipped seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton in the final moments of the race calendar. Even deep into this season, fans and a handful of pundits, rejected the outcome of the 2021 championship, insisting that Hamilton – and not Verstappen – deserved that title. A year later, they…

Air France and aircraft maker Airbus go on trial in Paris today on charges of involuntary manslaughter in the 2009 crash of a flight from Brazil, killing all 228 people aboard. The case focuses on alleged insufficient pilot training and a defective speed monitoring probe, which was quickly replaced on planes worldwide in the months after the accident. Flight AF 447 from Rio de Janeiro to Paris plunged into the Atlantic Ocean during a storm in the early hours of June 1, 2009, when it stalled after entering a zone of strong turbulence. The Airbus A330 was carrying 12 crew members and 216 passengers, including 61 French. It was the carrier’s deadliest crash. Debris was found in the following days but it took nearly two years to locate the bulk…

Hong Kong: A rare pink diamond has sold in Hong Kong for nearly $58 million (R1 billion), setting a record for price per carat paid at auction for any diamond or gemstone, according to Sotheby’s. The 11.15-carat Williamson Pink Star fetched the second-highest price at auction for any jewel, Sotheby’s said on Friday. The winning bid, by an undisclosed buyer from Boca Raton, Florida, was more than twice the estimated $21m sale price. The stone was the second-largest pink diamond to be sold at auction. Pink diamonds are the rarest of the precious gems. |…

THE main advocates of the proposed European Super League are not giving up. Barcelona chief Joan Laporta yesterday followed Real Madrid president Florentino Perez and their Juventus counterpart Andrea Agnelli in defending the project to his club’s supporters. “It’s a competition that’s necessary, to choose our destiny. We, the clubs, will rule,” Laporta said at the club’s annual meeting. “I’m optimistic. Given the inaction of Uefa, regarding the distortion which the financial doping by state-owned clubs generates, we have to react.” Perez led a group of 12 major European clubs into the Super League project in April 2021, but it vanished a few days later after pressure from fans and authorities. Real, Barcelona and Juventus are the only clubs that have tried to keep alive a project that would be…

A DISPUTE between Mpact and major shareholder Caxton took a new turn on Friday when Mpact urged its shareholders not to place “any reliance” on an announcement by Caxton about alleged customers threatening to desert the paper, plastics and recycling group. Mpact said on Friday that claims that the Competition Tribunal had concluded that the commission was “wrong” to refuse to permit Caxton to make a separate merger filing, and that Caxton’s actions are “proof enough that is serious about an offer” was “incorrect.” In June 2021 Caxton had applied to the commission for permission to make a separate filing for a merger, to acquire majority control over Mpact – it had already gained a 34% stake in Caxton. Mpact did not support the merger, and refused to agree to…

TRANSNET plans to open up capacity allocation for emerging miners through the Ports of Gqeberha and Saldanha from April, 2023, when its current long-term contracts come to an end. In a statement, Transnet said it had issued a formal communique to all 10 manganese exporters recording the expiry of current contracts, which are set to wrap up on March 31, 2023. “New contracts will be entered into with new and existing miners, effective from April 1, 2023,” it said. According to Transnet, new contracting and capacity allocation processes have commenced, with the intent to enable the emerging miner to ramp up. “Transnet hopes to increase the current number of emerging miners that have access to rail and port capacity from the current four to 11, through introducing seven new entrants…

ACTRESS Kim Engelbrecht’s, pictured, stellar performance in the local crime series Reyka has earned her a “Best Actress” nod at the 2022 International Emmy Awards. The M-Net’s show also scored a “Best Drama” nomination in the forthcoming International Emmy Awards, set to take place on November 21, in New York City. “The nomination means so much more than you could ever imagine, not just for me but for the industry,” said Engelbrecht during a recent interview with Nick Hamman on 5FM’s 5 Drive. The former Isidingo star said: “I had absolutely no idea that Reyka had even been put forward for a nomination for the International Emmy. I had no idea that the production company had gone that far. “I obviously knew that we were part of something special…

Private prosecution over medical certificate FORMER president Jacob Zuma will be present at the Pietermaritzburg High Court for the private prosecution of criminally accused journalist Karyn Maughan and State prosecutor, advocate Billy Downer SC, today. It is alleged that Maughan, who was helped by Downer, shared and published Zuma’s confidential medical certificate. Spokesperson for the Jacob Gedleyhlekisa Zuma Foundation Mzwanele Manyi confirmed that Zuma will physically attend the court case. “Zuma, a free man, will be in the Pietermaritzburg High Court for the private prosecution of accused number 1, Downer, and accused number 2, Maughan, who both violated s41(6) of the NPA Act,” Manyi said. On Friday, the Department of Correctional Services announced that Zuma was a free man, saying his prison sentence had expired. Zuma was slapped with a…

THE future of the mayor of Ekurhuleni hangs in the balance as opposition forces in the municipal council have come together to ensure she is removed before the end of the month. The Star understands that the programming committee of the City of Ekurhuleni will sit this week to bring a motion of no confidence against Tanya Campbell. The ANC in Ekurhuleni is working with the EFF and have enough numbers to form a government. The two parties have been talking and are planning to govern the East Rand. Campbell has been criticised by the opposition bloc for her inefficiency and poor decision-making. The ANC was also hard on her concerning her stance on energy in the municipality. This comes after her initial rejection of Independent Power Producers. A stance…

A Library to Flee Etienne van Heerden Loot.co.za (R260) In a moment of weakness, lawyer Ian Brand sends out a tweet; it changes his life irrevocably. Thuli Khumalo, Fallist leader on a campus that reeks of petrol and tear gas, must choose between betraying her father and forsaking her principles. Then there’s Bill, the chubby developer of the board game Nkandla and self-proclaimed “Jack Lemkus of Bellville”, he of the firm belief that “the Afrikaner is in injury time”. These colourful characters and many others in cameo roles populate the carnivalesque of the here and now, where the only certainty is that the Mother City’s mysterious crossbow killer will strike again… while trains burn at Cape Town station, Twitter gangs spread suspicion, truck drivers are attacked on national roads, and…

FORMER Skeem Saam actor Mahuma Paul “Bra Paul” Rapetsoa’s legacy was recently celebrated and honoured by his family through a soon-to-be annual commemoration event held at Library Gardens Auditorium in Polokwane. His son Matome Rapetsoa who is the founder of Mahuma Group (Pty)Ltd said he wanted to continue with the rich legacy left by Bra Paul in the entertainment industry. He thrived in radio, acting and arts development in its diverse forms through the success of the Paul Rapetsoa Institute for the Dramatic Arts. “Over the years, he helped mould and guide several artists in Limpopo who rose to prominence. One of these is the late fellow Skeem Saam actor, Charles ‘Big Boy’ Maja.” The actor played the role of Malome Josias in the SABC 1 drama Skeem Saam. Before…

THE world’s automotive sector has moved on and it is time for South Africa and Africa to follow global trends and start doing away with the internal combustion engine to protect the environment, the climate and the economy. Former MEC for public transport and roads infrastructure, Jacob Mamabolo, who has moved to the finance department, said this at the Smart Mobility Africa Summit at the CSIR in Tshwane. He said it was time for South Africa to take its place in the global economy by following global trends. He said it was now clear that the world had moved on from asking whether or not it should be protecting the environment and the climate by using clean alternative sources of energy. “We know that car manufacturers have set themselves targets…

The news that a German tourist has been killed at the Kruger National Park or in its environs has rightly raised concern, no less because of the impact the incident will have on the country’s image. Among others, it will hurt the tourism sector in this case, especially tourists from Germany where the incident made headline news. But there is an element of the tragedy that is disturbing – some powerful political figures are calling for the “prioritisation“ of tourists’ lives. What does this mean? Notwithstanding our understanding that such incidents will affect the country, it is grotesque to suggest that the lives of tourists are more valuable than those of others. Many South Africans and other people living within the borders of the country are killed every day. Why…

The world is experiencing a steep rise in the number of people living with diabetes, a chronic condition of significant public health concern. Many developing countries like South Africa now bear the greatest burden. Diabetes refers to a high level of glucose in the blood. Several factors contribute to diabetes, but obesity and unhealthy lifestyle behaviours are the major drivers. It is a costly disease, and it reduces the quality of life and lifespan, especially if not properly managed. Eleven percent of South African adults now live with diabetes, the highest prevalence in Africa. Most of them have poorly controlled diabetes. And many others are yet to be diagnosed. A lot of people develop complications as a result of poorly controlled diabetes. These include eye problems, kidney disease and cardiovascular…

An overnight Russian missile strike killed at least 12 people in Zaporizhzhia, authorities said yesterday, in the latest deadly attack to hit the southern Ukrainian city that President Volodymyr Zelensky called “absolute evil”. The reports came a day after a key bridge linking Russia with the annexed Crimea peninsula was partially destroyed by an explosion and as the Kremlin replaced its top general amid major battlefield setbacks in Ukraine. Zelensky said 12 people had died and 49 people, including six children, were in hospital after Russian missiles again hit Zaporizhzhia. City council secretary Anatoliy Kurtev, provided a higher death toll of 17. At least 17 people including a child also died when seven Russian missiles hit the centre of the industrial city earlier this week. Regional official Oleksandr Starukh posted…

Los Angeles: Harvey Weinstein’s next sexual assault trial is set to begin today in Los Angeles, almost five years after allegations of sexual misconduct against the Hollywood mogul launched the #MeToo era. The 70-year-old Pulp Fiction producer was already serving 23 years in jail in New York when he was brought across the country last year to face further sex crime charges in a city where he once forged lucrative film deals with A-listers and hoarded Oscars. The trial will begin with the selection of the jury.…

Sydney: Australian emergency services issued flood evacuation orders yesterday for neighbourhoods in Sydney and low-lying areas on the north-western fringes of the state of New South Wales as river levels climbed after days of heavy rain. Officials reported 28 flood rescues over 24 hours in the state, many of them for people who had tried to drive through inundated roads. “It is very dangerous out there on our roads and we are seeing a lot of flash flooding and obviously the rivers are still rising,” the State Emergency Service commissioner Carlene York said. |…

Max Verstappen joined a gilded group of double champions yesterday, completing a rapid rise to eminence with a flourish in Japanese rain at Suzuka, in utter contrast to his acrimonious maiden success in Abu Dhabi last December. There he snatched a controversial last-lap triumph from Lewis Hamilton, depriving the Briton of an unprecedented eighth triumph to land Red Bull’s first championship since Sebastian Vettel completed four in a row in 2013. Mercedes retained their teams’ title for an eighth consecutive season, but that result spelt the end of their Formula One domination. Red Bull had firmly hinted at what lay ahead and in 2022 they delivered a supreme car, capable of winning anywhere and in any conditions, and a more polished and mature version of Formula One’s first Dutch champion.…

Mamelodi Sundowns have all but qualified for the Champions League group stage, while Royal AM’s fate in the CAF Confederation Cup is still up in the air. The two teams played the first legs of their respective qualifiers yesterday as Sundowns drubbed La Passe 7-0, while Royal AM drew 0-0 with Zesco United. The Brazilians will also play the second leg against La Passe of Seychelles at Loftus Versfeld in a week’s time in a quirk of the competition that sets them on track for a hefty aggregate score. Although an easy victory, they will have to build on this momentum going into the group stage if they want to win it and end a six-year continental drought. The closest Sundowns have come to winning the crown since their triumph…

A THIRD union, the Revolutionary Transport Union of South Africa (Retusa) has served Transnet notice to embark on strike, widening the cracks in the country’s logistics and ports as the State utility lost a court interdict and stands accused of refusing to sign picketing rules with the unions. The South African Transport Workers Union (Satawu) has joined the fray as the Commission for Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration (CCMA) today will make a last ditch effort to bridge the gap of labour’s 12% wage demand against Transnet’s 4% tops counter offer. Retusa, which represents 1.5% of workers served Transnet with a regulatory notice to join the strike as reports emerge of total shutdowns at Transnet’s ports, including the waterside and the landside at Durban, Durban Container Terminal Pier 1…

SOUTH Africa will not need any new coal baseload electricity until 2030 if it can get renewable energy online quicker to plug the ongoing power supply deficit. This is the view of Hilton Trollip, an independent consultant in energy research and a research fellow in the Global Risk Governance programme at the University of Cape Town. Trollip’s views are aligned with those of activists and European countries who want to see South Africa accelerate its just energy transition programme and dump fossil fuels for its baseload electricity generation. Speaking at the Heinrich Böll Foundation webinar on the costs of electricity from Koeberg nuclear power station, Trollip said on Friday that South Africa’s baseload electricity was at least 85% dependent on coal power, which was an enormous amount of fossil fuels.…

On the evening of February 10, 1990, a few hours before Nelson Mandela was due to be released from Robben Island, Nkosinathi Innocent Maphumulo’s life changed forever. Maphumulo, 45, better known by his stage name Black Coffee, joined The Diary of A CEO to speak on his journey to becoming one of the most popular and sought-after DJs in the world. The topic of Coffee’s paralysed arm was the most fascinating aspect of the hour-long podcast. “It’s a story that was, for years, hard for me to share,” he said. “I'm in a better space now where I’m able to talk about it.” The DJ went on to explain how that evening, after dinner, his cousins and him heard people marching past their home, singing in celebration of Mandela’s imminent…

from page 1 “Here we are dealing with an unlawful private deal between Downer and Maughan where unfiled and uncommissioned information from the NPA was shared. “Why is it complicated to understand that the law was broken? That medical record is aggravating circumstances but a secondary issue,” Manyi said. Late last month, Maughan filed an urgent application in the Pietermaritzburg High Court asking the court to set aside the private prosecution, but did not succeed, as today she will face the law. Maughan, in the court papers, said Zuma “has no substantial and peculiar interest in the issue of the trial since he has personally suffered no injury as a consequence of the offence he alleges I have committed”. “The summons is a gross abuse of the court process. It…

Khamr – The Makings Of A Waterslams is a true story that maps the author’s experience of living with an alcoholic father and the direct conflict of having to perform a Muslim life that taught him that nearly everything he called home was forbidden. A detailed account from his childhood to early adulthood, Jamil F Khan lays bare the experience of living in a so-called middle-class coloured home in a neighbourhood called Bernadino Heights in Kraaifontein, a suburb to the north of Cape Town. His memories are overwhelmed by the constant discord that was created by the chaos and dysfunction of his alcoholic home and a co-dependent relationship with his mother, while trying to manage the daily routine of his parents keeping up appearances and HIS scholastic excellence. Khan’s memories…

THE SA National Parks (SANParks) has urged tourists to use alternative entrance gates into the Kruger National Park (KNP) after the tragic death of a German visitor to the country. Tragedy struck the tourism sector after a 67-year-old German tourist was shot dead last week in what was believed to have been a botched hijacking. He and three other German tourists were travelling on the Numbi Road en route to the KNP’s Numbi Gate when they were attacked. According to the Department of Tourism, the tourists arrived in the country on September 20, landing at Cape Town International Airport. They stayed in Cape Town for five days, then proceeded to Durban and stayed there for four days. From Durban, they travelled to Drakensberg and stayed there for two nights, and…

An EYE for an eye. That is exactly what the Eskom Mafia deserve as they systematically plunder, steal and wreck the country’s electricity supplier. Decent men and women within the utility do not have the skill set to take on and destroy the vermin that have all but destroyed it. Someone who can take the fight to them, and systematically elimi- nate them is required. Someone who is ruthless, tough, fearless and understands the glutinous, self-serving narcissists. No one better than a reformed strongman like Gayton MacKenzie, a man not to be trifled with. It’s time for an unconventional war to be taken to the Mafia dons, crippling their criminal intentions, never to be seen again. No-Mercy Mackenzie, a new champion of the people!…

IN MY letter to Minister Gwede Mantashe on September 9, 2022, I wrote, “The only short-term solution other than resorting to electricity blackouts is a co-ordinated government effort to improve Eskom’s energy availability factor to at least 72%.” I gave this advice to Minister Gwede Mantashe because the power system stability builds on the laws of physics, not ideology. Alexander Stahel (2022) said: “One such law states that the alternating current that flows through the grid needs to match generation with consumption 525 960 minutes per year because electricity cannot be stored in the grid.” The three dimensions of power system stability are voltage stability, rotor angle stability and frequency stability. Voltage stability is the ability of a power system to maintain a steady acceptable voltage at all buses in…

enraged Iranians braved bullets and tear gas on Saturday, a human rights group said, pressing ahead with protests against clerical rulers facing a relentless popular uprising. After a call for mass demonstrations, security forces shot at protesters and used tear gas in the Kurdish cities of Sanandaj and Saqez, according to the Iranian human rights group Hengaw. The French government advised its nationals visiting Iran to “leave the country as soon as possible”, citing the risk of detention. “All French visitors, including dual nationals, are exposed to a high risk of arrest, arbitrary detention and unfair trial,” the foreign ministry said on its website, adding, “this risk also concerns people making a simple tourist visit”. The foreign ministry went on to warn that “in the event of arrest or detention,…

Vienna: Austrians started voting yesterday in a presidential election expected to return incumbent Alexander Van der Bellen, seen as a beacon of stability as the Alpine EU member struggles with an energy crisis and inflation. Campaigning on a slogan of “clarity”, Van der Bellen is widely tipped to clinch a second mandate, with his six challengers – all men –lagging far behind. “The biggest competitor on Sunday will be the sofa,” the 78-year-old economics professor said on Friday at his last campaign rally, appealing to people to vote. |…

Voters draped in traditional shepherd’s blankets cast their ballots on Friday in parliamentary elections in Lesotho, but observers saw little prospect of an end to the country’s long-running political gridlock. The kingdom has been governed for the past decade by frail and fractious coalitions, with no premier serving out a full five-year term. Some voters walked for kilometres or queued for hours to reach polling booths set up at schools or sometimes under marquees on the grass. Polls closed at 3pm and counting started shortly afterwards. The result is likely to be announced this week. The outgoing government is led by the All Basotho Convention (ABC). But prime pinister Moeketsi Majoro did not seek another term, after being ousted as party head earlier this year. His predecessor, Thomas Thabane, was…

The chords of the Spanish guitar were said to be in tune, producing sweet melodies that had ‘The Ghost’ believing that the glory days are nearer. But are they? That doesn’t seem to be the case for Orlano Pirates, as they are on an unfathomable three-game winless streak in all competitions since the international break. On his arrival in the local top-flight, Spanish coach Jose Riveiro was regarded as a ‘plumber’ thanks to his underwhelming track record in Europe. Riveiro appeared to have turned his detractors into admirers, with his team playing some attractive football, despite struggling up front. As a result, the microscope was on new arrival Bienvenu Eva Nga and senior players Kwame Peprah and Zakhele Lepasa, who scored two goals before the international break. In the hope…
