Imiholo yothisha kumele incishiswe ibe uhhafu

Isazi sezomnotho uDawie Roodt sithe imiholo yothisha eNingizimu Afrika kumele incishiswe ibe yingxenye ukuze kwandiswe inani lothisha liphindwe kabili futhi kufuneke amazinga aphezulu okusebenza. URoodt uveze imibono yakhe mayelana nokusebenza kahle kukahulumeni waseNingizimu Afrika kanye nezinsizakalo zomphakathi ngesikhathi ekhuluma no-Ernst Roets engqungqutheleni i-Kragdag.

Uphikisane ngokuthi izisebenzi zikahulumeni zaseNingizimu Afrika zikhokhelwa imali eningi kakhulu, zisebenza kancane, futhi azisebenzi ngempumelelo, okubeka ingcindezi emnothweni. “Izisebenzi zikahulumeni zimele u-3% wabantu baseNingizimu Afrika kodwa zithatha u-17% womnotho ngendlela yemiholo,” kusho yena.

“Inkinga enkulu ngezisebenzi zikahulumeni wukuthi, nakuba empeleni sidinga amaphoyisa amaningi nothisha abaningi,” kusho yena. “Kodwa-ke, kumele bakhokhelwe imali encane kakhulu futhi kulindeleke ukuthi bakhiqize imiphumela engcono kakhulu kunaleyo abayikhiqiza njengamanje.”

“Ngakho-ke, empeleni, kumele unciphise imiholo yabo bonke othisha ibe yingxenye, uphinde kabili inani labo bonke othisha, futhi ulindele okwengeziwe kubo.” URoodt ugcizelele ukuthi othisha abaningi bakhokhelwa kancane kakhulu futhi basebenza ngokweqile, kodwa lokho kuyinto engavamile hhayi isimo esivamile.

“Sekukonke, othisha eNingizimu Afrika bakhokhelwa kakhulu futhi basebenza kancane, futhi bambalwa kakhulu,” kusho yena. “Ngakho-ke, imali eningi akuyona inkinga. Inkinga yangempela ilele kwikhwalithi yomsebenzi okhiqizwayo kanye, yebo, nokuphathwa okungcono.”

Uchaze ukuthi iNingizimu Afrika ichitha imali eningi kwezemfundo, kodwa izinga lemfundo liphakathi kweliphansi kakhulu emhlabeni. “Uma ubeka lokhu kugrafu, ubona ukuthi ukuchitha kwethu imali kuphezulu kakhulu, kodwa izinga lethu liphansi kakhulu. Asisondele emgqeni wama-degree angu-45 lapho amazwe amaningi ekhona,” kusho yena. “Sichitha imali eningi kwezemfundo nakwezinye izinto, kodwa izinga liphansi. Yiyo leyo inkinga yangempela, hhayi imali.”
