Dear Editor
Congratulations, Congratulations, Congratulations to Bayerische Motorenwerke [Bavarian Motor Works] on its 50th Anniversary in South Africa.
I am still advocating for a Mini plant to be established in the Coega Special Economic Zone [SEZ] primarily for Pan African and Western Asia Exports; akin to my proposal of an independent Caterpillar [CAT] Africa establishment that would be detached from the currently paralysing Barlowold conduit.
After writing to BMW S.A’s Rosslyn for three times in the past 25 years, at the very least, to share Expansionary Ideas which were never acknowledged, it confirmed my speculation that it is not what you know that matters, but who you know.
That is understandable though, as there is no one with a Kama surname that has “struggle credentials” and, obviously, who is White … as per apparent Clout requirement during the CODESA [Congress for a Democratic South Africa] Directives and/or Resolutions of yesteryear.
Regards
