Business Unity South Africa on Thursday called on government to institute a 24-hour curfew in KwaZulu-Natal and Gauteng areas which have been ravaged by looting and protest action.

This was just one of the stringent measures that Busa suggested should be put in place by the government to quell the situation which has left scores of businesses in ruins.An allocation of emergency funds for the call-up of all army reservists nationally and police reservists in KwaZulu-Natal and Gauteng.

“It has massively undermined investor confidence, which will take years to rebuild. The impact on employers and employees is severe and will be significant for some time as businesses rebuild,” Pityana added. He said Busa was extremely anxious about the losses that had been experienced by businesses, and it was important for investors to see that government has a grip on the situation.“The violence is characterised by contagion, as the impunity that is seen in one area emboldens those in other areas,” he said.

“Without clear and dramatic interventions, contagion will continue. We are concerned that the state action to date has been inadequate,” Pityana added. The association indicated it was willing to work with government to identify risk areas and key business infrastructure that needed protection at this time.“The perpetrators must feel the full might of the law. The president needs to pull the entirety of government behind this effort,” Busa added.
