South Africa’s deepening economic woes and rising unemployment could be helped through a radical intervention by Chinese enterprises that operate locally.

This emerged during a well-attended Job Fair hosted by South Africa-China Economy and Trade Associations in Midrand, Johannesburg. The Job Fair is aimed at promoting employment opportunities for young South Africans by Chinese companies investing in South Africa.

SA’s Minister of Employment and Labour Thulas Nxesi also delivered a keynote speech on behalf of President Cyril Ramaphosa, who pulled out of the event due to unforeseen pressing matters that include the deadly floods in KwaZulu-Natal. He told the delegates that SA was constantly in search for new avenues of cooperation. “Our belief as Dirco is that China remains reliable in various spheres of multilateralism. The economic diplomacy between us will enhance inclusivity in prosperity towards AU Agenda 2063,” Botes said.

The exciting news was also that the Chinese companies and enterprises participating in the Job Fair have already advertised job opportunities. “I hope that many young South Africans would embrace these opportunities that are being offered by the Chinese Business Community,” Botes said. He added: “Chinese-invested enterprises here actively fulfil their social responsibilities, follow local laws and regulations and support South Africa’s socio-economic development.”
