The Black Business Council challenges Busa’s claim to represent South Africa’s private sector at the G20, accusing them of exclusionary practices.Amid the storm over the Black Business Council expressing concern about Business Unity South Africa “unilaterally” taking the role as the official representative of SA’s private sector in next year’s G20 summit and chair of the Business 20 , experts said yesterday the tension did not augur well.
Ahead of the G20, Busa is coordinating a B20 Cape Town event to take place in February under the theme “Inclusive Growth and Prosperity through Global Cooperation”. It will serve as a platform for business to collaborate and forge partnerships to drive global economic growth.Comprising business leaders from all G20 nations, B20 has the role of developing recommendations covering trade and advancing infrastructure development to be presented to heads of state.
“It is unilateral and unacceptable behaviour that perpetuates the apartheid exclusion of the black majority by those who benefited immensely from apartheid. “There is no way the country can achieve any inclusive growth by perpetually excluding the majority of its citizens,” said Matabane. He called on President Cyril Ramaphosa “to urgently intervene in this matter”.Busa CEO Cas Coovadia refuted claims that the BBC was not consulted, saying Busa began mobilisation efforts in September, when it convened a B20 SA virtual business town hall gathering.
