Why is minister is still there talking lies to people false promise

yes .. this thing of working for your money is highly over rated .. let the international community disinvest further .. get out of SA ..

'Community Beneficiation' in mining is what is lacking in all these contracts, & it's to be incorporated in all their licensing processes otherwise it becomes futile to do it at the tail end look at Orkney; Refilwe townships abject poverty while former bosses have Ferrari clubs

Greedy Gwede translation the ANC cadres must eat 🤣🤣🤣🤌🏾🤌🏾🤌🏾

✊️

No shit Sherlock after 30 years, n just before elections.

Why doesn't he give a part of his salary for community development! Their greed knows no measure!

Don't do anything until after 1 May 2024. There is coming a change in the political scenery.

Tell them in the Boardrooms since you are the silent shareholders in as many mines. You are talking to the wrong audience. Talk abt it in the NEC and your party's policy conferences and meetings. We are tired of talk-shops, all we want is leaders who walk the talk.

What about the mine workers who are making that profit, they must keep on suffering so that the Mining companies can look good in the face of government and communities , while silicosis and other diseases are killing Miners who earning peanuts...

Duhhh🙄

These companies pay massive taxes!!! That is their contribution to community development!! Pity your ANC ate all of it!!! VoetsekANC

GwedeMantashe1 you are useless VOETSEK

Why? That's not how Gwede's buddy Putin does things. Doesn't he want Putin to be proud of him.

Are you governing or taking instructions from whites? Gwede

True

Those communities voted ANC not mining companies

Social and Labour Plans? Strengthen it maybe...

He meant that it should be directed to ANC!

Yes but 'they must also be pragmatic. People must also eat a little, from the trough'. Right Minister Gwede Mantashe?

But they pay propirtional taxes and royalties, to the government and then the ANC cadres chow that money mos. Tiger your comment would be valid if the mining companies don't pay royalties and taxes already that are meant to be redistributed by the government but dont

Then expect more mine closing and or layoffs due to business killing policies

Start then with ARM mining company that get spesial treatment

Only waking up now, after the mining companies have racked havoc in the mining communities for decades..... they will be talking about this for another 10yrs 🚮🚮

Manje mining companies are colluding with some of the politicians, police and zama zamas to steal from the ppl.

Give orders you are a minister by the way

Same old song

Like saying people's weight should determine their contribution to the Diabetics Association

GwedeMantashe1 three workers are still trapped inside the container till today. You have failed the people of this country how do you sleep at night?

Same should be said for corruption.. every cent stolen should come out of your pockets you hypocrite

During apartheid you said mining are making a huge profit and taking it to western, now it's democracy, suddenly mines don't make profit..mantase,we're not your toys..mxm

First fix illegal mining my illegal immigrants!!

They must rally behind the implementation of SLP properly and it must be monitored
