The 2019 edition of the annual investment conference will create 412,000 direct jobs and more indirect jobs.

He wrote that it was not only the figures that mattered, but the difference the investment brought to the material conditions of South Africans.

"It is expected that over the next five years, the investments announced last week will conservatively result in the creation of around 412,000 direct jobs and a significant number of indirect jobs. Ramaphosa said he was particularly pleased with the increase in investment commitments from local businesses.The president said:"Local businesses are the vanguard of our investment drive, and the scale of commitments made shows they have truly stepped up to the challenge. We are immensely encouraged that our home-grown businesses want to be part of not only economic growth, but of advancing an inclusive economy.

Saldanah Bay Arcelo Mital is shedding jobs, planned SAA restructuring also vomes with job losses. Can't Mr President tell all these corporates to halt job cuts and allow him to properly count jobs created at least in one year?

Jobs for lwho exactly!... US South Africans, or these so called investors he keeps calling over our borders? ....

Fool me twice, can’t put the blame on you.

CoruscaKhaya

When, gape re bereka ka di timeframe

Our former President created 500k Imaginary Jobs. Cyril cant even beat that..

Consistent Song of the year🙄

Does he sleep and dream this or he wakes up and start saying today I will lie this way

We’ve all heard “will create jobs” a million times from various ANC presidents but it never turned to “have created jobs”

And how many retrenchments

Really!!?

That's the number of new job seekers in January. Why doesn't he just say he's gonna 'create 5 million' new jobs in the next 2 years? 'We believed' the other guy on the creation of millions of jobs.

Ramaphosa doesn't even have the intelligence to lie convincingly.

Liars

Let's see it happen Mr President

CoruscaKhaya Arcelor Mittal is retrenching after last week’s Thuma Mina PR exercise

Mazwifhi madala-dala

We're tired of dancing for this song 'will', can't it be something that is happening now? We need action...

What did we do to get this fool as a president?

Since 1994 creating jobs...we waited about 26 years and nothing changed,we are not that stupid Petty for those who spent 7years plus in medical n still remain uneployed

412 000 short term jobs out of millions unemployed. MASSIVE shortfall!

😂😂😂😂

Whaaaat?

Temporary? Full-time or letogwana? I will listen on the radio PresidencyZA CyrilRamaphosa

Is investment commitment not that there is investment.

Lol!!!😂

We heard that before.

This one though

🤣🤣😂 numeracy and presidency in SA are inversely proportional shame. Don't announce it before it is established VhoMatamela the society/youth isn't pseudo boet

And it snowed in Upington this afternoon

Creating aftr 24 yrs 😂

It's a Spy Conference from different countries,coming to RSA,they need a bomb we're tired of lies and misinformation,South African youth need Jobs not propaganda

When and how?

PR spin

Lets get real here 412.000 job creation? We will wait and see

During elections this guy came to Alex and said he will build 1mil houses and left. We were sold a big fat lie with this Thuma Mina thug

Does he not get tired of lying ?

babalomkhonto7 Is he referring to this Cowd 1 investment nton nton

We talking creating jobs , do we really need investment money ? How much does our SOE makes in a month ? Ask urself Qs SA.

Yeah ... sure. 🤦🏼‍♀️

How?

Promise, promise and promise fokon spy👆

😓

Where is the 1 000 000 houses in Tembisa ?

This guy doesn’t live in reality

Ramaphosa and unrealistic dreams......

Sure!!!

This was the second investments where are the jobs created by the first?

A lot of wishful thinking.

There is lies, damned lies and statistics. Ramaphosa knows these 'pledges' of investment will only happen if he pulls the ANC onto a decent economic road. But he cannot. No investments and no jobs are the future.

These numbers keeps on changing daily jeerrrrrrr

We have heard so much of that before

Is this talk to keep the rating agencies quiet?

And how many jobs did ' Job Submit' create again 🤔🤔🤔

For South Africans with 'connections' or with qualifications? On the basis of ethinicity or competency? FW de Klerk was quite right in his view that the past 9 years in the RSA were lost and wasted time. The country has rolled backwards due to corruption & nepotism.

😂😂😂😂😂 aibo stop dreaming Ramaphosa

Meanwhile nhi promises us doctors will stay and ewc will protect farm workers and farmers.

Leaders including individuals set themselves targets and goals in life. Aim as high as your scientific calculations from an envisaged economic growth (projects have numbers of employment attached to each before a brick is laid)

Udakiwe Pres

What about the other 9.5 Million Needed?

d4dorothy Pipe dream

This one o Bua maaka

😂. Yes. “That’s how this works”. Meanwhile in the real world Saldana steel shuts down due to government regulated prices 😂. Catch a wake up and shut down useless commissions please. Warning, real hard work ahead.

The only jobs he's creating are for his friends and comrades

This guy is way too overrated

how many jobs did the job summit create? refresh my memory

For one day only then poverty

Yes yes yes.

This guy is always daydreaming....
