by Nicol Degli Innocenti “There are plenty of jobs available here and financial services is a particularly interesting and skills-deprived sector,” says Rod Maxwell of SA Migration International. “Unfortunately there is little awareness abroad, even among employment consultants, of how easy it is to find a job here.” The days of
South Africa pushing for ‘black economic empowerment’ at
all costs, in an understandable effort to redress the inequities of the
apartheid past, are long gone. The “South
Africans first” policy
remains, but it has become more flexible and, above all, more
realistic. Government has admitted that it needs foreign skills if it
is to meet its growth objectives. Now more than
ever, with a massive infrastructure- building programme
underway and the crucial 2010 football World Cup looming on the
horizon, South Africa wants to shed its image of a ‘fortress’ built to
keep foreigners out. The permit is open-ended and remains valid for as long as the person is employed. The quota is reviewed and published once a year. In 2008 it applied to 35,000 people, but this year expectations are that it will be significantly higher. “In
fact the department of Labour is always trying to limit the number of
foreign workers, the minister of Trade and Industry is always trying to
push for more permits for foreigners and Home Affairs is caught in the
middle. But there is a growing recognition of the huge skills
shortages, so an increase of the quota is both likely and welcome.” 10. May 2009 by Phumza Macanda Zuma
faces pressure to appoint effective ministers who can deliver on
his ruling ANC's promises to tackle widespread poverty, crime and AIDS,
and create jobs. Zuma
won a wide mandate in the ruling African National Congress' (ANC)
April 22 landslide election victory. His toughest task may be balancing
the interests of unions and communists who helped him rise to the top
against those of investors who fear he will steer the economy to the
left. The

Gorton South Africa has always had something of a skills shortage, a need for people with valuable skills and knowledge. Well, if nothing else, the crisis is presenting us with a chance to attract such people from all over the world. When the crisis was in its genesis, we had a lack of skills leading to our water being poisoned, cholera spreading throughout South Africa and Eskom needing to boost its green power generation while reducing the pollution from its coal-powered plants. With
global companies slashing jobs, some of them here in South Africa,
such valuable skills are now available. Legend has it that an ancient civilisation from North Africa journeyed South to build a palace for their much-loved King. They stopped in long-extinguished volcano crater – a veritable cradle of life. A place where weird and wonderful creatures, both great and small, roamed free amidst glittering streams and dreamy waterfalls. Here, they built a magnificent palace to befit the surroundings; their King was well-pleased. And so, the palace served as the spiritual centre of their vast empire until an earthquake reduced it to ruins. Now,
restored in form and rejuvenated
in
spirit, The Palace of
the Lost City is a modern day marvel that will
make your journey, legendary.
