Govt, business engagement can save lost jobs, pleads BLSA

She lists the occurrences as improvements in vaccination rates, in that it has been expanded to include those over 35, the arrest of former President Jacob Zuma that signals a working rule of law, the in-principle agreement to sell 51% of South African Airways and positive policy moves such as increasing the licensing-exemption threshold of embedded generation projects to 100 MW.
