This prolonged strike will (1) result in Mine Closures; (2) seriously damage the investor confidence in SA; (3) result in the closure of many businesses providing services to the mining industry; (4) have a serious impact on the macro-economic & socio-economic development in SA
Guest#387 Apr 10, 2014, 14:22

I cannot see why these low life's haven't been dismissed long time ago and employed more staff that want to work as there are many people without job that will be more than willing to take the job for the current salary. This is causing innocent children to go hungry and what animals they are to let their own children suffer too.
Guest#390 Apr 10, 2014, 15:43
Stop this unrealistic strike and demands
Guest#391 Apr 10, 2014, 18:31
This is absolutely shocking.
Guest#392 Apr 10, 2014, 20:20
God's Word says that through hard work you will be rewarded. Strike is another way to say "I DO NOT WANT TO WORK - I WANT TO SIT IN THE SUN ALL DAY LONG". Innocent people suffer now. My question: Why can't every one of the 80000 not stand up and walk away from this? WHY??? What stop them?
Guest#393 Apr 10, 2014, 21:03
The irresponsible and self serving union leaders should be stopped in their tracks. Their members are suffering for no believable possibility of an agreement with the crazy demands of salaries from the mines involved. Government should now step in!
Guest#394 Apr 11, 2014, 03:39
Fire the striking forces and employ people that wants to work.
Guest#395 Apr 11, 2014, 04:11
This strike must stop company's around Rustenburg is closing down and people is hungry
Guest#396 Apr 11, 2014, 04:55
In the interest of the most important things amongst others, the strike is not doing anything for all. Just destruction of the best way to go forward as a Rainbow Nation.
Guest#397 Apr 11, 2014, 05:24
While other suffer the union leaders of Armco are still getting a salary, the strikers in the hostels getting food from the mines. make the leaders of Armco also be hungry and the hostel strikers and the strike will end.
Guest#398 Apr 11, 2014, 05:29
People should realise their demands are the cause of them suffering and that has a negative impact on our economy. Why doesn't the government intervene here???

We want to work

According to the people of Kanana (Orkney): Thanks to this behaviour the new owners of Pamotsi (Orkney) are only employing foreigners which is causing additional violence in the KOSH area. Too many jobs were lost with the closer of Buffels, therefore this country can not afford more closers. The government boasts about how many jobs they created but no where do they quote how many jobs were lost due to no intervention and allowing foreigners to take the food out of their voters mouths. Seriously the powers that be are the ones causing the violence, yet innocent people are suffering and being attacked.

Our Government is not protecting the people of this country
