South Africa’s gas-fired plans suffer blow
I have seen my fair share of states with byzantine government structures. But none was as mind-numbingly complex as South Africa. A whole rooster of affirmative action plans makes sure that even the tiniest project attracts an army of perceived stakeholders, each with an agenda to make money from the project before the project is even more than an idea. And a plethora of organizations make sure that every whim is considered. I fully expect South Africa to break up into two or more parts.
