The DA’s Bela fight needs less PR and more consultation: 5 Dec '24 by explain.co.za published on 2024-12-05T14:51:41Z Ke Dezemba, boss! We’re finally in the silly season, and if you’re anywhere in the country currently experiencing this heatwave, we hope you’re staying cool and hydrated. Speaking of cool, do you like your ice fancy? Then Woolies has got you covered. Find out what people had to say about its “private school ice.” Meanwhile, our politics are anything but cool. The DA is pulling PR stunts over the BELA Bill, and President Cyril Ramaphosa isn’t pleased. Over in the land of the (progressively less) free and the home of the (questionably) brave, the incoming president has warned BRICS countries to forget de-dollarisation while the outgoing president has pardoned his son even after promising not to interfere in his case. Back home, we look at snacks we’ve lost, like Tempo and Maltabella. We also examine Minister Thembi Simelane’s redeployment despite calls for her dismissal. Finally, we find God in the machine and explore how the normally sane South Korea was plunged into chaos this week after its president declared martial law for all of six hours. So, let’s dive into your weekly update of empowering and easy-to-understand news, brought to you by Verashni Pillay and the explain.co.za team. 😄 🇸🇺🇧🇸🇨🇷🇮🇧🇪 Remember to share the love. 💫 Tell your friends to sign up: 📩 Email: http://explain.co.za/subscribe 📲 Our new WhatsApp channel: https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Vac06yM8kyyLmOulb80J _Till next time, goodbye from the team_ ✌🏽 Genre News & Politics
