The Democratic Alliance (DA) has called for policy changes to bring about change to the country's current Broad-based Black Economic Empowerment (B-BBEE) policies of the ANC.
On Monday, the party slammed the current policies, which it said only benefitted a few politically-connected individuals.

Friends, family, and comrades gathered Thursday to pay tribute to the late Kaloli Tsoene, a man widely remembered for his unwavering commitment to unity and compassion.
Known for bridging divides and bringing people together across backgrounds, Kaloli’s legacy as a unifier was at the heart of emotional speeches, songs, and shared memories during the memorial service held in his hometown of Ladybrand’s town hall.
The former ANC Chief Whip at Mantsopa Local Municipality and member of Thabo Mofutsanaya Regional Executive Committee (REC) died earlier this month at the age of 55.
The ANC and its leagues and alliances in the region, including his former ally and friend Tumelo Thebe, paid their respects through the prayer service and songs. They remembered Kaloli as a unifier and a true servant of the people.
“Comrades … Kaloli was a unifier of our movement,” said Thebe, who was a long-time friend and comrade to Kaloli. “Where differences arose within the organisation, Kaloli always knew and understood his role and played a unifier. I loved him for being honest and sticking to his decision, irrespective of how many people agreed with him.”
Another comrade and former colleague, Sylvia Visagie, said he was one of the best products the organisation has produced.
“Many people in this hall can attest that directly or indirectly, Kaloli has played a role in their lives… that includes me. I am proud to have known him and worked with him,” she said.
