Anthea Jeffery: Treasury wants to put Bitcoin behind a border it can't find - Biznews (opens the original)
Read excerpt
National Treasury wants to subject bitcoin and all crypto assets to draconian state controls over the deemed “importing” or “exporting” of digital assets that have no geographical location in any country. Instead of crafting legislation for this purpose – which would be subject to parliamentary scrutiny – the Treasury is trying to introduce these controls via two sets of new rules. These are, firstly, the Draft Capital Flow Management Regulations of 2026 (“the Regulations”) it gazetted for publi
SA has just 13 days of fuel reserves as Gulf oil supply risks rise: Anthea Jeffery - Biznews (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Two key events in the past week put Gulf oil supplies at increased risk and helped push the price of Brent crude back above $100 a barrel. The first was Saudi Arabia’s decision to shut down its East-West crude pipeline following a drone strike. The second was a sudden advance by Iran-aligned Houthi forces in Yemen, who swept south along the Red Sea coast, seizing towns and taking control of strategic islands inside the Bab al-Mandeb Strait.

Turning TVET training into a valued option - Ground News (opens the original)
Read excerpt

Read excerpt
The high costs of “free” university education include dismal student completion and drop-out rates, a steady rise in student debt, and major inefficiency and corruption at the National Student Financial Aid Scheme (NSFAS) charged with paying tuition fees and allowances to more than 550,000 university students in 2026. What can be done to overcome these daunting challenges? One possible solution is to scrap NSFAS. In June 2026 the then deputy minister of higher education and training, the DA’s Dr
Anthea Jeffery: The hidden costs of “free” university education - Biznews (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The African National Congress (ANC), which continues to dominate the Government of National Unity (GNU) despite its reduced voter support, has long been determined to “massify” universities and provide “free” education for poor and working-class students. However, with university completion rates generally poor and student debt steadily rising, it is time to ask what benefits these policies have brought. Since 1994 the number of university students, including those at universities of technology,
