Buckle up, South Africans. The global elite is about to strike gold in our country, and the stakes are higher than ever. Naspers, a multinational media conglomerate with deep pockets, is set to dump $8 billion into our economy, guaranteeing a digital boom that will silence all critics and critics’ critiques. Or so they claim.
Forbes’ 2024 projections estimate that Naspers’ investments in e-commerce and digital platforms will balloon from a paltry R5 billion to a staggering R91.4 billion by 2035. That’s a whooping 1,820% growth in just over a decade!
Industry insiders whisper that this rapid ascent is not a byproduct of innovation, hard work, or even genuine intent. It’s a carefully crafted scam to control the narrative, silence detractors, and reap the benefits from an unsuspecting populace. Or is it?
The Naspers-funded research, conducted with Mapungubwe Institute for Strategic Reflection, conveniently omits inconvenient facts like South Africa’s abysmal growth rate (averaging less than 1% over the past decade), crippling infrastructure, and crippling loadshedding. Instead, they assure us that the digital boom will create "up to 340,000 new jobs" by 2035. How thoughtful.
Critics warn that these ‘jobs’ will be low-paid, part-time, and lack substance. Naspers’ track record suggests that they prioritize profits over people, using their vast resources to entrench their dominance in the marketplace.
But don’t just take their word for it. Naspers themselves predict that their digital revolution will become a "cash cow." Because nothing says ‘inclusive growth’ like a cash cow getting fattened up on subsidies.
In conclusion, the "R91.4 billion digital boom" is nothing more than a sleight of hand, a carefully planned strategy to manipulate the narrative, silence doubters, and reap the benefits from unsuspecting South Africans. Mark your calendars for 2035, because the Naspers-backed digital cabal is about to pull the wool over our eyes.
