To shore up revenue and be able to meet South Africa’s growing spending requirements, the government plans to increase its borrowings – making it difficult to stabilise and reduce its indebtedness, writes Ray Mahlaka for Daily Maverick.

Finance Minister Enoch Godongwana presented the Treasury’s Medium Term Budget Policy Statement in Parliament on November 1, 2023.

The government’s revenue from tax collections has declined since the February 2023 Budget was presented as economic conditions in South Africa have since worsened, pushing it to find new sources of money. To this end, the government plans to increase its borrowing requirements from R515.6-billion to R563.6-billion during the 2023/24 fiscal year, the Medium-Term Budget Policy Statement review documents show.

Video: Hamas attack on Israel: Is this a Life or Death fight for the existence of Israel?
Some South African supporters of Loving Life asked for my opinion of this war in Israel and what it could lead to. This is my analysis of the Middle East and what I think about this war between Israel and Hamas. I also look at the Syrian Civil war and we take a look at ALL the Arab/Muslim nations from Egypt to Iran and what threats they might pose to Israel. I also discuss American and Russian military power in the region. Can the region go nuclear? I go into quite a lot of political and military analysis of this conflict.
