I really hope that despite everything its not found that Denel supplied arms to Libya and Syria recently..like it was found not so long ago that they supplied arms to North Korea.Honestly I guess this is a case of where business trumps morals-but then we surely lack that too.By the governments own estimates the misappropriation of public funds is at 20% (its definitely higher) in our country. Its really depressing that too many of the ruling party's politicians tend to line their own pockets and those of their friends and cronys.There are wonderful business opportunities too.Look at the "youth" league president Julias Malema-he's only about 30 years old and barely managed to pass high school.He has no other real qualifications or experience. He's become quite wealthy and owns (or part owns) a few companies-who all bid for government tenders.No surprise that their's complaints about the quality (and completeness) of those company's work. And don't get me started on certain groups like the MK "veterans". Most of the veterans have died and those other members who claim support never even took any action against the apartheid government.They were still in the cradle
