South Africa's delegation to the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos, Switzerland, next week will carry a common message: to change perception and rebuild trust in South Africa as an investment destination.
In the face of dwindling foreign investment, financial greylisting, rampant crime, endemic corruption and a perpetually creaking power supply, this may seem like a futile task. Yet, Finance Minister Enoch Godongwana is confident that the delegation will be moving with a common message: South Africa is still the place to invest.
