Several ill-advised decisions by both our current president and his predecessors have resulted in either sovereign credit rating downgrades or falls in the value of the rand, both domestically and as compared with foreign currencies. As a result South Africa is currently borrowing R1,2 billion per day and paying R554 billion per day in interest. Obviously, as the debt grows, so are the repayments. At over 10% in this financial year alone, this is not sustainable.
