and south africa to increase that investment in the future to the mutual benefit both of south africans and the united kingdom by let's go live to our correspondent in south africa she's in johannesburg for me to miller for me to say mrs may traveling to africa to the african continent for the first time since she's taken office and she's traveling with a rather large business delegation. and very much of the strippers she says are the snooze partnership is based on what she calls shared prosperity and shared security that very much the focus of this tour around africa the reason mays outlined some of the plans that the u.k. is looking at saying that she wants the u.k. to be the biggest g seven investor in africa by twenty twenty two and so far has announced that six of rather five billion dollars will be invested in african countries and a further five billion dollars from private investors that to come later this is very much about renewing ties with africa looking at various african economies but also cementing the relationship that's been established so far the u.k. to some extent h

hello and welcome to the program that hamid south africa's president zuma has vowed to crack down on government corruption and he could end up implicating members of his own party a judicial inquiry into alleged corruption at the top levels of government opened on monday but it doesn't have powers to arrest anybody or seize assets it will examine claims of fraud in the public sector during former president jacob zuma time in office zuma was accused of being under the influence of the wealthy gupta family it's estimated billions of dollars of state funds were stolen using corrupt practices some of the miller reports from johannesburg. the commission of inquiry is expected to hold public hearings until of ember this year and the commission could continue its work for another two years so this is just it's early days in terms of what south africans may find out in terms of these allegations of corruption that reached the highest level former president jacob zuma and just how far he might have been involved in these allegations the role he played with regard to an influential family here

they do not understand that south africa is a very very different country. ok i am going going forward and do you think that the plan as it has been put forth. can be successful. well there are a number of different land reform plans that are under consideration there is a general agreement in south africa on the need for land reform but there is no consensus about how to go about doing it and there are a variety of ways that it can be done for example the government owns substantial amounts of land there is also a substantial amount of land that is felled by tribal trusts land in those two categories is easier much easier to redistribute than land that is in private ownership. in terms of land in private ownership the situation is considerably more complicated than the rhetoric would allow for in south africa as in the united states increasingly large commercial farms are operated by corporations they're not operated by small family farmers again just as there's an important distinction to be may between a land in urban areas and land in rural areas the sho

and south africa to increase that investment in the future to the mutual benefit both of south africans and of the united kingdom. i mean that miller has more details from johannesburg the prime minister is calling this a new partnership with africa she says based on shared prosperity and security now so far she's announced that the u.k. will invest about five billion dollars in african economies and the world follow up with a five further five billion dollars from private investors and the aim here is that the u.k. would want to be the largest g seven investing in africa by twenty twenty two so this trip around the continent is very much about renewing and strengthening ties with african countries african countries not only around their economies but also security and stabilizing individual african countries she said that the stability of these countries will only allow africa to prosper and also in that way benefit the u.k. in terms of trade and investment she's looked at a number of issues ranging from poverty of alleviation as well as migrants traveling to europe saying that africa

will south africa be looking for from the uk in particular?” will south africa be looking for from the uk in particular? i think we might be looking for, hoping for, firm commitments, early days, but particularly forming relationships and deepening relationships and outlining issues in south africa so we can establish good lines of communication and improve lines to enable better business between the countries. she has got a big business delegation with her on her travels, she cannot officially start any trade talks until the uk has formally left the eu, but in terms of what south africa will sell to the uk, what is on the agenda from that point of view? i think south africa as a commodity exporter and obviously that is one of our key strengths, we can look into those areas, agricultural or minerals. but more importantly for us, manufactured goods and particular establishing a good strong manufacturing export base in south africa, we wish to re—industrialise oui’ africa, we wish to re—industrialise our nation and create substantial job

seven investors in south africa that's after brecht's it gets included next march the u.k. is a major export destination for many south african products as is the netherlands zimbabwe japan and yes the united states many question prime minister may's ability to deliver on the south african investment pledge considering the precarious position in which the u.k. finds itself with regard to bracks it and the p.m.'s personal political popularity in the u.k. however south african president cecil ramaphosa who was elected earlier this year is the fifth post apartheid president replacing former president jacob zuma could certainly use the u.k. investment as he is undertaking efforts to ignite the nation's economy after a decade of stagnated growth in july chinese president xi jinping visited south africa and play. fourteen point seven billion dollars of investment in the nation over the years the south african economies begun to move away from once particular will be profitable sectors based upon natural resources those like diamond mining and agriculture and towards where knowled

in south africa equality is enshrined in the last surely. i think we also have to take into context into consideration that violence is embedded in south africa's history right violence comes from we have a long history of violence in this country and to talk about african culture as if this doesn't happen within a context where this country with. this country was while most black people in this country where exposed to white violence and how that into things with masculinity particularly hyper masculinity with poverty and all those things so i don't know how to talk about african culture as if african culture exists on its own it exists within a system that exists within patriarchy and even though we do have all these laws that a supposed to ensure equality this is not happening on the streets people need to be taught that you're not allowed to grab a woman while she's walking on the street you're not allowed to force a woman to have six which is called rape because you feel entitled to have id. you were not in there as well tennyson in new

marching against violence women in south africa protest against a long running problem of gender based puce so what can be done to stop violence against women not just in africa but around the world this is inside story. hello and welcome to the program today with me thousands of women have marched across south africa against gender based violence the demonstrations were organized by a campaign called total shut down south africa has one of the highest rates of violence against women last year alone around seventy thousand women both victims of sexual assault now protest as a calling on the government to take action across generational action if young men are to understand how to behave before we bring in our guests malcolm webb sets up our discussion today from johannesburg. you know land that yankee had just started a degree at rhodes university in south africa when she says she was raped she went for a drink with friends she doesn't remember anything else the following day other people told her that two different men had sex with her it's just really made me angry. really angry and

the president of south africa has begun -- and you may have seen this in the press -- seizing land from his own citizens without compensation because they are the wrong skin color. that is literally the definition of racism. racism is what our elite say they dislike most. donald trump is a racist, they say, but they pay no attention to this at all. in fact, the president is one of barack obama's favorite leaders in the world. in a speech just a few weeks ago, obama praised him, he praises the racist government of south africa and the president by name for "inspiring hope throughout the country." does our current bureaucratic elite agree with that? apparently they do. we called over to the state department for comment on south africa's land seizures, which should be getting worldwide attention because they are immoral, but are getting basically none, and the state department replied with what is honestly an unbelievable statement. we are going to quote it for you at length. here it is.

south africa's government slammed the president in response, tweeting, south africa totally rejects this narrow perception which only seeks to divide our nation and remind us of our colonial past. i want to bring in malcolm naz who worked in public relations in africa. malcolm, this is a nuance issue. what is the actual problem in south africa. >> the actual problem in south africa is an enormous, almost 40%, unemployment rate of the majority of the people in south africa who are the south african blacks. as you know, up until the apartheid, the nation was divided into three classes of people. whites, who are about 80% of the population, coloreds, who are about 10% which is -- >> mixed race. >> -- indian subcontinent, people like that, mixed race. and the ethnic population which is the majority there, the blacks of south africa. they have this enormous unemployment rate, as many as 20 million out of 55 million people that are unemployed or living on basic subsistence in south africa. so, really, it's -- crime in south africa is almost exclusively the domain of the poor and unemployed in
