S.Africa: Electricity: Insane levels of DEBT… just keep growing! – SA weighs taking on Eskom’s R392bn debt, IMF says
Video: What Adolf Hitler said about the Boers
I decided to look in Adolf Hitlers Mein Kampf (My Struggle) to see what he said about the Boers. Few know of his obsession with the Boers when he was a young man. In Mein Kampf I found many references which indicated that Hitler had a knowledge even of the black tribes that live in South Africa.
[Eskom the assholes who are responsible for electricity generation are just piling up debt. Even having a White man running it is not saving them. The debt burden keeps growing and it seems the government is going to let the taxpayers foot the bill in the end! Either way, I don't care. Let it sink. I love it. Sink you anti-White garbage. Jan]
As it seeks to restructure the cash-strapped power utility’s loan obligations, according to the International Monetary Fund.

South Africa’s government is considering taking over part or all of Eskom’s R392 billion debt as it seeks to restructure the cash-strapped power utility’s loan obligations, according to the International Monetary Fund.
Eskom’s financial position is of particular concern and requires a decision on how to address its “unsustainable” debt levels, the Washington-based lender said in a statement published on its website following on-line meetings between its staff and South African officials.
The local authorities are discussing whether the state should assume part or all of the debt upfront or continue making annual transfers of funds to the company, which could be higher than budget estimates, it said.
While shifting Eskom’s debt onto the state’s balance sheet would make the utility financially viable and smooth its planned split into transmission, generation and distribution businesses, it would precipitate a marked deterioration in the nation’s already stretched finances.
Gross government debt amounted to R4.27 trillion at the end of last year, compared with the National Treasury’s November estimate of R4.31 trillion, or 69.9% of gross domestic product, for the current fiscal year.
Surging debt and debt-service costs, the fastest-growing expenditure line item in the budget since 2011, are already key risks to fiscal sustainability and have been compounded by the fallout from the coronavirus pandemic, years of overspending, mismanagement and graft.
Transfers to Eskom averaged about 1% of GDP in the past two fiscal years, while its government-guaranteed loan facility stands at about 6% of GDP, according to the IMF.
The National Treasury didn’t make additional provisions for Eskom in November’s medium-term budget policy statement and Finance Minister Enoch Godongwana suggested that the utility sell some of its coal-fired power stations to reduce its debt burden.
The Treasury didn’t immediately respond to an email from Bloomberg News seeking comment. The government has previously said it may take over some of the utility’s debt, but never suggested that it is considering assuming it in its entirety.

Video: What Hitler tried to teach Germans and ALL Whites
White peoples minds have been so rotted and misled on extremely important questions that I think most whites, and even many National Socialists (NAZIS) dont comprehend some of the lessons Hitler was trying to teach the Germans.
