Visa turmoil is a major turnoff for foreign companies and is having damaging effects on the country’s economy.
People willing and wanting to work in South Africa are being held back by failing visa services – which is having damaging knock-on effects on business and economic growth in the country, says Busi Mavuso, the CEO of Business Leadership South Africa
“This is appalling. People’s lives are thrown into turmoil, unable to know whether they would be allowed to stay in the country, many consider home.” “We need to give international companies the sense that they are welcome in South Africa and the confidence to plan on investments here without the fear that they will simply be unable to send their people because we cannot manage our own bureaucracy.”It’s not just the challenge of foreign workers being stuck abroad; it is also the rippled effects on families that are left unable to plan a move, said Mavuso.
