The Insider
TALKS on constitutional reform in South Africa, now code-named Codesa, may be deadlocked but meetings still have to carry on and that means good business for those who have to accommodate and feed the delegates.
A confidential report says Codesa talks are costing the South African taxpayers about R3 million a month.
It says the major beneficiary of the talks is the World Trade Centre near Jan Smuts Airport which was in financial quagmire before the Codesa talks since only a third of its facilities were being utilised.
Today Codesa uses between 3 000 and 22 000 square metres of the available 32 000 on a regular basis.
Abel Mokibe, Jan Rau and Zithulele Singer were told in no uncertain terms that they were not welcome into the flats because they were black.
