What if South Africa could become the next economic powerhouse? In this compelling episode of the Feudal Future Podcast, we’re joined by structural engineer Hügo Krüger and analyst Bheki Mahlobo to unpack South Africa’s political upheaval and its road ahead. For the first time since 1994, the African National Congress (ANC) has lost its majority, leading to a coalition government. This historical shift presents a unique chance for the nation to redefine its political and economic landscape. We’ll explore the potential for South Africa to rise as a key emerging market, thanks to its robust institutions and democratic framework.
