## Resource

The government is unleashing a R1 trillion infrastructure blitz to slash youth unemployment—46% and counting—by creating jobs, apprenticeships, and skills training across roads, schools, hospitals, and railways. President Cyril Ramaphosa framed it as a national mission: no more blaming outsiders, just fixing inequality, slow growth, and broken services. He’s calling on businesses to hire young talent without waiting for experience—and promising incentives to bridge that gap. This isn’t just about jobs; it’s about building an inclusive economy where young entrepreneurs can thrive and opportunity isn’t reserved for the few.
