Hahaha.... it's whooping indeed while mine workers continue to earn slavery salaries, and yet they're the backbone of the south African economy

Unsurprisingly, executives earn more depending on the size of the company, with CEOs at large cap businesses earning an average total guaranteed package of R5.25 million, while CEOs at small cap companies earn an average of R2.77 million. But you never tell South Africans that.

You vote people to be rich not to serve hence will never vote
