I recently made two edits to this page. The first, which I consider more serious, was to add a "neutrality disputed" tag to the sentence on South Africa's Black Economic Empowerment (BEE) policies. The author described the policy as "where powerful connected blacks are granted shares in white-owned business enterprises." This strikes me as clear editorializing. I propose that the phrase be eliminated and replaced with a link to the article on BEE, which describes the policies in more depth and discusses some of the debate around BEE.
Update--after adding that tag on 29 June, I have now removed it on 5 July, as another editor removed the non-neutral passage.Mgllama (talk) 14:02, 5 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Secondly, I requested verification on the last sentence; it would be good to have citations of people saying that Moeletsi would make a better president than Thabo. Mgllama (talk) 15:41, 29 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
In the last paragraph, the author refers to "Zimbabwe-Rhodesia." A state by this name has not existed since 1979, according to Wikipedia. Was Mbeki referring to this state, or does the author mean Zimbabwe? Mgllama (talk) 15:41, 29 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I edited this article for grammar, but it still needs some work, and needs to be expanded. A good biographical box would also be appreciated.
