- An economist has warned truck strikes will have a lasting impact on future investments in South Africa.
- Yesterday The N3 near Montrose in the Free State was closed due to the second mass truck protest in a matter of days.
- It is believed that truckers were protesting over the hiring of foreign nationals as truck drivers.
- The Road Freight Association called for the roads to be reopened to traffic with the association's Gavin Kelly condemning the action.
- Chief economist at the Efficient Group, Dawie Roodt, called for political intervention to address the truck strikes.
- Roodt said the truck strikes were politically related and needed government intervention.
- Roodt added that the damage would be seen in losses to future investments and a loss of confidence in South Africa.
