- The party’s plan to reduce crime in the WC by eliminating root causes of poverty and inequality can bridge the stark divide, Notywala says.
- On apartheid spatial planning, Notywala says that there is still a migrant labour system in South Africa, exacerbated by the reliance on taxis as a primary mode of transport.
