Daar was bestendige vooruitgang in swart mense se vordering binne die ekonomie. Hulle eienaarskap van die markkapitalisasie van die JSE het toegeneem van net meer as 3% in 2004 tot byna 5%; en die verhouding van swart mense in die topbestuur het van 24% van die totaal tot 27% toegeneem. Ten spyte hiervan moet ons steeds besorgd bly oor die feit dat hierdie getal steeds bitter laag is.
We have seen steady progress in the advancement of Black people in the economy. From owning just over 3% of the market capitalisation of the JSE in 2004, this has increased to close on to 5%; and the proportion of Blacks in top management has grown from 24% of the total to 27%. Yet we must remain concerned that these figures are still woefully low.
