Some
southern
African
countries
launched
a
free
trade
zone
on
Sunday
aimed
at
giving
the
region
economic
muscle.
Only
11
countries
in
the
14-nation
Southern
African
Development
Community
(SADC)
agreed
to
the
pact,
which
the
region
hopes
will
boost
trade
and
investment
opportunities
and
create
jobs.
The
countries
excluded
from
the
agreement
were
Angola,
the
Democratic
Republic
of
Congo,
and
the
Seychelles.

The
controversial
sale
of
the
landmark
Cape
Town
waterfront,
which
appears
to
include
the
transfer
of
22km
of
coastline
and
90km²
of
sea
to
foreigners,
could
be
a
due-diligence
fiasco
that
could
embarrass
both
Transnet
boss
Maria
Ramos
and
the
new
foreign
owners,
and
pave
the
way
for
a
lawsuit
against
Transnet.
