South Africa is to vote in an election in which economic divide will be the key issue. We hear from one township looking for change and the chance for a new, better future.
South Africa is to vote in an election in which the country's massive economic divide will be the key issue. Has the ANC been able to convince the electorate that education reforms and economic development will, at last, help those at the very bottom? Matthew Davies visits the township of Bekkersdal, where poverty is clear to see and where local people are keen for change. And he talks to Colin Coleman, managing director of Goldman Sachs South Africa, about the ecoomic challenges ahead for the country.
