South Africa’s Post Office is about to turn 234 years old; but its future is under serious pressure. In this episode of Number of the Day, Aakash Bramdeo and Rofhiwa Madzena unpack what’s going wrong inside the business rescue process, why funding uncertainty matters, and how changes around reserved postal services and small parcels could hit the Post Office where it hurts most: revenue.
They also zoom out to the human consequences: broken service delivery, a public that’s moved on, and workers who may be left paying the price for years of decline.
