The department of public enterprises has just informed FTW that director-general, Portia Molefe, has resigned from her post after five years of service, to pursue other interests. She will serve three months’ notice and will leave the department at the end of November, the department added. Molefe has certainly not left under a cloud. Exactly the opposite, according to the minister, who said: “Her insight into national economic imperatives, both at an enterprise and national level, has driven the departments’ renewed focus on the stateowned enterprises (SOE) as vehicles for industrial development and economic growth.” No information is yet available on Molefe’s replacement as director-general.
