    it is good to see that the new president mr Zuma has expanded the cabinet into smaaller division to make sure that the service delivery is efficient and all people get served on time,well in time.let our new presdent mr Zuma do his job without us critisizing his abilities while he is still new.lectures and teachers at school used to tell me to write a test even wen i see the mistake and i will complain later after writing.so we will judge our presdent after a year of his tenuture not in 2 days only.msholozi show them what are u capable of and they will praise your name without ending.

    i think the cabinet has a lot of unexcpected changes and many departments but hte question is will this cabinet do better bheki cele being removed as transport minister why ? on my own side i say zuma is not good for presidency but for the fact that he has been democraticaly elected nothing can be done to stop him. Thabo mbeki replaced on position by motlante because of non solid reasons this bring about many questions was his replacement democratic ? the whole country is corrupt. the anc slogan says working together we can do more but the question is are we working together or they just need support.
