Ramaphosa says committed to speedy economic reforms

South Africa‘s President Cyril Ramaphosa said on Wednesday the African National Congress-led government will speed up economic reforms to move the country “out of a low growth economic scenario”.

Ramaphosa was speaking to investors in Johannesburg after the ANC was returned to power in last week’s elections but with a reduced majority in parliament.

“We have to embark on the reforms, speed up on them … We are going to ensure that the certainty that investors want is there,” Ramaphosa said.
