No hugging, No touching and no touching of hands. Wearing musks all the time, sanitizing surfaces and observing social distance are the order of the day around the world. That is the new normal that the whole world is subjected to. Are we as a people ready to adapt or are we finding it difficult to adjust? We are having this discussion as we await the South Africa’s Finance Minister’s emergency Budget Speech to be delivered later today. He is expected to table a new financial framework to respond to the coronavirus pandemic which has wreaked havoc on the local economy, an economy which was already in a dire situation prior to the nationwide lockdown.

To help us unpack all these we are joined by
