If you live in South Africa or just want to keep an eye on what’s happening down there, you’ve landed in the right spot. We pull together the biggest headlines, the most useful analysis and the stories that matter to everyday people. No fluff, just straight‑forward updates you can read over a coffee.
Every morning we highlight the three stories shaping South Africa’s agenda. Politics gets a front seat – from cabinet reshuffles to local council elections – because those decisions affect jobs, taxes and services. In the economy section you’ll find data on inflation, the rand’s moves and big projects like new mining permits or renewable‑energy deals.
Sport fans get quick scores and key moments from rugby, soccer and cricket. We also cover cultural events, such as film festivals in Cape Town or music gigs in Johannesburg, so you never miss a chance to join the conversation. Each story links to deeper analysis if you want more context.
Bookmark our tag page and set a daily reminder – the news updates arrive at 8 am local time, perfect for a quick scan before work. Use the filter buttons to jump straight to politics, business or lifestyle. If you prefer video, click on the ‘watch’ icon next to any headline for short clips that sum up the story in under two minutes.
