How refreshing it was to read Lungile Mashele’s most recent column (“Good intentions the path to dysfunction, inefficiency,” March 14).She shared how good intentions led Eskom down a path of dysfunction and inefficiency.
I want to read into her conclusions about a future Eskom with a razor-sharp focus on being good at making electricity at the right price and not trying to change the world.
