Stephen Grootes discusses with Peter Attard Montalto, Managing Director at Krutham, the potential implications of the US tariffs and the government's response, highlighting the need for strategic diplomatic and trade interventions to mitigate the impact on South Africa's economy.

In other interviews, Consumer ninja, Wendy Knowler, chats about the potential pitfalls of cellphone contracts, particularly the steep penalties for early cancellation and the significant price hikes that can occur after the initial contract period ends, leaving customers facing much higher monthly subscription fees.
