I agree.. --- with you @Simataa, the region needs a stable South Africa. For us in Botswana, the economic dependence was painfully felt during the pandemic lockdowns when suddenly there was worry about food supplies, fuel and even medical supplies. I take it that this was a lesson for us to reinforce our efforts for economic independence which can be achieved through a strategic economic diplomacy drive. BUT, one has to admit that it will take a while for most countries in the SADC to reach that level of economic self sufficiency.
