Description
In this episode, Business Day deputy editor Tiisetso Motsoeneng speaks to data expert Magnus Rademeyer about the growing debate over South Africa’s true population size. Following Fibretime’s challenge to Stats SA’s latest headcount figures, Rademeyer unpacks why their modelling suggests a much larger population — and what this could mean for planning, resources and the credibility of official statistics.
