The influence on the South African Currency (ZAR) by World perceptions
There is no doubt that the recent weakness of the ZAR was pricipally influenced by the "Jacob Zuma" corruption trial and even whilst there is no doubt that the NPA (National Prosecuting Authority) bungled their case against Zuma, they will re-assemble the charges against Zuma and he will be re-charged with fraud.
The South African judiciary is certainly an independent and just authority and operates within its own autonomy and even if there are a number of weaknesses, it is not corrupt. The court very correctly and justly dismissed the badly prepared Zuma case.
There is no doubt that (after the appeal hearing of) Shabir Sheik and Jacob Zuma will go to jail if found guity of corruption.
South African business supports a just society and frowns on corruption.
