“Despite tough economic conditions, South Africans are slightly more positive about their personal economic conditions compared with a year ago”, said Anneke Greyling, political analyst at Ipsos Markinor. “Looking at how South Africans evaluate their current economic situation compared with a year ago, we see a slight shift towards a more positive feeling, and the same rings true when asked about the future. However, when we analyse how South Africans evaluate the government’s performance in key economic policy areas, the picture is bleak and the Minister of Finance has his work cut out for him.”
The above are selected results from a nationally representative study conducted by Ipsos Markinor in November 2009. The sample is 3 374 adults of 18 years and older, the coverage is national and the margin of error is between 0.7 and 1.7%. The sample accurately mirrors the South African population.
