Much has been made of late of the notion of two countries in one. Yet this is one country characterised by combined and uneven development and gross unequal distribution of wealth. A country in which industry, labour and working class communities collide on a daily basis. All dependent on each other yet all treated unequally. A country in which, as in Wentworth, families live amidst unemployment of 50 per cent, the sole bread winner supports up to seven people, asthma rates are double the global average, yet living next to an industry in which it is not unusual for a CEO to earn over R 6 million a year.
