Following days of rioting and looting in South Africa, reports of South Africans pulling together in communities are becoming common. Joining BizNews to discuss this phenomenon is Wayne Duvenage, the CEO of OUTA (Organisation Undoing Tax Abuse). He comments on the camaraderie seen in afflicted areas, noting that this assistance "is in so many South Africans, coming to the fore in times of disaster and need." Duvenage also notes that now is the time for South Africa to ask why this happened.
