Johannesburg - The SA Chamber of Commerce and Industry (Sacci) is encouraged by what it calls the positive tone of President Jacob Zuma's state-of-the-nation address, it said on Friday.
"Sacci is pleased to note that the nine-point plan to ignite growth and create jobs includes actions that it believes will provide the impetus that South Africa so badly needs," Sacci president Vusi Khumalo said in a statement.
"The SME [small and medium-sized enterprises] sector can play a pivotal role in achieving the successful implementation of the initiatives."
