I can only imagine how the culture, such as it is, at these SOE's simply fosters this kind of theft. The upper management are appointed not on merit but on their loyalty to the ruling elite who are unashamedly corrupt. Some employees, to their credit saw their actions as unlawful and refused but those higher up, presumably being paid kickbacks from the stolen funds, simply found another way. I so wish I could get my home off the grid  and bid Eskom farewell for good. I was once proud of Eskom and SAA. No more.
