June 21, 2013 Editor 0
Science and Technology Minister Derek Hanekom has hailed the recent opening of the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research’s (CSIR’s) titanium pilot plant as “quite a great moment”. He officially inaugurated the plant on June 7, at the CSIR campus in Pretoria. “What we are doing today is moving from a resources-based economy to a knowledge-based economy, creating high quality jobs,” he highlighted in extemporised remarks, in place of his official keynote address, which he did not deliver, explaining that it simply repeated what previous speakers at the opening function had already said. “We are facing massive economic challenges. Times are tough. We need these giant leaps.”
