World Bank top job should be open to all: S.Africa's Gordhan

how amazing these words are ""The World Bank presidency should be open to all nationalities and based on merit"and yet this does not happen in South Africa when applying for a job locally

What are South Africa's contributions to the WB and IMF?

An Alabama redneck in a klan hood holding a buffalo chicken wing for a pen wouldn't do a worse job, and would be hilarious to see on CSPAN2.

OMG what a terrible thought. If what they did to South Africa and its economy as an example of how affairs should be run after the blacks took over, one can only imagine what state the world economy would be in if they had to call the shots. Have a third world banker make global decisions would be like an untrained mechanic fix the problen on your car.

I can just see a black leader of the American IMF...writing checks with my money!

What a joke!!!!! the Chocolates cannot run a tiny country like SA but want to be the head of the world bank. These same jokers advocate killing the people who grow their food, get a freakin clue morons.

Dr. Justin Lin, a Ph.D. holder from University of Chicago, currently a senior VP and Chief Economist at World Bank should be an ideal person to succeed Bob Zoellick. You do not have to be a Jew to be the head of World Bank, I hope. By the way, Justin Lin comes from Taiwan, like Jeremy's parents.

Those who pay the piper call the tune.

Will the Africa States and the rest of the third world supply the money,in that case can they nominate somebody

wow are our coffers empty already

This is frightening. This must mean that there is no more money left in SA for the ANC to steal so now they want to start on everybody else's money
