Minister of Public Enterprises Pravin Gordhan has warned that, while two unions at South African Airways are demanding salary increases for members, the airline might not even be able to pay any salaries at the end of the month. The minister said the strike was worsening the airline's financial crisis. "SAA doesn't have enough cash to possibly even pay salaries at the end of the month," he said. "Not only will people not get increases but they might not even get their salaries," he added. He added it must be understood that even if a salary increase is agreed to, the money to pay for it is not available now.
