Make SSME Relief Finance during Covid-19 for all, not only for 51% Black owned

During this rough time in our country all South African citizens are at risk, whether you earn R200 000 / month or R2 000 / month. We are all at risk of being infected. To add to that Covid-19 does not target any particular race or gender, once again we are all at risk.

There are so many small companies in South Africa that are struggling and cannot make a living because of this. It is affecting a lot of people. Now the great thing is the Government of South Africa put together a fund to help small businesses so they dont close during the pandemic that is eating at the world, however your company has to be 51% black owned to qualify.

Again I dont understand that and that is completely racist during a time where our nation is supposed to stand together.

Please sign the petition if you agree the government must open this fund for all companies that are directly being affected, regardless of the race that owns the company, as we are all at risk and many small companies are at risk of closing whether it is owned by a black, white, coloured or indian person
