South Africa is in the midst of a second wave of Covid-19 infections, with positive cases surging recently past the 1 million mark. How is it acting to contain the pandemic and mitigate the economic fallout on its already slowing economy? And what are the prospects for deepening Malaysia - South Africa bilateral ties during these trying times? We discuss the state of play with South African Acting High Commissioner Schoeman du Plessis.
