Abstract
This paper identifies the main issues that development in Transkei must address. These are job creation, food production and the upgrading of manpower productivity through appropriate education and training.
The first section gives statistical information on unemployment and food production. The second part discusses national development priorities and strategies as determined by the economic development planners and approved by the Government. The emphasis of the plan is small scale operations that can be operated and managed by the people themselves. The third section examines the development that is actually taking place against the approved national development priorities. Finally some of the policies and practices that are in conflict with what the country is seeking to achieve are highlighted.
