3. 3 Situation analysis South Africa’s engagement in the international sphere has been on the increase since 1994; and can be attributed to: –SA’s unique international profile which evolved from its liberation from Apartheid –The effects of globalisation –The changing nature of diplomacy & international relations –The numerous benefits that result from international relations This increased engagement is placing severe pressure on resources, policy and administrative coordination

4. 4 Shift in global political, trade and economic patterns – center of gravity moving from traditional ‘North’ to ‘South’. Growing influence of new formations: Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Arica (BRICS), GROUP OF 20,(G20),Colombia, Indonesia, Egypt, Turkey, South Africa (CIVETS ), Indian Ocean Rim Association (IORA) Growing impact of non-state actors and social movements: growing social disparities, economic and financial volatility, insecurity and scarce resources New global opportunities and frontiers: The ‘New Economies’ - the Blue Economy, the Green Economy and the Knowledge economy; exploration and utilisation of outer space (SKA project, satellites for communication, defence and environmental surveying) and advanced technologies. The Changing Global Environment

5. 5 Global Trends that Impact on SA’s Influence A new transnational resource agenda (scarce resources fuelling tensions, protectionism). Changing nature of conflict: internal armed conflict with regional dimensions; deployment of new technologies (robots, drones, cyber warfare, spy satellites); Shifting demographics: effects of global population growth, aging populations (the North, China) and youth bulge (Africa)

6. 6 Global Trends that Impact on SA’s Influence Economic migration: rapid urbanisation, stress on infrastructure and service delivery, social costs, political implications. Regionalism: economies of scale, eroding sovereignty, protectionism vs cooperation for mutual benefit. The future role of global governance institutions (UNSC, BWI): Reform or Replace.

7. 7 SA has moved from being the “skunk of the world” to being a respected, active and responsible global citizen. South Africa currently hosts the second largest number of foreign representation in the world and has a current global footprint of 125 Mission abroad plus Gaza, covering over 110 countries. SA has consistently championed human rights, disarmament and the peaceful resolution of disputes, the development of the South and the centrality of Africa in its Foreign Policy. In a highly competitive global environment, SA champions cooperation and partnership for mutual benefit over unbridled zero sum competition. SA’s “Diplomacy of Ubuntu” has earned global respect and affords SA with a unique voice of legitimacy and influence South Africa’s Current Global Standing

12. SA’s EXPANDING CONTINENTAL FOOTPRINT: Africa is the second fastest growing region in the World. Seven of the ten fastest growing economies in the World are on the African Continent. South Africa’s expanding footprint on the African Continent has resulted in strong political and trade relations. In 2013 South Africa was the biggest investor on the African Continent. FDI outflows grew from USD 2.9 billion in 2012 to a record high USD5.6 billion. Our major investments (value add) were in telecoms, mining and retail (UNCTAD : 2014 world investment report) FDI inflows jumped from USD 4.5 billion to a record high USD 8.1 billion in 2013 investment mainly in infrastructure (UNCTAD : 2014 world investment report).

13. 13 The Constitution and national priorities provide an overall mandate and scope for all work done by national government departments, provincial and local government and informs SA’s foreign policy The draft White Paper of South Africa’s Foreign Policy was approved by Cabinet and submitted to Parliament Under Outcome 11 of the Delivery Agreement, Government seeks to “Create a better South Africa and contribute to a better and safer Africa in a better world”; through: –Enhanced African agenda and sustainable development –Regional integration –Reformed global governance institutions, and –Trade and investment What informs DIRCO’S work?

37. 2013/14 Expenditure Outcome Programme 1: Administration – During the 2013/14 financial year, the expenditure for the Programme was R1.267 billion. The increase in expenditure is due to the inflationary adjustments mainly on office accommodation related to unitary fees for the Head Office Campus. Programme 2: International Relations – The programme reported an expenditure of R2.892 billion in 2013/14. This is mainly attributable to the depreciation of the Rand against other major currency. The depreciation of the Rand resulted in high exchange rates, thus increasing operational costs incurred in foreign currency, including salaries and lease payments. As a consequence the expenditure for programme 2 has exceeded the budget by R131.870 million. Programme 3: International Cooperation – The expenditure of R451.675 million in 2013/14 is also affected by foreign exchange fluctuations. The increase in expenditure is as a result of the higher operational cost as a result of the Rand depreciation. The programme the budget underspent by R7.314 million due to deferred expenditure in the programme to minimise the impact of foreign exchange losses as well as meetings that did not take place as was planned. 37

38. 2013/14 Expenditure Outcome …continued Programme 4: Public Diplomacy and Protocol – The overspending is attributed to the facilitation and provision of protocol services to the Heads of State/Government attended the State funeral of the former President Nelson Mandela. The event occurred after the adjustment estimates were concluded and became unavoidable. Programme 5: International Transfers – The overspending is as a results of foreign exchange rates losses in relations to the payment of membership fees and assessed contributions to United Nations, African Union and South African development Community. 38
