He says our society is resilient and has a strong judiciary - among other similarly strong institution.
"Our economy is slow but it hasn't been massively disrupted. Tertiary education has been disrupted, and that's been a very alarming thing - but our economy is still going strong. The news we've had over the last few days - for me has been very positive. And it's made people to have to do about-turns. That for me is the thing that offers me hope in the country," he said.
