So after many years of piecing it together we finally have the NHI – or do we. Cyril has made a big issue about finding his pen, but many commentators are doubtful that we will see much action for a long time, if at all. Opposition parties and civil society have predictably opined that it is unconstitutional and will take it to the Constitutional Court. Other have questioned where the money will come from. The bottom line is that Ryts does that think that this is something that you should be concerning yourself with right now. By the governments own admission, it will take about three years to get everything in place just to get started. It will also be interesting to see how the elections will alter the health landscape.

Ryts is a multi-faceted approach to encourage all South Africans to take back their sovereignty. We do this by teaching, educating and collaborating on your legal rights, without involving legal professionals. From the outset we are at pains to point out that we do not have any negative intentions or comments about the legal profession and thoroughly recommend that you use their services as appropriate. What we are saying however is that there is so much that you can easily do yourself – with the right knowledge, which Ryts intends to impart.

The medium in which we will convey the message to you is designed to evolve over time. First will be this newsletter, then access to the platform and then the AI component. Events and podcasts will also feature in the near future.

Embracing Sovereignty with Ryts

Ryts is dedicated to empowering all South Africans by teaching and educating on legal rights without the need for legal professionals. We emphasize that while we hold the legal profession in high regard and recommend their services when needed, there is much individuals can accomplish independently with the right knowledge, which Ryts aims to provide.

Our communication strategy will evolve, starting with this newsletter, followed by platform access and an AI component. Events and podcasts are also planned for the near future.
