Namuhla, akuve nonke nibambelele kuleyo miyalelo? Izigaba ezintathu zomsebenzi wensindiso azizange zibe nomphumela otheni kini, futhi kunalabo abakholwa ukuthi izigaba ezimbili zangaphambilini ziwumthwalo ongenasidingo ngempela sokuthi bawazi. Bacabanga ukuthi lezi zigaba akufanele zithulwe kuquqaba futhi kufanele zihoxiswe ngokushesha kakhulu, ukuze abantu bangazizwa bekhungathekile yizigaba ezimbili zangaphambilini kule zigaba ezintathu zomsebenzi.
