CAPE TOWN - The African National Congress (ANC) said that its main focus at Friday night's presidential gala dinner was to reach out to the business sector and not to just raise funds.
Treasurer-general, Dr Gwen Ramokgopa, said that the business sector was not always easy to reach and the gala dinner would go a long way in reaching out to them.
Ramokgopa spoke before President Cyril Ramaphosa's address in Cape Town on Friday evening ahead of the culmination of its 113th birthday celebrations in Khayelitsha on Saturday.
"We've gone beyond just fundraising. Fundraising is just but one of the outcomes. The main focus is to reach out to sectors and now we will be reaching through this presidential gala dinner to a sector that is hard to reach during our mass mobilisation and door-to-door."
