jb buys 250,000 on market, page-28

>The difficult of getting money out of SA was given as a reason by a poster, close to the company, from my memory. But not stated to be from the company.

Why would that have to be stated by the company in a formal announcement???

I can tell you that I have an email from JB that basically states that it is difficult for South African nationals to hold shares in offshore listed companies because of the South African foreign exchange controls.

Please don't hesitate to contact the company for any further clarification.
