2010 World Cup investors roll in
The president of the 2010 World Cup organising committee, Danny Jordaan, has confirmed that finances for the tournament are in very good shape.
"South African companies have already committed US$100m more than the 2002 World Cup in Korea and Japan," he said.
Jordaan said this confirmed the wider business world had confidence in the South African event being a success.
"Multi-national companies have done their homework and are investing in our World Cup," he added.
