The event featured a keynote address by Mr. Solomon Quaynor, Vice President: African Development Bank (AfDB). The scene was set by Adv. Michelle Phillips, Group Chief Executive: Transnet SOC Ltd (Transnet), who discussed the importance of collaboration and building Africa together. Several panel discussions followed, covering topics such as rail development, ports as enablers of the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA), and private sector participation in Transnet’s turnaround strategy. During the conference, a key moment was the signing ceremony between Transnet GCE Michelle Phillips and Mr Solomon Adegbie-Quaynor, VP (AfDB), formalizing the recently approved loan agreement from the AfDB. This loan will support Transnet’s recovery and growth plans and fund the first phase of its five-year capital investment strategy. The investment will enhance Transnet’s current capacity and prepare for future expansion across key segments of the transport value chain. And we were honoured as LivinginSAtv to be invited in this important event, and we fully participated in the discussions to shape our country and the continent of Africa. 0:00 - Intro 7:30 - Event Starts 10:08 - Mr. Chris Maphunye Evacuation Leader at Transnet SOC Ltd 10:46 - Mr. Tshokolo Nchocho (TNPA Board Chairperson) 11:42 - Mr. Solomon Quaynor Vice President at AfDB 18:05 - Adv.

59:46 The challenge is to restore the Carlton to it's former glory. It's historical significance in the making of a our now democratic nation, challenges us to even have the hotel not converted to just mere apartments, but at least to a world standard hotel with global market prices for rooms. I know we should do more on that. The secret is that you can't make a profit out of the Carlton Centre/hotel super block - The city (the people) is to invest in it and keep it running. It's really a collective effort. So if I can, I should decide to give my contribution to it

Transnet is the second biggest landlord in South Africa. They own a huge chunk of land and a huge portfolio of real estate.

South Africa needs more economists linked to the Austrian school.. where are the Chicago-Boys followers of Milton Friedman and Edumund Burke.. please forget Hayek and the Frankfurt school and the socialists who deliver misery and communism as a result... more economic freedom and more prosperity is possible.
