Effective governance is what is required. Remove politics from SOEs. Get qualified and competent people to run them. Privatisation is no answer. We all know that. These are our assets we fought for them

Now he is thinking well

We will render this country ungovernable. Let him try to do that.

It's not going to happen. It's a wishful thinking not under our watch

It started with railway trucks , translux and citytocity followed now it’s the trains

Cyril Ramaphosa forced to sell off South Africans' most lucrative train routes.

Good move

Great idea !

Privatise the entire railway system, you'll see the difference immediately. The state failed acutely to operate the railway network. Aluminium parts are dismantled while the train is in motion. It is the same poor people who cause all damage.

Muthengisi is showing true colours.

Wrong move Mr president.

If you can't remove the dead wood from the government, including parastatals, then I guess the next option is to move the function to private sector. What other suggestions are on the table? A whole SOE with the full mandate to take care of the rail network failed spectacularly.

Cyril Ramaphosa is handing a country back to white business. He's reversing all the gains made by his predecessors. This is disturbing!

If privatization means decent, efficient, reliable as affordable transportation for the working class and the poor, then let’s do it as soon as tomorrow. PRASA has failed commuters for 26 years. Chuck prasa in the bin.

Now it makes sense and we know who's sabotaging our rail infrastructure. Dots are connecting nicely

Admitting defeat, no money no trust in Anc

So no more terene in South Africa?

Sounds more like an extension of Gautrain to me
