President Cyril Ramaphosa has stepped in to direct Transnet to get its operations in shape.For more financial news, go to the President Cyril Ramaphosa has stepped into the crisis facing SA's logistics performance, in particular freight rail, and said on Tuesday that he had"directed Transnet to implement reforms swiftly and completely to turn around the crisis in South Africa's logistics system".
SA's logistics state sector is on its knees, with freight rail performance plummeting yearly since 2018/19. This year, TFR is anticipating its worst operational results, having faced floods, derailment, excessive vandalism and theft, as well as poor maintenance. The rail sector, in particular, has put a brake on the growth of mining and forestry companies and limited foreign exchange earnings from exports.
During the State of the Nation Address last month, President Ramaphosa also announced that the government would develop a roadmap for Transnet to clarify the steps needed to address the crisis and outline a path for reform.
He is shocked.
Another bullshit answer
There's going to be repercussions because this will minimise trucks on our roads which is great, but will leave truck drivers unemployed. Catch 22
The ANC is finished! Come 2024, Action4SA will deliver an HISTORIC upset countrywide. voteoutANC
Too little too late?
Oh Cyril, if only it were that easy to simply say something and it happens. Maybe that’s how the dollars in your sofa appeared, but in the real world you have to act as well, put right people in jobs, hold them accountable and suffer consequences of actions, ie good management.
Oh please , it's called on-goin corruption damage control
Ramaphosa is part of the problem
Typical CyrilRamaphosa - does nothing about a problem screaming in our faces n a daily basis. And honestly - who is listening to any of his “directions”? How can he provide any direction to others if he himself cannot make decisions? Heck - we still have Cele as minister!
Is that rrally what the President said?
' directed ' 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🚮
I’ve lost count of the number of crises facing South Africa.
The root cause for Transnet's challenges orders the board to get rid of the challenges, it won't happen. This corruption is even embedded in the private sector. But still we will overcome and survive this chaos because we know how.
Does he ever follow up on he's instructions?
Which clown is going to put his hand up and say I will do it, none because they are all useless and lazy except when it comes to steal from Prasa then they have energy aplenty 😜😜😜😂😂😂😂
Maybe we should purchase cheep trains from another country that doesn't doesn't fit our train tracks
...and how will train operate during load shedding?
He could not implement a piss up in a brewery
What is it with these guys... they wait until there is literally nothing left, then they want to do something. What turn around, its building from scratch baba.
What many ppl didnt touch on with regards to transnet the sabotage the road freight and logistics bosses did to transnet. No1 even investigated that nor did anyone report on it. You know SA is organized crime right? You think there is no logistics mafia 😂
……& of course they will listen!
It must be an early April fools joke. He promised us back in 2018 that he would sort out the Eskom issue and today it’s worst than ever
😂 and what how quickly it will function again! It won’t don’t be stupid
ANC - ANOTHER NATIONAL CRISIS MYANC CyrilRamaphosa it’s effecting your share portfolio
He wants to sell it.
Too little too late. Probably just last ditch effort cause they failing at the polls
Lol
Wait, let me guess....a special counsil....or a minister of transport (oh wait, we already have that)
Too little too late … as usual
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Reforms mean privatization. Liyahamba izwe simakade.
But he had Fix Fokal as minister of transport and now Fokal is SG of the ANC. His own useless minister, deployed dick head
Chy-na choochoo
Wow CyrilRamaphosa only 10 years late.... Strange how Cape Tow still works
Let me check DBSA site for funding opportunities and jump on board asap.
Minister of Trains coming soon!
Looting Spree activated.
Really and that’s going to make a difference. How ?
That should do it then.
Too late, ANC must fall.
They make the loudest noise when elections come WE AREN'T VOTING FOR ANC
About time ~ years too late.
Shouldn’t President Hot Air’s current Secretary General have done something about this when he was the self proclaimed Mr Fixit in charge of the transport department. Amazing. Rewarded with a promotion. Viva. Viva! VIVA!!! Just_A_Ducking alfred_cabonena
So he just directed Transnet to resolve the problems, Voila, problem solved. This kind of leadership will not suffice, it's greatly lacking
Fikile Mbalula destroyed it intentionally.
That should do the trick!
Minister of trains next bro
Make us laugh CR
Timeframe
They must fire minister of transport Fikile Mbalula
🤣🤣🤣
That would be like performing a miracle. There's no money to fix anything, cos the cadres robbed SA blind, besides criminals dismantling everything.
So much instruction...so little done.
Why now? Oh yes - election mos. Previously he was directing Transnet to accept the crisis and steal more.
I think the solution is a minister of trains. 😂
Fix Transnet and watch how the saboteurs will derail the process. (With apologies to the pun). Incredibly hard not to be cynical.
Ramaphosa is the biggest hoax in South Africa. Bigger than the Tembisa 10. Bigger than Thabo Bester. With Zuma you knew he was corrupt and useless. But Ramaphosa deceived everybody... He is a ramapoes after all, whatever that is.
Ukunya kwakhe
Phone Maria Ramos to come and undo her legacy
Yes, yes of course.
Which wand was Ramaphosa using to wave in Transnet's faces?
Dont hold your breath: VoetsekRamaphosa
😂. In what lala land do you have to tell the board and Exco to do the job they are paid to do.
At a snail's pace. Transnet has been in crisis for years and only now they're getting onto even acknowledging it. Nxa!!!
'stepped into the crisis'you say,he is going to make matters worse that one,he collapses everything he touches
MbalulaFikile
Not holding my breath
He shocked when he see a train
Has he spoken to the President of China about the corrupt Chinese company that colluded with the Guptas and corrupt SA officials and politicians that have crippled Transnet.
Turnaround strategy number 1, 473, 269. We'll be fine.
We need minister of Transnet
Viva
He ''stepped in' ? CyrilRamaphosa
This is not Craises is the lasen for laibar broucas end Contracts
We going to have a minister of trains!!!
England wants him to seem in charge a bit for a while.
Talk about slow on the uptake, eish wenna
What a clown, now he wants to step in once it is broken eish, he knew there was problems years ago. Our leader is a major disappointment 😪
i will always be thankful to God for giving me a reliable source no more lost,. through Brandonkaren11 Bitcoin mining investment platform
That would require appointing competent, qualified, and appropriately experienced individuals on merit not more utterly useless cadres
So he stepped in after 6 years in power only to instruct them to implement reforms After 6 years he only mentions this now
