Truth be told, there's nothing positive about these mini projects. If you want South Africans to have positive posture towards life, just provide jobs for the people, that's all!
South Africans know that these projects aren"t really a big deal, theres bigger projects that have been completed and some under construction. These projects arent impressive, they're expected.
I think the only reason these 'mega' projects shook the world was because it was actually completed. Now please make a video named '1000 projects which infuriated the taxpayers' or '1000 incomplete projects'
I totally agree Charl, for every 1 project completed there was most likely 10 or more projects that flopped. It would also be interesting to know how much these projects actually cost after you deduct the monies that was stolen and paid to dummy companies that tenders were awarded too.
Some of the projects are not mega projects. They are just capital projects. There are mega projects such as Waterfall City, Menlyn Mein, Conubia an so on. On roads at least you should have included the upgrade and N4 between Pretoria and Rustenbug to a dual carriage high way. It was competed in 2021 around November.

Please understand the responsibility you have to give accurate information to your viewers along with accurate imagery to correspond. 80% of this video was incorrect.

Its because the media is busy spreading the bad narrative only! The Solar Plants will be a major boost and give eskom competition. There are still a few other projects that will be complete soon, e.g (Waterfall Super project -mall of africa and the surrounding), Lanseria Super project (airport, malls and residential developments), KZN highway reconstruction and redevelopment, Mpumlanga redevelopment, just but to name a few
@@newworldorder7 WaterFall City , Mooikloof Megacity , the Square Kilometre Array , an entire new wild coats highway in the Eastern Cape province with Africa’s newest tallest and longest bridges . Need I go on
And in the meantime since 1994, Hospitals are closing and none have been built. Not one Dam resevoir has been built while water shortages are critical. Two power stations were started being built and after huge over runs and more than ten years of construction are still still not producing electricity.
I'm from SA and can honestly say some of these I did know about... some of the info here is a little misleading too ... The M1 highway project - They have been working on since before 2010 and even now parts are closed due to the failure to have competent contractors do the work ... Solar power and wind power: might generate power but daily the load shedding implementation cuts power to the entire country for 3 hrs in sections - What you see here is contracts being payed for and time frames extended due to the corrupt government awarding tenders to direct family members who have shares in these contracts - so the projects might be finished but never used correctly - 2010 stadiums stand unused - the bus services don't run cause the taxi associations burn the busses as they loose business .... the list goes on
What? These are minor day to day developments. There's absolutely nothing to write home about. There are bigger and more complex developments and projects that are complete and still in process. The M2 highway and the mall are just maintenance projects.

Dead right mate. 7/10 of these projects had zippo to do with the guvament. Just look at the last two ANC mega projects -Kusile & Medupi, a gazillion rand overbudget, 10 years too late and still not fully functioning. Also made half of the cabinet ministers multi millionaires with contract kickbacks. This is the true performance metric of our governement

I wonder where the electricity is going, because we are a very dark South Africa since 1994 due to no electricity, driving on both sides of our roads to miss all the potholes. I hope that the people out there don't believe a word of the content of this video. Pure political move from the ANC....
Some of these projects are very small in South African context......not sure if enough researchwork was done before publishing this. There are so many bigger renewable energy projects other than the ones mentioned.

Not a thing has been done for the railway infrastructure. Why hasn't this major projec hadn't been tackled withMillions of commuters are dependent on this means of transport which caters for the poor.ANC must not lie to us.They come with all these fancy and unnecessary projects which does not help the poor in any way.
Vandalism on railway lines is a setback on the side of our government. How will our government manage the rate of theft, e.g cable theft, vandalism etc.
Sadly the ANC government is failing the people on so many levels. South Africa is a fools paradise and is actually on the brink of collapse. Rampant corruption, electrical grid collapse and massive unemployment to mention but a few.
I did not realize my country has not achieved anything of note recently till I saw this video... Only 3 or 4 projects here make sense to be a big deal the rest are not even worth a shout out
I love the mixed farming idea of maximum utilization of land . At 6,09 on the video, solar and tree farming. (Is this to keep the solar pannels cool, or just another example of no maintenance. )
Not you schooling me about my own country haha why do I feel like I live under a rock now? However these are not so major projects in SA although I do understand they are especially for the continent in terms of development
Africa is the next superpower. We really need to start working together and stop fighting over petty disputes that improvish us all in the process. We think we are different but the moment we leave the continent (like what happened in Ukraine) WE ARE BLACK! We could literally do a similar situation to America where we agree on fundamental rights then have local laws tailored to the individual peoples. A united states of Africa. I vow in my lifetime I will see it happen. A finally free Africa.
@Solomon Yeah I agree Africa. it's just a continent blessed with so much of stuff that it people should not be failing to understand that lucky they are to be blessed with the abundant natural resources that Africa's got right from the precious minerals to the non renewable energy to the coming renewable energy era. A continent that's just full of Wealth if manage properly and the continent that can truly lift it's people and make each and every one of them wealthy enough yet there are certain factors that are still holding the Africa to unleash it's greatest potential but if Africa start unleashing it's potential then it can just be as powerful as USA. Unity is the strength Afterall if you're United then you'll rise to the greater heights. Each of us should be giving our level best.. work our fingers to the bone to make Africa a greatest bestest continent.
Try and explain that to my brothers & sisters in S.Africa. There are too many blaming other African nationals for the failings of our government. Did you know the most successful immigrants in the USA are Nigerians? The Emirati states prefer S.Africans for their work ethic? Zimbabweans are the most educated people in Africa? We have it all in our continent. What we lack is a strong & disciplined military presence and competent leadership.

I have been living in South Africa since 1979 .... it grew until 1995 , a little more until Mandela passed away .... since then ... corruption, nepotism, theft and mismanagement by the ruling party is steadily destroying our beautiful country.
All this Project in a Big Cities, how Nice for City People. While the Money for Township and Rural Area Development goes missing, and nobody cares. I said it before as long as Townships and Rural Areas remained marginalised , all this means nothing to me. Take care of marginalised Majority First, what's the point of all this while Ordinary Black South Africans live in Terrible Conditions ?
And the biggest of them all is the failure of the Railways,Post Office,Denel,Defence force,Police dept,Hospitals,SABC ,Municipalities and Eskom.What a sad story to tell from the currupt ANC Coverment from Africa to the rest of the world.
The money they stole from these tender contracts is why all took way longer to make than expected to build, most projects don't get finished actually. Our $1million(R15million) stadium was a dry field with bleachers(stands).
Not one ANC Government Project. The useless ANC can not finish two Powerstations for over 5 years now and that's why we have loadshedding and there is a great possibility for total collapse of the electricity infrastructure. Why do you not make a video about that?
Not all pictures represent what is said - I saw pictures if M1 while speaking about M2. If this could improve the information here would be relevant. The same applies to the bridge in Soweto Otherwise, this is valuable information. Thank you
I am very impressed with the solar and wind power projects. I never knew S.A. had them. I am not sure why it would shook the world because it is not so big if compared to some other countries but I am still very happy for South Africa for having it.
I'm south African ......and not impressed at all.......We still have poverty, unemployment, load shedding, water shedding, all this is not important in our lives it does not put food in our stomachs billions spent on malls that people who can afford to shop and the list can go one .........
Wy u lie like that.... We in south africa siting approximately 16 to 20 hours with out electricity.... We change into a 4th world country that is run in government by crime and corruption.... The highest crime rate in the world today most run by taxi owners....
Unemployment is 46pc, poverty is worse than pre 1994, govt cannot keep the lights on,roads are not vehicle-worthy, crime is on all-time high, corruption is order of the day since 1994, country is bankrupt. ASK GOVT if all this is true....
We appreciate the channel for gathering positive things about thee country but sone of these projects are just small projeçts with nothing shocking thee world. I'm afraid if we over-rate them we might just mean we deserve little things.

I'm also surprised that the world can be shaken by such small infrastructure projects.
There's nothing fast growing about our economy unfortunately.
Yep it's actually the opposite
yes, the unemployment rate
Corruption is fast growing I suppose :)
South Africans have this tendency of complaining everywhere. Toxic energy. We are the brands of our country, find suitable platforms to complain.

Some of these projects are very small in South African context......not sure if enough researchwork was done before publishing this. There are so many bigger renewable energy projects other than the ones mentioned.
South Africa is building entire cities and the worlds most advanced telescope , what was mentioned in this video was the EXTREMELY small stuff
@Christopher Walker Can You Mention Some of those ongoing Projects. We'll take that into Consideration.
@@Displore1 Sure thing
WaterFall City ( Africas first smart city )
Menlyn Maine ( Africas first green city and home to the most advanced hospital in Africa )
N2 toll route in the Eastern Cape , where some of Africas tallest and biggest bridges are being built
Durban Point development
Oceans Mall / Umhlanga development
The Square Kilometre Array ( the WORLDS most advanced telescope )
Johannburg CBD revitalisation
Ekhuruleni Aerotropolis
Durban Aerotropolis
Rosslyn development
The Nigel train factory that is producing the next generation of South Africa's commuter passenger trains
So soon to occur Gautrian expansion
Nkosi City in Mpumulanga
Multiple STEM subjects universities in Pretoria and a new police college in Hammanskraal
Musina ring road ( or any SANRAL project such as that occurring on the N3 )
A new private hospital in Musina
Rand Waters 28 billion rand bulk water upgrades
The massive upgrade of the Durban harbour to reaffirm it position as both South Africas and Africas biggest port
I could go on if you wish
@@christopherwalker5017 wow, that was theeee information. One must know their story coz South Africans know too much🤣🤷🏽♀️👌🏽👊🏽
@@thembi9645 I was hoping to see Medupi And Kusile Power station their combined output is 10000 Migwhats if power. Also Silverton Autocity first of it's kind in Africa
Not a thing has been done for the railway infrastructure. Why hasn't this major projec hadn't been tackled withMillions of commuters are dependent on this
means of transport which caters for the poor.ANC must not lie to us.They come with all these fancy and unnecessary projects which does not help the poor in any way.
Vandalism on railway lines is a setback on the side of our government.
How will our government manage the rate of theft, e.g cable theft, vandalism etc.
It's good to know. Thanks
Sadly the ANC government is failing the people on so many levels. South Africa is a fools paradise and is actually on the brink of collapse. Rampant corruption, electrical grid collapse and massive unemployment to mention but a few.
No it's Not, this video is testimony enough. Yes your favorite captured media teaches you that
@@bongani9972 A conservative 50% unemployment, Eskom collapse , rampant inflation- only a matter of time Bongani.
My country south africa🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
I did not realize my country has not achieved anything of note recently till I saw this video... Only 3 or 4 projects here make sense to be a big deal the rest are not even worth a shout out
How can Medupi projects not be in this list? This is not a reality of projects in South Africa
To everyone who would like to visit SA 🇿🇦 , welcome we look forward to meeting you.
Very interesting
These are just small projects
I love the mixed farming idea of maximum utilization of land . At 6,09 on the video, solar and tree farming. (Is this to keep the solar pannels cool, or just another example of no maintenance. )
500 UNCOMPLETED projects that shook South Africa.
Not you schooling me about my own country haha why do I feel like I live under a rock now? However these are not so major projects in SA although I do understand they are especially for the continent in terms of development
Agreed , there are much bigger projects going on than this
Not shaking anything imo. Goverment should be doing more
👍
These aren't mega projects, we have mega project bot these small ones
Liam Wepener as a South African professional architect who worked on several of these projects you should have a positive input NOT to criticize
Mhmm... Interesting 4 ways mall has 450 shops inside, while Menlyn has over 500... Menlyn gots to upgrade its size too 🔥 it's dope
Tell the world we can't even build a power station that can run at 20%. Of the capacity! And oh yes it cost probably 10 times more than budgeted for.
Thank you so much, what an amazing documentary. Amandla phambili sizwe simnyama phambili.👏👏👏👏👏👏👏✊

Lets talk about the corruption and violence, thats MEGA in SA. Most infrastructures are dilapidated due to bad governance and poor maintenance.
Africa is the next superpower. We really need to start working together and stop fighting over petty disputes that improvish us all in the process. We think we are different but the moment we leave the continent (like what happened in Ukraine) WE ARE BLACK!
We could literally do a similar situation to America where we agree on fundamental rights then have local laws tailored to the individual peoples. A united states of Africa.
I vow in my lifetime I will see it happen. A finally free Africa.
Sounds like we have a similar mindset.
@Solomon Yeah I agree Africa.
it's just a continent blessed with so much of stuff that it people should not be failing to understand that lucky they are to be blessed with the abundant natural resources that Africa's got right from the precious minerals to the non renewable energy to the coming renewable energy era. A continent that's just full of Wealth if manage properly and the continent that can truly lift it's people and make each and every one of them wealthy enough yet there are certain factors that are still holding the Africa to unleash it's greatest potential but if Africa start unleashing it's potential then it can just be as powerful as USA. Unity is the strength Afterall if you're United then you'll rise to the greater heights. Each of us should be giving our level best.. work our fingers to the bone to make Africa a greatest bestest continent.
Try and explain that to my brothers & sisters in S.Africa. There are too many blaming other African nationals for the failings of our government.
Did you know the most successful immigrants in the USA are Nigerians? The Emirati states prefer S.Africans for their work ethic? Zimbabweans are the most educated people in Africa?
We have it all in our continent. What we lack is a strong & disciplined military presence and competent leadership.

Africa is the next superpower ????????? super shit hole bro !!!
Believe in JESUS today, confess and repent of your sins. No one goes to heaven for doing good but by believing in JESUS who died for our sins. For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.(John 3:16)❤️😎❤️😎❤️😎❤️
I have been living in South Africa since 1979 .... it grew until 1995 , a little more until Mandela passed away .... since then ... corruption, nepotism, theft and mismanagement by the ruling party is steadily destroying our beautiful country.
This country has so much potential, ANC wasted 27 years of development. SA should be given to the Arabs of Dubai
All this Project in a Big Cities, how Nice for City People. While the Money for Township and Rural Area Development goes missing, and nobody cares. I said it before as long as Townships and Rural Areas remained marginalised , all this means nothing to me. Take care of marginalised Majority First, what's the point of all this while Ordinary Black South Africans live in Terrible Conditions ?
Its nice and all but without electricity these projects are rendered useless... And that is the biggest problem with the country at the moment...
And the biggest of them all is the failure of the Railways,Post Office,Denel,Defence force,Police dept,Hospitals,SABC ,Municipalities and Eskom.What a sad story to tell from the currupt ANC Coverment from Africa to the rest of the world.
.....AAh now I get it....April Fools!!! Bloody got me there
The money they stole from these tender contracts is why all took way longer to make than expected to build, most projects don't get finished actually. Our $1million(R15million) stadium was a dry field with bleachers(stands).
Proud of my country 🇿🇦
Especially the looting and corruption 🤣
Solar power but we have loadshedding 🤣🤣🤣
I don't understand what's funny, Is SA the only country going through power outages? How can you be king and dumb?
Because SA brag about their accomplishments but we have loadshedding
@@bongani9972 do you understand that South Africa is a failure? We will NEVER have electric cars here because we have loadshedding!
Won't do anything if cannot "score" by it. At what price? Who will benefit by energy exploration? Watch the score board!
Not one ANC Government Project. The useless ANC can not finish two Powerstations for over 5 years now and that's why we have loadshedding and there is a great possibility for total collapse of the electricity infrastructure. Why do you not make a video about that?
Nice to have versus need to have. Who benefitted?
Shook the world??? You must be joking...
Another project is raising the car allowance to R800,000 and above for ANC members of parliament instead of repairing Eskom
🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦 I love you South Ahhh💜
Malls and road repairs and rebuilding washed out bridges infrastructure repairs after 20 years of neglect no big deal
Proudly South African🇿🇦♥️
Not all pictures represent what is said - I saw pictures if M1 while speaking about M2. If this could improve the information here would be relevant.
The same applies to the bridge in Soweto
Otherwise, this is valuable information. Thank you
I am very impressed with the solar and wind power projects. I never knew S.A. had them. I am not sure why it would shook the world because it is not so big if compared to some other countries but I am still very happy for South Africa for having it.
It's a big deal because SA has always had 1 power supplier which is eskom now with the wind and solar projects, eskom will soon lose its monopoly hold
In Northern Cape Province, there are more than 100 solar projects in progress + other provinces are doing their solar projects
@@Mankind0112 And Eskom scrapped their ones started 10 years ago.
I think they are being sarcastic🙈
This is a solar plant where i work in Upington
It's not the fastest growing economy in Africa. It may be the fastest shrinking economy due to CORRUPTION
I'm south African ......and not impressed at all.......We still have poverty, unemployment, load shedding, water shedding, all this is not important in our lives it does not put food in our stomachs billions spent on malls that people who can afford to shop and the list can go one .........
Wy u lie like that.... We in south africa siting approximately 16 to 20 hours with out electricity.... We change into a 4th world country that is run in government by crime and corruption.... The highest crime rate in the world today most run by taxi owners....
Typical Boer comment trashing the government 20 hours without electricity really????? which south Africa are living on
Unemployment is 46pc, poverty is worse than pre 1994, govt cannot keep the lights on,roads are not vehicle-worthy, crime is on all-time high, corruption is order of the day since 1994, country is bankrupt. ASK GOVT if all this is true....
We appreciate the channel for gathering positive things about thee country but sone of these projects are just small projeçts with nothing shocking thee world. I'm afraid if we over-rate them we might just mean we deserve little things.
The most untouchable Developed Country in AFRICA. 👍
Not impressed....we expect & deserve much more in South Africa....we know the possibilities of South Africa!!!🥱
Mega project 😲... your joking right ?
Economy is the problem
How are these mega projects🤔
SA is not what is reported here
So true
Mzansi in da building💜
The south will rise again!!!👻🇿🇦
