Germany is a 1st world country that set out to do it and made sure it got done.

South Africa is a 3rd world shithole with an incredible amount of corruption

While I wouldn't call it a shithole, I do agree with the incredible amount of corruption.

I lived there. It's a shithole.

Don't let the nice resorts and game farms fool you. There's the Corpo class who gets completely privatised services and then there's everyone else, who are lucky if they get electricity when they'd actually be home.

Government is planning to launch a procurement process for 3000MW of gas-fired energy generation, with the most likely options being the deployment of power ships or a floating LNG terminal.

The new gas generation facilities will be located in Richards Bay and/or Mossel Bay.
