Jus say they r assembled & not manufactured in Botswana. Thats way there would be some logic in ur advert bcos in Botswana such initiatives could be politicised by now put into consideration that general elections r around the corner.
@@kgpeace30it's not about being negative. It's about being real, in order to not create a false perception of what's going on. "Manufacture" does a lot of work in creating a false narrative (assuming they aren't manufactured here). Assuming it's false, people are likely to vote because of this narrative, which is clearly a bad thing
This is insane. Our country has been sold right in our eyes 😢 It's not civilisation or sustainability, it's even worse . People smell the coffee , I really ro not know why these kind of agreement are made without the public input 🙄 'This intensive battery manufacturing means that building a new EV can produce around 80% more emissions than building a comparable gas-powered car'
Oh my thoughts...well first for s to say Botswana manufactured the Skywell we are saying it was to be build in Botswana not build in china and imported in to Botswana,
i am proud of Botswana, while south african politicians are confused instead of putting south africans first other smaller african countries are placing themselves properly.
The mentality of thinking South Africa is big is the one that is carried by those politician. Your country is small from running economy my friend. Those politicians are inexpierience msking South Africa a small country. We as Botswana have been running our economy for 58 years without the help of the whites. So swallow your pride and accept that your are a baby country learning. The whites by then who you dont want to accept to get expiriece from them ran the economy. Now its falling no longer big......
Ware 'we'...just speak for yourself. Some of you are political pawns. Take politics out of your mind, identify business opportunities and slide yourself in and start your business. This Electric car market is an emerging opportunity in the world and those who make the move will be ahead of others. Wena ha o shinama hoo ka diplotiki, o tlaa sala boy boy!
Interesting point of view! You’ve definitely got a good take-this EV market is a huge opportunity for those who jump in early. Politics aside, there’s real business potential here, and it’s all about spotting those chances and taking action. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
The way they hyped up Botswana that we are going to produce our own cars 4 years ago and creating 100000 jobs😂. This is not an honestly president 😢. Chinese make profits. Hunday plant back to SA 😂
Stop misleading the whole world. That car was manufactured in China; the brand of the car is called Skywell. It was never manufactured in Botswana; rather the government of Botswana claims that they established an assembly plant to assemble the car. It would have been nice if you showed us that "assembly plant"
Thanks for your comment! You’re right-the car is manufactured by Skywell in China, and the assembly part is what’s happening in Botswana. In our report, we were showing the "ground-breaking ceremony" launch...and what’s to come, as mentioned in President Masisi’s speech. If you check the description, you can jump to the chapters for more details on the assembly plant plans. We appreciate your feedback!
Just when the rest of the world is leaving the "green" life because of the damage it does to the environment, Botswana comes in, once again behind everyone else... LOL
this propaganda comes straight from the government,the biggest problem is them aligning themselves with chinese ccp.they are learning from their playbook,such a shame.
Lithium batteries are more environmentally toxic than fuel. Add the fume from the tyres carrying the heavy load it's disaster. The future of mobility lies in hydro powered engines, not electric vehicles.
Interesting take! There’s definitely debate around the environmental impact of lithium batteries, and you’re right that they have their own challenges, including disposal and resource extraction. Hydro-powered engines are an exciting possibility for the future, and it’ll be interesting to see how that technology develops. Thanks for sharing your perspective!
Let's see you build that car let's see the factory and all machinery used.. Botswana didn't build that and no way close to being close to build it's own car this just political stunts..why are they launching it in a coca cola warehouse 😂
Do you think Botswana's locally manufactured electric vehicles could make the country a leader in Africa's green revolution? Share your thoughts!
"this isn't just about cars its about innovation, job creation and leading Africa's green future" YES LORDE! ❤🔥
That's a good start.
These are Chinese cars available in Alibaba
It's electionering. There is no plant or contracts for such.

They just put parts together. Not manufacturer. In other words, the car was manufactured in China.
Am sure you are clever it's called assemble,
They put parts together in China and send finished products to US and EU...so manufactured in US and EU😂...

parts are manufactured in china, shipped as modules to Botswana, the assembly plant in Gaborone puts parts together… well done to country at large

Please don't lie to the masses!! Those can be easily procured on Chinese websites!
Not true...these cars are straight from China like that
Show us evidence coz what i knw they r assembled here in BW.....da thing is most people doubt the ability of Batswana...Amen
