South Africa is doing great I thought this country has gotten independence recently so it must not be much developed but this is surprising. I'm jealous that india doesn't have such a good infrastructure after more then 70 years of independence because of you know the politicians :')
South Africa has big infrastructure problems, load shedding as power stations have been shut down.... Then when the power comes back on fuses blow and residents sit without power for hours. By the time they finally come out to fix it then it's load shedding again...

It's developed by local corporate and government. SA funds it own development for most part. Although I have nothing against the Chinese, they not big in doing projects in SA like how they building a whole city in Egypt
@jonathanbaptiste7733, what is wrong with a Chinese project manager in SA projects? After all, the Chinese leads the rest of the world when ot comes to infrastructure development 🙃
$5.8 billion dollars for a water fall city......sounds like an excellent idea to the millions of black South Africans still living in slum conditions. South Africa needs new leadership.
They really need to work on towards getting themselves out of those slums. Most of us we were born in poverty buy we have worked our way outta it. A development project can't be stopped because some people have decided to call a shacks their homes.
This will be successful as long it's not controlled by the bureaucracy. It will be like the City of London or Canary Wharf and they have become so successful due to their autonomy

I don't see such projects as investments because they are usually owned overseas or, in this case, held religiously; thus, South Africa is the breeding ground for domestic workers and garden boys for these properties, which, surprisingly, are black South Africans. It saddens me to hear of all these projects only to find ourselves as domestic workers in these properties. Furthermore, I wonder whether this is under the law because it sounds like segregation already...but this is South Africa; pretend like the locals are stupid and use whatever is at your disposal to further divide South Africa. The time bomb is ticking for ANC; they are deliberately delaying the land issue; in fact, South Africa is heaven for people coming from outside while its native masses are poor.
Yeah and South African government should give the property of blacks back to them like why would whites be having those property's their ancestors forcefully took it so they must return after independence.

@@asandilezothe9746 The biggest investment on this project are coming from government
Waterfall city,waterfall city, waterfall city,waterfall city,are you trying to brain wash people? How much did the land cost initially?
South Africa is already in a bad state but yet they want to build this nonsense and not look into the poor people...I guess that's why we paying so much on everything
What bad state? SA is the most developed and progressive on the continent, which bad state are you on about?
I stay in midrand this is all lies
How is it all lies🤣
No its not,
Do worry mate, the person who made this video has never been to South Africa and likely uses Wikipedia, copies video clips here and there and pretends like he has an informed research on South Africa.
VERY CLUELESS. Anyone who lives in South Africa knows within the first 5 minutes when someone is just using info fed from fake news media.
@@mmathabomaibelo6276 so waterfall is a thriving metropolitan with a large Muslim community
@@thobanimadlala I didn’t believe that as well 😂
We have No electricity here🤣🤣🤣
Little did they know 😂😂
And do not forget to buy the car before you buy proerty there. Opposte of what is promised in those developments 🤣😴🤣
I wouldnt invest in SA. This country is going one way
Its ok we already have alot of FDI investments
Hahahahahaha. Sorry. Hahahahahahaha.
When? When will this start and the end of this project?
Do you know Africans ? Hahahahaha.
Ok. Is china involved?
Who is doing this project?
We sit with so many poor people and I wonder if these people will get work there? If not. Why fund this if our people are still poor. Who benefits from this. .?
South Africa doesn't play when it comes to completing projects and we don't ever used foreigners to do the work on any level; all domestic professionals.
This isn't Eko Alantic with poor planning and lack of investments which is taking time, this project is literally half way complete with lot of investments running through with many international companies such as Amazon planning to have their second African bas3 located here
Why insert of Chinese on this video. This is not China. It’s Africa
islam what now?
That's what I thought 🤣
Would it have been more palatable if they said "Afrikaaner" or "Zulu?"
@@MusehanaH
Islam is a religion. Zulu & Afrikaans are traditions, languages and ethnicities.
We can't have a whole Islamic country within South Africa. Or any religion for that matter
@@goldenagelifestyle7121 , we are handling Orania within our country just fine and they are not considered a country jut for allowing whites only in their midst....So religion today, something else tomorrow. In case you didn't know, South Africa has as many Islamic communities as we do Afrikaans, Zulu and whatnot communities. Why we have a secular Constitution
Islamic City.. South Africa is gone..
We have nothing as blacks
Muslims will form 1 in 3 people on this planet form a majority by 2030 and Africa is already half Muslim
@@valentineisraelshabangu4069 its coz abo"MyLeader" spent all our money at konka, taking sfebe's to dubai and investing in Louis vuitton suits.
We kept following these dizzy "leaders" who had no vision or priorities manje we online b*tching waya waya because other kids are eating our lunch.
Please bafethu lets find some shame, at this point in time, we only have ourselves to blame.
White people developing South Africa, this is what i call integration :)
Did you not see the Indian people behind this development
@@wlpta6786 I mean the people that actually gonna pay this...
The land and the development is not by white people so stop lying. The people who will pay are those who will buy into the development...You need to learn a thing or two about real estate
@@MusehanaH I know the current situation of SA, SA is the most developed black african country because of white people, you like it or not :) (last message)
@@archive4059 The businesses here r either from Europe or black South African owned, even the waterfall estates r 70% black
We have high youth unemployment rate in South Africa. Our children are architects, if that's what Ramaphosa is hoping to do, why not engaging our children, particularly those who have architectural experience and those in the universities Invest our children. Muslims???? Another Guptas
free market capitalist democracy.
Whoever made this voice-over (American I would think) is truly terrible. He has no familiarity with French or Latin and therefore mispronounces a great many words. That isn't funny. It creates a sense of shoddiness which is the last thing that the client would want. You should have asked me to do it. I have a pleasant English voice and wouldn't have made a mess of it.
Islam?😲😲
Yes so what ? Over 2 billion Muslims live on this planet and will by 2030 form the global majority. 1 in 3 people will be a Muslim on the entire planet
