AfriqueDuZuid: Amazon has been in SA for some years, but was here as a data hub.
Even Warner Music came to Africa, they placed their headquarters here and Universal music
But they will be opening offices in different african countries
U are lucky. I feel like SA is so Americanized. There is so much semblance ur cities. For instance Cape Town cbd gives me this LA downtown vibes and long streets in Cape Town looks a lot like new or learn(I mean talk of the art,street music,stores,carnival,paintings very vibrant walkable streets).
I can show you what a$1 million dollar (R14m) house looks like in South Africa in comparison you'll be shocked
Pls do, of course I expect to be marveled. Even houses of cheaper prices in camps bay looks way more exquisite that this derelict,haunted,dirty cave
Meanwhile checking this 500k houses in Abuja looks better than anything in that crazy zoo. Heck some of this houses go for less of that price. Lol u can even check the comments section to see Kenyans cursing their overpriced real estate after watching this vids. Gawd it was hella funny to read through their frustrations.
rvp2018: Mombasa port is bigger than port complex Lagos - COMBINED Apapa and Tin Can - for starters - now only 2nd to Port Durban (no 3) in SSA- after being beaten senselessly by Port Tanger in Morroco and Port Said in Egypt.
Congratulations u wasted 10 minutes of my time patiently waiting to see construction activity yet not a single machine site. Heck not even a human being save the dude behind that camera.
Give up alto easy . This is just as dead as every carrot talk from jomo’s descendants
Stupidity. So basically what represents Mombasa is sunset view,Mombasa most important and only tarred road(the road to the port),resorts,mama ngina park,a few hideous estate and render images of wet pipe dream estates . Smh!!!! It’s thats bad over there.
Shma2020: @samorobo aka Vlain, you're making too much noise. bring your experts to benchmark here in Mombasa and hope that will save the zoo from looking like kibera slums.
Mama ngina park and resort. Has it gotten to this over there.
Shma2020: So you're still seeking relevance ? the table will just turn and the shackman you're trying to massage ar*s will change his game and perception all over sudden and you'll be left more perplexed and dumb than before .
Keep watching
I follow fact backed with empirical data,report,videos not ass idiot.
Wuoche: I know you now change your tone dur to shame You couldn't write two sentences without mentioning how 88 Nairobi was doomed and will never see light of the day. Since the construction is currently ongoing, you are trying to play dumb
Wrong person idiot. I will look up ur 88 it had better be worth ur words.
AfriqueDuZuid: Also if you check very well the frank report is not about actual wealth
More on values of properties and we all know Nairobi properties(in fact Kenya in general) is overhyped and overpriced. Talk of over inflated landed properties which I turn affect the price of finished buildings.
Wuoche: What to be the tallest residential building in Africa. I can remember you swear to your gods that it won't be built. Nowadays I can see you changed your tone on the poroject
I will google it out. And I don’t rmbr ever talking on ur 88 whatever - so ur observations are basically hallucinations. Go slow on the alcohol intake - my advice.
theenchanter: ranks like this work with local currency converted to the american dollar ($). It's almost impossible for a nation with deliberate weakened currency to be above another currency with a strong currency.
That's the case with Nigeria in those ranks.
Help me tell em. I don’t know why people can be so daft. I spit abeg.
AfriqueDuZuid: New Amazon Africa headquarters to be based at Cape Town’s River Club development[i][/i]
New Amazon Africa headquarters to be based at Cape Town’s River Club development Global retail giant Amazon will be the anchor tenant in the new R4 billion River Club development in Cape Town.
The City of Cape Town has recently given the go-ahead for the River Club mixed-use development, which will be the new home of retail giant Amazon in Africa.
The development design will create 150,000 square meters of mixed-use space, which will be divided into commercial and housing uses across two precincts.
The River Club development will feature 59,600 square meters of office space, 20,700 square meters of retail space, an 8,200 square meter hotel, and a 4,100 square meter gym.
The new precinct will include restaurants, conferencing, a school, and events space.
The City of Cape Town said US retail giant, Amazon will be the anchor tenant at River Club by opening a base for its operations on the African continent here.
The development is envisaged to take place in phases, with construction set to take place over three to five years.
The development of the first precinct includes mixed used and a floor space of approximately 60,000 square meters.
The second precinct will house the Amazon headquarters, which includes around 70,000 square meters of floor space.
Cape Town executive mayor Dan Plato said the new River Club development offers many economic, social, and environmental benefits for the area.
“We are committed to driving investment to revitalise the economy, which is slowly recovering following the impact of Covid-19,” said Plato.
I read about this some days back. I am so happy for SA even though I wished this would have come to us.
Wuoche: I can see 88 Nairobi is now off your list. Ugatuzi tower is also coming well, excavation has started. Don't think that Kenyan projects are like the one in Nigeria which take 30 yrs to complete.
You need to learn something from Durban and fix your Zooland.
Idiot,for starters that is an old pics. Secondly e en if that was a current pics i would love for u to be aware that isn’t the only coastline Lagos have fool. Here is another coastline idiot. Enjoy the deep blue sea.
rvp2018: Under Affordable Housing Project - Mombasa is [b]build[/b]60m dollars Buxton estate.
.
Atleast add “ING” so we will know if this is present tense or future tense If present tense the we await construction pics else this is yet again another wet pipe dream this thread is never bereft of having from u
Shma2020: If you want to do benchmarking on how to protect and utilize the sea/ocean waters, then kenya, South Africa, Seychelles, Tanzania are the place.
For instance, this is Mombasa kenya, so clean and breathtaking.
U are very useless.nothing is breathtaking about this.That of Durban and Lagos gives u instant chills on glance not this river bank village stream whatever.
Btw before u shift goalpost I was only admiring beautiful Durban and it’s semblance to Miami even tho I couldn’t help but notice how that singular cbd of Durban(excluding umhlanga) looks better and bigger than all ur combined cbd’s put together.
rvp2018: South Korea's to finally construct 36 acres KAISIT - in Konza city - this will be research and technology university - modelled on it's famous Korea Institute of Science and Technology
Another day another render -Another day another wet pipe dream.
This signed contract will join the list of abandoned wet pipe dreams like ugatuzi,500k housing and the rest. Heck those once moved from contract sign to awarding and still died at the groundbreaking stage lol i cant laugh bro,I just cant
rvp20182: You can't teach us aviation. Its likely we will overtake Nigeria in 2yrs time in the number of passengers..to be just below south Africa and Ethiopia
KQ is a dead hope flying coffins. U should start a countdown- it has few more days on air
68816419: The new Victoria attach International airport Uyo Kenyans must learn Features 1. A digital self check-in by a robot pre-planned before Covid-19 2. Five bridges, staircases and seven lifts. 3. Four escalators, pressure sensitive and only move when a passenger is detected. 4. Special roof that can last up to 200 years without changing colour, was conceptualized for the project. 6. Very high security architecture . 6.Finger print digital pass or card pass.
7. A sick bay and staff lodge.
8. Four methods of fire prevention: fire extinguishers, fire water sprinkler system, fire detectors, FM 200 ie automated fire suppression system.
9.To accommodate one million passengers per year
10. Occupies a total area of about 30,000 square meters.
This tiny state airport would immediately ,singlehandedlyand easily kick jkia to the dust once completed . Gosh just reading through the features of the facilities alone automatically makes jkia primitive in my view. Must be sad trying to compete.
They say empty vessels makes the loudest noise and in this case that would be Kenyans. Let the entire region of east Africa compete with Lagos at their own peril. Lol
Shaytun: Anambra Airport gearing towards completion.
Lol this is great. Later one idiot will rise up from his zoo to say Kenya has more projects than the rest of SSA- maybe wet pipe dream project- otherwise I wasn’t wrong to say east Africa will have to go through Lagos first
rvp20182: Nairobi is a vibrant international city that can never be compared to your cattle kraal. Mombasa too.Abuja for me is just a epic failure. No Nigerian except hired by federal gov want to go there. Everyone wants to go to lagos.Abuja streets are empty..lagos is a hell hole of humanity
Bro u mean this oh no pls have some shame at least. This is a shey for lack of a better word
rvp20182: Abuja is place for northern illiterate Nigeria big boys sitting on cowardly southern boys..this is true for most of west Africa..the sahel desert drive the herders down.. they displace and kill the southerners..only in Nigeria do they have power thanks to moving capital to abuja..elsewhere the capital are in the coastal south.Abuja is symbol of Nigeria colonization by the north. Ghana is better that way because they keep the northern primitive on their place.Sahel desertification plus islamism has allowed a cattle kraal like Abuja to benefit from oil leaving lagosians sleeping on their cars for 5 days.Imagine Kenya being controlled by desert boys..somalis and borana of Ethiopia
Ur wasted ur brainpower writing this hogwash. Heck ur attempt at sarcasm sucks.
Btw cure urself of ignorance.Abuja’s population should be well above 4m now. Not that I care tho. My major concern is it more being aesthetically developed than anything I have seen in ur zoo. I look at Abuja and I tell my self Nigeria did good on that.
rvp20182: Abuja is dead civil servants city..why would a slum dwellers or rural person go there..everyone goes to Lagos...20 million city of mega slums .Abuja is waste of money .The street are empty..almost a ghost town .Daily Nigerians trek to Lagos looking for opportunities ..nobody apart from fulani herdsmen go to Abuja.Epic failure .A cattle kraal.
Nobody gives a flying Fvck if Abuja has a population of 200 or 50 people. What matter is that it’s looks way more aesthetically developed than any city in Kenya including ur two major slumpolis. That I can tell u for free without doubt or hesitation.
rvp20182: Bonoboism is back at full display at Tema port..the smaller zoo..kibera provide cheap labour for Karen,CBd and industrial area..cleaners, gardeners that kind.It true for most developing Cities..slum develop from low grade workers trying to create walking distance to their job.Few cities allow Slum dwellers to integrate like in west Africa
Nope that is the thread for 91% of Nairobi’s populace hence why they are so many slum hovering around Nairobi like houseflies.Everywhere is a slumpolis save for few estates and govt blocks.FACTS
But it is a hard struggle, particularly for the 99 % of the workforce who lack higher education. For those with a secondary school certificate or lower, a move to the city usually leads to work in the informal sector, where over 80 % of Kenya’s workforce toil. They do any kind of work to buy food, pay rent, and perhaps send some money to their families in the village. They work as apprentice mechanics, welders, carpenters or household helpers. Or they hawk fruits, second-hand clothes, umbrellas and pencils
People keep coming mainly because urban jobs pay more. By law, the minimum wage for menial jobs in Kenya’s three cities – Nairobi, Mombasa and Kisumu – is almost double that of rural areas. Gardeners, street cleaners, watchmen and housekeepers in cities are entitled by law to 13,572 Kenyan shilling (KES) (135 US$) a month, compared to 7,240 KES (72 US$) in rural areas
