“The city is taking this work to the National Government for a while and I am grateful for the Minister Barbara.”
“This is a positive step in ensuring the level of investment and practice, which is necessary for the port to work successfully,” Lewis said.
The Mayor stressed the current inefficiency of the port, according to the World Bank, the world is most effectively in the world, which prevents regional economic growth and workplace in the world.
“We need to go to this hand brake and make special investment and management in the Cape Town port to create jobs in Cape Town,” he said.

“When the port cannot work hard enough, exporters have to direct their goods to Durban, GQEberha and other ports in other places,” he said.
The services and experience of the special sector expressed optimism in the RFI process, which is a full-scale partnership with a special sector, and showed that they are ready to help as much as possible.
Hibarri’s vice-president, Cherrylee Samson, the new acquisition of the city will attract investment and experience.
“By inviting the private sector, RFI investors contribute to capital, internships and innovative technologies, to contribute to innovative technologies that cause potential improvement and development.”
“RFI can be a key step touching issues such as Cape Town’s Container Terminal, blockage and strengthening potential,” he said.
Samson says that RFI also allows the participation of the private sector in the renewable energy projects in the port that contributes to the renewable effort in the port.
Ports are extremely important for the global economy and it is important to note that the global goods trade is through a port with the cost of trade.
