There is some start up cash for this, just get Zuma to return all the billion rands of government money that he spent on his private yachts, super cars, houses and you can build a township with that money.

Confiscating his assets is a start
God Bless You,
I mean this really is a sufficient way to build houses. Africa is now going competitive and I really support them. I hope they are more of them, build wise earn clean!
This seems like the best place to test 3d printed homes
Thanks DW
Something so Soweto👍
Hope to see the best for them.
fantastic story
blessings.
anyone notice most of the kids are itching their scalps...but I am so glad this is working for them
DW should do a longer story about these start ups.
God is Good! 📿 I'm so greatful for people who step out on faith. The waste of the selfish is the good blessing for the poor. They need to win the NOBLE PEACE PRIZE. 🤗🤗🤗
As someone who lived in South Africa 35 years I can tell you it’s pointless building anything in South Africa. It’s gets destroyed, burnt, looted and sometimes all 3. Corrupt feral ANC government has left masses to rot and country is essentially on the brink of economic collapse from years of government thieving. No amount of entrepreneurs can fix that mess.

When beneficiaries of the most repressive system start talking corruption, one doesn't know whether to pay attention or roll one's eyes

@@jabulanithema1467 Nah just stating fact as I have zero to gain. People need to be made aware of the state of South Africa and if that makes you uncomfortable then you in denial.
I wonder how the bricks stand up during seismic conditions.

i get so sad when people actually dont know about these bricks. these are HYDRAFORM bricks they literally designed them for earthquakes. they made them to be interlocking because they dont use motor because brick and motor homes fall in small earthquake but interlocking brick are desiged to stay strong in the heaviest earthquakes ever recorded. and these are bullet proof because of how thick and dense and load berring you also dont need pillars. search HYDRAFORM they have a video
It's called a 'Mkhukhu' (Pronounced: Moo Coo Coo or M'koo koo) .. If USA incorporated this... housing is more available & will solve the housing issue..
Fighting corruption can bring africa equality
