Working standards za Chinese ziko juu

Ala kwani @spear amefutwa kazi?

:smiley:

Re branded.

I see mchina akibeba hizo concrete blocks daily niki ng’ethia and tu hapo job… Like clockwork
Nimetii. Chinku ni mnoma tu sana

Why were the wildlife conservation guys causing? Those zebras seem indifferent to the activities above and beside them. When the rail is done, there’ll be no road astride the tracks and their lives will be back to normal

Have there been any human deaths attributed to the construction of this SGR? From Msa to where it is now?

Sisi hapa ni kelele tu…mchinku anaendelea na kazi

You are marvelling at this?

Hii ilikuwa hapa a few days ago. Hamkuiona…including the 7kms under the sea coz of an airway?

This is the kind of work ethic we lack in the African content. Tunapenda sana kuteta na kutaka vitu za bure. Anyway, I look forward to be traveling to Naivasha on the regular once the trains start operating. Kwanza people should be thinking about setting up car hire services around the Terminal. Unaweza nukisha kitunguu

Looking very good. We have new sofa sets that we will be paying for decades. At least we will not be sitting on milk crates :smiley:

last yr dec 2 workers in mai mahiu died when a culvert they were constructing caved in and collapsed on them they said it was caused by strong winds, construction of the lunatic railway claimed more than 2500 lives

And among the 2500, were victims of those cats, Ghost and The Darkness…
Thanks for the update on the 2 who passed on in Mai Mahiu

Trains cause noise and vibrations some of which isn’t perceptible to humans but animals get very alarmed by them.
How are they going to stop that?

Nkt! Uhuru anakosea sana kuchukua loan za hizi kazi…hafai kabisa juu ya mashida!

We will just ignore their stress, tree huggers be damned. The stress levels of zebras is not enough a reason to stop an important project such as this one

Wale wa Tsavo East and Tsavo West have survived over the century as the lunatic express and akina @Meria Mata ply the route. Let the Nairobi ones adapt too

I get you, the mababi zebras wasituletee.

The meter gauge railway passed through the parks when they had real animals…where were the tree huggers then. Or did the old steam and diesel engine make no noise?
Watafute kitu ingine ya kukula pesa ya yule prince mzee pale UK…he is a tree hugger. He talks them too!!
