.KE SGR + CNBC - Why The US Has No High-Speed Rail
Interesting documentary here.. Why The US Has No High-Speed Rail - https://youtu.be/Qaf6baEu0_w Even with digital transformations, the USA is still creating (service industry jobs) which require movement of people + cargo, not just movement of money (online banking services). MAYBE, the KE SGR will break even in 30 years (serving over 90 Mln Kenyans) if Kenyan SMEs are empowered to create more jobs all over Kenya. http://www.worldbank.org/en/news/opinion/2010/04/28/demographic-transition-g... worldpopulationreview.com/countries/kenya-population/
Interesting take. Just one thing. Infrastructure projects are not really supposed to break even. This is not a Profit and Loss situation. The ramifications of great infrastructure supersede the profit motive.

80% of KE's GDP was along the Mombasa Malaba highway and 100 miles on either side. Hence why LAPSET was key. Govenrment facilitates growth through various means. Eric On Fri, 10 May 2019, 18:43 Eng. Dr. Zaipuna O. Yonah via kictanet, < kictanet@lists.kictanet.or.ke> wrote:

Public Infrastructure projects might not have a P&L but they need to make economic sense and also return commensurate economic value! Every coin spent on Infrastructure is a coin that would have been otherwise spent on better healthcare, education, security etc And that is why Public Sector ideally seeks to implement these projects at lowest cost since if the cost exceeds a certain point they actually retard the economy. And thats how you get your White Elephants! Jury is still out on SGR! For now though, its made our import costs from Mombasa almost 2x!
