In South Africa we tend to over critique ourselves, try to find a city in Africa that has this level of development and organization. I know we should strive to develop beyond western countries but we should acknowledge the good that is currently happening too
Problem is when we have that good but just let it crumble or vandalized, then we have to start from scratch which means money is diverted to other stuff that urgently needs attention.
Yes Absolutely, we must appreciate what we have, BUT, we must never, ever be too comfortable.
@@nelsonsibiya9204 very true. In southern Africa we tend to relax thinking we are the best in Africa and not realising that other African countries are fast changing as well. Do you realize that most southern African countries have had stagnant economic growth in comparison to West and East African countries? And this is the most developed region in Africa. Let's not rest on our laurels.
No . SA shouldn’t be the way it is looking at how much money it has . We should have cities the level of most western and European cities because we have the resources and money . This is old and dated
We had. It was never looked after.
Now we don't have
Johannesburg is Africa's Flagship City. Africa's only Mega, Beta city, Africa's number 1 financial capital, the Richest city on the continent by far, and the continent's only mega city that features in the 50 Mega metropolis's across the world. WE NEED TO RECLAIM IT BACK.
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🇿🇦
We have to reclaim it. Its all we have.
Im impressed about how clean and organised the city is getting. Feels safe enough as well.
I am overjoyed. Luxury apartments at the Carlton i have always imagined. A cleaner inner city. Bring back our city! For Gods sake - we are the powerhouse of Africa!
Slowly but surely my dreams for JHB are becoming reality 😭😊 Thank you for the video David 💯👍🇿🇦
I'm from in Uzbekistan. I'm leaving in the Cape town South Africa Rep. In 1992 -93 y. Thanks for your video's. Best . Welcome to the Uzbekistan. 👍👍👍🇺🇿🇺🇿🇺🇿🇺🇿🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
Sbwl for Kimberley to get new developments, let's just hope the new Sol Plaatje University brings in investment
Your wish is mine ... all I see is development on the outskirts of the city ... that cbd deserve a revamp
@@thendarasworld7692 yoh just to see Kimberley developing skyscrapers and green parks
I'm proud of my country 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦 keep on rising our flag
Thanks for this, David. I was in Sandton for a SAPOA conference in 2015 when Parks Tau was still Joburg Mayor. He was invited to speak at the conference and he outlined Joburg's plan for the city
We took a Siteseeing Joburg bus and even then one could see the building revamps that were underway across the city...which was exciting to watch....I will definitely encourage anyone to take the bus tour because you see things from a different perspective.
I absolutely agree that we need to start recognizing what is happening around us as far as developments are concerned. Things not happen over night...but we are often times our worst enemies.
I also follow a channel called The Real South Africa by an American couple who is doing all they can to shutter stereotypes and lies about our country. People are like these and yourself David are what we need to believe in ourselves again
"We don't know how to advertise what we have" - that is the truest statement ever. From our music to our TV shows/movies and our great country. People are always so shocked when they come here as pictures do not give a true impression of the wonderment of this country. We need to market our industries and opportunities.
I saw African Americans reacting to the Netflix series Young, Rich and African at just how beautiful and developed Joburg is. They don't have a clue about what SA has on offer. People yearn to watch our dramas but can't access them. Why? The Nigerians are good at marketing their music to great success and Nollywood (which is substandard to what we produce) is making a killing in the diaspora but SA films are nonexistent on many accessible platforms. Image the employment opportunities if these industries and so many more were consumable/exportable to a global market. We are sleeping while others reap rewards.
Beautiful words that is exactly what I mean! 🇿🇦
Love joburg but as far as Americans go they don't really know about the world there was a blog by an American who asked why Did the British speak American I'm not sure if this was a wind up or for real if it was for real that's pretty scary
I wish Bree street/Lillian Ngoyi could be fixed all the way to end street because it's a mess and not safe
Best city. Love this place😌
I agree we really need to promote this country in a positive way. I've seen than other countries hype their countries even if they not half as beautiful as this country. I'm glad I found your channel
This is just amazing
The best in Africa
Great stuff, thanks for sharing bro
I love your video David. You are definitely right. We need to stay positive, participate in our communities and bring change.
Thank you David, After hearing the SOCA from Executive Mayor Dr Mpho Phalatse. I see many changes 😃
I stated in the City from 2021 until this year and moved to Fourways. I was in Loveday and Marshall Street. The development is impressive. Very clean, safe and good night life balance. I stayed there and I had amazing access to amenities. Woolies, Checkers, Clothing, Designers, David Tlale studios was just up my street bumped to him often there.. Amazing human that soul. Lot's of filming and movies productions. Tom cruise shot in KZN Ladysmith and part of it included a shoot in Fox and Loveday. The idea is turning inner city into a New York City urban living. The thing I miss is party time. It gets down there until morning..crazy
So far I love all your videos that I've watched.
North America is With you CID, Good job GUYS and DAVID. WE 👀 You,
Thank David you always calm my emotions when I'm sad about the state of my country
CID must take care of All 9province CBD
@ Bbb As South Africans, we need to change our mindset about voting along racial lines only. A multi - racial party like the DA can bring out the very best in SA. See " DA- run municipalities really are best at delivering to poor" Politicsweb.
South Africa, especially Johannesburg is beautiful, want to come visit soon, looks awesome and fun.
I agree people don't see enough of the wonderful and amazing places especially in Gauteng.....
Your videos bring hope David especially these ones about the revamp of the Joburg CBD. Thank you for this
🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦❤️❤️
I love these videos. Your doing a fantastic job of documenting all the sights of interest in the city. I would love to see you do a history of the Carlton Centre.
If only we could stop the destruction of the Jhb Central infrastructure.
Each individual that walks works or lives in the city can do that.
Love what you use and have.
Carlton Complex/Center is one of the safe place around Joburg. If someone try to steal something from someone the community and security in large will deal with them.
Best channel in SA keep it up we appreciate u brother
Extremely proud of you and your contribution to the positive information effort!!
There is a lot of capacity (financially, skills, morals, ethics) in the country.
Structurally, the country is ready to leap towards $1.5trn GDP , Extremely exciting!!! There is so much happening and its preparing us for a very healthy growth in the medium term.
1.5 trillion is a stretch thats 5x its current GDP it seems highly unlikely and its not all about GDP, GDP per capita or income, PPP, HDI are far more important economic parameters, countries can have a huge GDP like India or China but compare that to switzerland which has a far lower GDP but the average swiss person is far wealthier with a far far better quality of life, healthcare, life expectancy so GDP is irrelevant
@@bradlangston36 you're misunderstanding, you do not need to educate. What do you see NOT happening that prevents us hitting that number ??
@@masogakekana1606 You say i need educating whilst spewing out dreadful grammar and providing no counter arguments ahaha the hypocrisy. As i said GDP is irrelevant its standard of living thats important and 1.5 trillion GDP is highly unlikely to occur within 30 years
@@bradlangston36 wow Brad. You must be fun at parties. Great vibe.
Hillbrow was the best in the wolrd in the 70,s and 80,s the place to be in the world for immigrants and party haha oke bro greets from holland. ek hou van jo,burg.
Iv been there before, it's got an amazing view
Please visit Braamfontein next Mr David😭😭🙏🙏
Nice detailed video.... ❤
What did you like the most?

Wow it’s looking good, loved the shopping mall in the Carlton.Had a friend who worked in the offices above and also went to a company dance in the Carlton hotel. Was in the 70 s and 80s. Better shopping than the centre of Glasgow where I live now. Brought back Happy memories 👍❤️🏴
Why did you leave SA back to Glasgow?
I left Glasgow ,moved to SA 32yr ago ,👍
@@user-GazarooGuy moved back mainly for family reasons 👍
@Annie Hope all worked out for you,then?
Is it possible that we can get hold of the original plans of the hotel?
Hands down, DA works!!!
Why should trans-net revamp a building, when they can't even get our exported goods to the ports? South Africas ports are voted as being in the top 10 worst ports for ships to dock in the world. Transnet should first fix the ports, before attempting any property development.
Again, typical state infrastructure companies not doing their jobs, and stealing the public's money, and negatively affecting the economy...
Whatever happened to the skating rink from my childhood please? Es South African.
Still in the same place, you need special authorization to go in.
Only us as citizens who can make this country prosper we South Africans we very good in hanging our dirty linens in a public as if we are the worst country yes we have our shot comings but that not take away that we are a beautiful country with good infrastructure you will never see Americans or Europeans talking bad about their country and telling people it's dangerous to visit their country like we as South Africans when we have moved abroad I heard a lot of people saying South Africans are talking bad about their country overseas if you want to visit South Africa they will tell to better visit Australia or New Zealand when good things happens in our country they get sick Like when we host World Cup they we praying and fasting to see things not going well but everything goes well and people have different perception about South Africa because they have seen it for themselves.
The best part of Joburg 😎
Thanks for the positive comment
How do I get up calton hotel
What camera are you using ...very good
What is a CID???
It stands for City Improvement District.
What does cid mean?
City improvement district
ive been to that place before it is not safe
What is a CID?
City improvement district - basically some blocks of the city are managed by a private company to make sure is safe and well maintained.
@@Livinginsatv Oh, I see. Thanks.
No longer the top of Africa.Egypt has recently erected Africa's tallest super tall skyscraper.
Dubai has the tallest buildings but New York is still the most influential city 🤦🏽♂️
The results of voting A N C out now we start to see change. Joburgers bravo.
ANC IS STILL IN GOVERNMENT .DO YOUR RESEARCH .THIS DEVELOPMENT STARTED IN 2021 .WHO WAS THE GOVERNMENT OF THE DAY IN 2021 .
I watch your video and the footage is sadly educational of what happened to a great Hotel, BUT muted the sound because of the nonsense you spoke of everthing been under controle. This must be in another dimension or anohter earth - but is not this one. Yes you literally just about walked around the entire High Court block and aboviously that imidiate area it will be "under control" and have excessive abnormal police presence. You will be lucky to see any policeAny other place, and I am not even going to talk about the response time that is mesured in hours, NOT minutes...
Based on this comment, it is clear that you are not aware of city improvement districts. These ones are managed privately. I will leave here a link with extensive coverage about them czcams.com/play/PLuKKdXhv4SaMAvGWqjnfSaLKNUgOtg7gW.html
whats a CID ?
City improvement district. It means certain blocks of the city are managed privately.
