@Radio702 @bonglez My 'pinch me' moment came when the Deputy Minister of Public Works and Infrastructure announced that consultations have begun to establish the Office of the Engineer-General — a concept we've been advocating to address the country's infrastructure challenges

"mistakenly"

Mine submitted my PhD paper on my behalf and made herself the corresponding author in my PhD paper. Now I have to fight to be the corresponding author in my own paper. Such cruelty!!!

[UCES @UCES15]

Congratulations to our chemical engineering colleague from UNISA Palesa Lepallo, product of UNISA Chemical Society (UCES) we're indeed very proud of her & excited to see her achieve what she put her time, energy by utilizing her technical & theoretical knowledge!

Meet Palesa, the founder of Dipalesa Biotech Lab. She runs a Research & Development lab that studies African skin types. She launches her new sunscreen for African skin types with little to no white casting including an innovative concept for people living with Albinism & Vitiligo on the 4th of October with Pick ‘n Pay Woodmead Hypermarket.

The disturbing news that Botswana won't be benefiting from this second biggest diamond it's heartening that the Canadian company will benefit from the discovery.

[Financial Times @FT]

The 2,492-carat stone, discovered by Canadian mining company Lucara, is the biggest known gem-quality find after the Cullinan diamond, discovered more than a century ago. People close to Lucara estimate the stone could be worth upwards of $40mn. https://t.co/ONOqKo83Lm

Engineers exist to solve problems and exploit opportunities. 🇿🇦

[Mbekezeli @MbekezeliMB]

This is actually a flex.

A civil engineer, a mechanical engineer and a chemical engineer are successfully dealing with one of Soutb Africa’s most complex problems*.

*It was made worse by a lawyer, De Ruyter, and a doctor, Makgoba 😬

Any Climate Action which is purely focused on ‘coal phaseout’ will fail. The focus should be adding more cleaner sources to the grid thus decreasing the proportion of energy from unabated coal. Being anti-coal is not equal to Climate Action #EnergyLeadership

[Jacob Maroga @jacob_maroga]

Since 2000 China has added ~1000 GW ( 20 times Eskom) of coal to their grid. 408GW (8 x Eskom) of coal is currently under development in China. China emits 31% of global CO2, RSA its 1.1% . Chinese unemployment is 5%, RSA its 33%. #EnergyLeadership

Congratulations Dr. Kolisa Sinyanya on entering new terrain where your science experience will be of great use to society & you're party.

[Dr Kolisa Yola Sinyanya (PhD) 🌍📚🇿🇦 @Kolie_Yola]

I've joined the United Democratic Movement @UDmRevolution! Bantu @BantuHolomisa convinced me over dinner last night.

[Jacob Maroga @jacob_maroga]

Indonesia is not closing coal power stations. They are building more coal to power new manufacturing ecosystems for batteries and EV’s and attracting massive investment from global investors like Hyundai, LG & CATL. #EnergyLeadership https://t.co/yq3NrRU2Yd

[Khandani Msibi @KhandaniM]

Some of these masters degrees are not real qualifications. What’s the basic 1st degree. ANC has not used the best of black brains that are excluded from both the private & public sector. The best of white brains wouldn’t do politics when they can be part of controlling economy.
