So what are the biggest changes that you've witnessed in the industry over the last 30 years, and which developments would you say have been the most transformative?
D
12:45Detlev DuweGUEST
We have the one part where we've had these fantastic changes on a social and political level, and the landscapes have changed, but what that has also done is it's also changed the way the whole country operates at the moment.

12:58Detlev DuweGUEST
We have had a lot of, um, infrastructure decay over the past 30 years, which has caused challenges for us.
D
13:08Detlev DuweGUEST
We have have had large, um, delays in getting cargo, for example, from the port into the hinterland.
D
13:15Detlev DuweGUEST
We have seen that over the 30 years, there's been a lot more degrading of our rail systems.
