Literally playing next to running sewage, seeing you know, old people who are only confined to you know, call it. I mean, actually, in Cosmo, let me tell you a story about COSMO, the Cosmo that's next to Crosby. You know, the old men there had a sewer pipe that clearly blocked somewhere, and then because a lot
Of sewage was suspended underground somewhere, then it created a hole inside his floor. Once it created a hole inside his floor, and so inside his house, he had sewage. And he had to make a plan eventually with little resources and a few donations from his neighbors. He then tried to redirect it to outside his house. He's got a chest infection that he's now trying to treat because of that.
And I'm sure that potentially his lungs are damaged. His neighbor, an old lady next to his house, because of the smell and the contamination that's there, she told me that and she showed me inside there are just flies, like her house is inside flies infested, and she told me that she can't even eat inside her house. She has to take the food that she has cooked and go eat at a neighbor's house somewhere else.
Where she can at least have the enjoyment of the meal that she's having. But she has to return to this house and sleep in there. I think the last thing as a lesson, partly because of those problems with the sewer infrastructure in Joburg, there's also another problem in Joburg of just real serious filth. Job is dirty. I mean, we've had to try and stop sewage dripping into the Juxke River in Ward 81 at the bottom part of.
