Cochabamba, Bolivia, has been facing that for years. Poor Miners leave Potosi and move to Cochabamba, and the sewage cannot support all these additional people. As a result, the city smells like a public urinal. At this time, Cochabamba and Santa Cruz hate Western Bolivia because of the blockades on the roads. Of course, blockades cause huge food losses for trucks carrying produce, meat, and other perishables. I certainly hope that South Africa doesn't try water privatization. Bolivia tried that with Bechtel in 2004, and the indigenous did not even make enough to buy just water!

Im from Cape Town. And this is some leftist leaning propaganda we don't need or have time for.

Look I wouldn't say it's racist. What do you expect to get when you build an informal settlement in a random location with temporary fixes for water and electricity transportation. Of course it's an issue years later when the area is a bit more "built-up" but it was never planned it hasn't been maintained or improved and it was never paid for. It's not structural racism, it's the long-term reality of building something on land that does not belong to you as an individual. I don't see any documentaries about how the informal settlements are affecting the areas that have infrastructure or how the tax system is rigged against high earners or how the majority of low-paying jobs are not developing or not sustainable due to the heavy illegal immigration issues we face. That being said I really like this channel and can't wait to see a good series.
