President Cyril Ramaphosa has offered an optimistic assessment of the economic reforms being undertaken in South Africa’s electricity and freight logistics sectors, amid growing concern about the pace of progress with regard to opening the country’s railways and ports to competition and signs of potential stalling in the electricity sector.
