8:13am, 30 Jul - +27 78 ▩▩▩ ▩▩▩▩: Iam a Zimbabwean truck driver concerned about what is happening at kazungula ferry which crosses the zambezi river to Zambia from Botswana. Usually they use three pontoons, but at the present moment only one is working. Drivers are spending 9 to ten days just because the border next door is charging exorbitant funds to go across to Zambia. Ill give you the breakdown of the money which you're supposed to pay to get to Zambia over just 80km ill pick a truck load of caustic soda. Asycuda and clearing 40 dollars emma 160 .vi.d 10 parking 12 runner 5 altogether =227 dollars pontoons 700rands my concern is why can't Emma charge per distance like the vi.d and bring competition and revenue that's a lot of money rather than chasing vendors and running over infants and airtime vendors.
