Speaking at the International Federation of Consulting Engineers Global Infrastructure Conference in Cape Town, Manuel said the sector must actively influence key decisions. With the government set to spend over a trillion rand on infrastructure in the next three years, he stressed the urgency of industry involvement in revamping roads, ports, rail, and energy systems.
