Defects found in Chinese Project

SELEBI-PHIKWE: Some defects have been detected in a multi-million sewer reticulation system constructed by a Chinese contractor in Botshabelo. The project is still under a two-year defects guarantee. This means the contractor has to rectify the defects at no cost to the Selebi-Phikwe Town Council (SPTC).

"There are some minor defects but these would be communicated to the contractor since the project is still under the defects liability period," the mayor, Amogelang Mojuta said.

In some areas, it is reported that there are no outlets leading to the main pipe from the manhole while water leaking from the pipes is flowing into roads.  Mojuta said such defects should be expected in a major project, citing the North-South Water pipeline.
