In a letter from Transnet Port Terminals (TPT) to the SA Association of Ships Operators and Agents (Saasoa), the port operation explains its contingency plans for the World Cup. Part of it reads: “TPT management believe that it is important that we demonstrate our national pride....” To achieve this it plans to have TV facilities at what it terms “key locations” in all the terminals and office blocks for all staff to watch the Bafana Bafana first round games and the final. “Operations within all terminals will stop from 30 minutes before the game to 30 minutes after the game.”
