“First tell us why the SGR display boards are configured in Chinese. Is we China? Is China we? We is China? China is we?” asked one Kiama Amaru.
This comes in the wake of racism claims made by some SGR employees who alleged that their Chinese supervisors were mistreating them.
In connection with the same, Government Spokesman Erick Kiraithe on Wednesday asked Kenyans to appreciate what China Road and Bridge Corporation (CRBC) has achieved in the operations of the SGR.
He further added that the modern train infrastructure system required individuals with the right mindset, moral principles and workplace values.
