Review of Housing for South Africa's poor

Could be a bit out of reach of U.S. listeners, as it assumes knowledge about the landscape (political and geographic).
Too many numbers thrown at the listener: square footage, occupant count, etc. More vivid, qualitative description would keep it interesting. For example, I don't reckon I'd recognize an RDP home if I came upon one.
Really nice, relaxed read and overall pace. Thoughtful reporting and tone.
And, as always, it's good to have a "solution" story in a sea of "problem" pieces!
