Quince Mil is doing its part to get ready. The number of boarding houses - mainly rooms crafted of plywood and plastic sheets - has jumped from two to more than 30 and the residents say there has been an explosion in restaurants, bars and small shops as folks get ready for the highway, instead of dirt road, traffic. The population has more than doubled since the last census in 2007, when there were fewer than 1,000 people in the town...

These challenges are based in reality. And that's why we restructured ourselves. This renewal came at the right time to meet these challenges. And it's in how we meet them that we will show...
TIME: You're saying there have been mistakes. Zuma: That's part of the reality we have to look at. It's 15 years into our democracy, and you cannot still say after 15 years, after 20 years, that you are not able to do X, Y and Z.
