Eight South African employees of the Chinese majority-owned Yangtze Optics Africa Cable (YOAC), which is midway through the construction of one of the biggest local optical fibre cable manufacturing plants, are currently being trained on fibre cable manufacturing, in preparation for the launch of the plant in January 2017. The training programme covers the full spectrum, from optic-fibre colouring, secondary coating, stranding, sheathing to cable testing and quality control.
