This is a wonderful idea. It offers practical solutions not only to the transportation issues that pregnant mothers face, but also aims to address other key issues in the South African context. These include an incentive for taxi operators to become part of formalized economic structures within South Africa via the tax benifits. Formalization of the taxi transportaion industry is a key objective both at provincial and at national level in the country, so this idea fits in perfectly with these objectives.

How do you plan on convincing the government and the kombi industry to buy into this program? It sounds like it will be terribly difficult to implement since you have to get both organizations to back you. You also have to get willing people to volunteer to call in the kombis, get the kombi industry to let you put advertising on their buses, and organize routes for drivers to take. I think your idea sounds amazing but how do you plan to implement it?
