Its profile may have changed, but one constant has remained throughout the years \u2013 the Zulu Rickshaw Runners. Durban\u2019s first 10 rickshaws were imported from Japan in 1892 by sugar magnate, Marshall Campbell. To everyone\u2019s astonishment, they rapidly became a popular mode of transport in and around Durban and soon crowded the streets of the city. In those days, being a Rickshaw Runner \u2013 the man who pulled the rickshaw cart \u2013 was a (comparatively) well-paid and sought-after position. The City proposed that these men wear simple calico uniforms, which they embellished with traditional Zulu adornments, giving rise to the now-famous Durban rickshaw dress. Today, rickshaw men are an indelible feature of the Durban beachfront!.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Watch a Video:<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p \/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Durban in the News: VW, German govt in project to convert PE plant into R135m medical facility: Volkswagen Group South Africa (VWSA) has made its Port Elizabeth plant available as a temporary medical facility in the fight against the Covid-19 pandemic.
