There is where your problem is, this article stipulates different from what you are talking, where did you get those prices?. According to this article, total cost by SGR for 20feet container goes up to $1470, while by road is only $650.

The articles says that, it is $500 to carry 20ft container by SGR to Nairobi, but handling changes increase costs to more than 100% and to $1470. Kunta Kinte, am sure you have understood only these information very clearly, the problem is you are at denial. Better get out of denial and start to accept the situation so that you can advice wisely you leaders.
