Rather daring though enlightening, Quite absurd that we
need to rely on school kids opinion! Probably true!!

However this kind of outsourced info, makes the credibility
of Sanparks, the laughing stock!!! Only goes to prove that
they are finance driven in their custos naturae!!

Eisshh boet, friend in fur,...

There is this and for the lack of a better word, understanding
that should the "curator" be operating on already disturbed land
then it will not require any obligations.

Hence the 15 bed new development at Afsaal and so forth and so
on. There happened to be a church so why not another one???
Skukz.

To be quite honest the other religions are entitled to such. Many
practicing on the lawns outside! Fact of the matter, Sanparks created
this opportunity for conflict!!!

Kruger Park, being a very spiritual place, should never have been subjected
to any particular religion, if only for appeasement value back dating!

Same goes for the golf course!!!!

I'm sorry for standing on toes here, a spade will remain a spade!!

KNP Launches Prayer Facilities for the Muslim Community

KNP LAUNCHES PRAYER FACILITIES FOR THE MUSLIM COMMUNITY

In line with international norms, as well as its vision of “connecting society”, South African National Parks (SANParks) is pleased to announce the opening of the first Muslim Prayer Facility at the Skukuza rest Camp in the Kruger National Park (KNP), which took place today, 3 December 2018.

Four more facilities will be opened in due course at Lower Sabie and Satara Rest Camps as well the Afsaal and Tshokwane Picnic Sites.

“This project was facilitated by the SANParks Honorary Rangers JHB South Branch, who within a very short space of time raised the funds required for the development”; said the KNP Managing Executive, Glenn Phillips.

The facility will include a wash up area (Wudhu Facility for both males and females); Muslim guests will need to provide their own prayer mats (Musallas).

The facility in Skukuza Rest Camp is located on the pathway between the Clock tower and the Stevenson Hamilton Memorial Library.

I don't agree......

Don't get me wrong. I'm happy that is was privately funded but do they really get so many muslim tourists so that they need to built these type of facilities.

What about our local saffies then -O-

What do we get -O-
