What is the situation/progress with the proposed hotels in Kruger?

[Richprins]

There are many lodges that go down without question, inside our
parks!


You mean the concession Lodges, H.?

[H. erectus]

Looking at the proposals and concept of the Malelane
project... well, no more than rather a broad strip of
lodges poised.

At this forum, argument was raised as to whether a
proper EIA was necessary regarding the lodge at Skuks,
to service the hotel.

Hotels are hotels and come in differing shapes and sizes!!!
Cannot really blame the entrepreneurs for this.

However......

It seems that the host, Sanparks, are currently
employing a split agenda but if not,then they would
be accountable for misunderstanding, once again....

wasting monies on indecision and ineptitude probably
attached to some money making racket!!

To me the plural of lodge, simply, means lodges, a
viable base for any developer,,.......

[Richprins]

The concession lodges will fall into SP hands if/when they go bust....in fact depending on their contracts, most fall into SP hands after 20 years anyway...

However, they are very small, and have their own road networks, and are widely spread, by and large.

But ja, another scheme, which was done and dusted years ago.

Such as hotel!!!

Have a good look at the proposal - Malelane hotel.

If not, well then Skuks is lined up for a lodge and,
hotel but maybe I'm wrong, though they seem to have many
interested parties lined-up!! Promissory,

It was mentioned that they "Sanparks" would be funding a
venture and a developer the other,... c'monn, Sanparks are
the host and therefore fund everything!!

[H. erectus]

To uptake issues regarding EIA's and what not???
I lose all sense of respect!!!

That is to say, in the mess of current day admin
and social respect, Sanparks you are definitely not
a sound organization forcing down support unto self!!!

If at all you seem to believe that you have a sound mission,
forget it, 'cause most of these crazy ideas come from the
era you so detest!!!!

In other words your creative faculties amount to "ziltch",.

By roping in other individuals, to paint your picture "green"
nah, nah, your'e buying life for a farthing, call a sixpence!!!

[Richprins]

Agreed, H.!

jb has relocated to another town...but may still give info?

I don't know if the left hand knows what the right hand is doing re. .gov and SP...

Ministers are in election mode, and apparently SP too!


But the Skuks hotel has been budgeted for, and that is the mindset.

But the Skuks hotel has been budgeted for, and that is the mindset.

In other words, there will be a lodge to support the conference centre, over
and above there will also be a hotel, to support the continuous flow of human
traffic??????

I would read this thread more often, but can't decipher the lingo. Seriously, is this but a discussion between two people? Any translators out there, janowhatI'msayin?

Hi ExFmem...I do know what you're saying! -O Will try to enforce more clarity here.
