Well, have had some contact on the real media, thanks to this thread?
It would be nice if we/you could find out the name of the transport company!
And who is on the board of directors?

As it stands:
1. Only official SP reply is it was "essential goods" allowed through due to protests. (No official reply after discussions 10 days later.)
2. Facebook comment suggesting Mr Sibiya had no idea, and says it was unacceptable.
3. SP reply to media stating the trucks were delivering telephone poles to Kruger.
Normally, SP would have slammed 2 and 3 by now?

Get the company name and google it, or you guys still work with smoke signals.
If you google joint ventures Moz and SA you will find 3 possible candidates, I will find out this weekend wich one. And no, a fishing cannery does not use treated poles.

Sanparks answer to why they suddenly have a 'Cargo Carrier' tariff (TBA) on their tarrifs page.
Good Afternoon 'Mites;
In regards to the Cargo Carriers on the General Information on Tariffs on the website http://www.sanparks.org/parks/kruger/to ... ariffs.php,
Generally these will be buses but you also have from time to time suppliers and delivery trucks that might come to the park..

Gipetto,
Your are very vague on your answer. The only ones I can think of is the guys that pay my salary. They are quite essential.

Tourist on buses each pay their own conservation levy, or as per a group deal...that is nonsense!
you also have from time to time suppliers and delivery trucks that might come to the park..
They must be joking! There is a constant flow of delivery trucks to the camps! And they pay squat at the gate...it is part of their contract!
Please someone help SP!

If I was part of a group coming to KNP in a bus, I'd be highly offended to be called 'cargo'.
