This question I raised many times and in different angles,....

My last attempt at establishing where this common trend will end
had to do with Orpen. Perfectly situated for such malpractice,..

The reply from the EIP was rather blunt,..
a. Not applicable to the Malelane Safari Lodge endeavor,...
b. In any such case would be subject to a BAR undertaking!!!

Mr. Glenn Phillips assured us, mr. Smit, mrs. Smit and mr Furnsby
in a rather humiliating manner about our sources of information!!!

I can assure you all, in no uncertain terms, that the parameters of
exploitation of Kruger and other, no longer there,.

It has become open ended on all avenues and Sanparks have no
longer any constraints that would curtail or prevent them of
concocting crazy ideas.

These methods, applied by .gov, for para state organizations to function,
leave a lot of room for thought!!!~

We have a rather awkward situation here, where a sense of responsibility
would be first too bow under pressure!!!!,.

Too many loopholes when it boils down to self constraint,....abuse of
heritage,...

Good points, H. and Scips!


There is simply an element of trust that has been lost, IMO.

SP lie about things.

And it is one thing to encourage tourism...but the reason should be to allow us to experience OUR property, not to make money!

Today on international tv media and this is not that I wish situations
for comparison yet it strike me profoundly to see how some european
countries go about their natural heritage and "would be possible abuse
thereof"" ,....in other words,.." you touch that tree, you touch the nation",
kind of attitude!!

Some folk over there invest large sums of money into their dwellings and
in anticipation would love to bask in the sun, seemingly a facet of sunbeam
paid for,...but there is a tree,... ,.. my goodness,...a common city council
decision will not suffice,.....

6 hôtels... near 3 gates

And also Mr. G Phillips told us that they intend only two hotels,..
our source of information so to say not trustworthy!!!,,....

Radisson at Malelane, Premier Hotels at Skuks, I take it
for there was a Mr. "Bredenkamp"!!!??? representing,...

Indeed where will it all end and at what cost to society
bordering, only red herrings and false hope!!, concocted!!!

Well Nan,...who knows, though 6 at 3 gates I doubt they
wish to believe that themselves,..

However, with the current socio- economic situation
prevailing, it will be interesting to note what crazy ideas
some folk will support only to justify their own success,..

Well, can now confirm no accommodation inside, just the Disneyworld!


For now....

You mean only Sanparks inside surely????

I won't be surprised if sun international get involved and they build casinos at all these hotels too

No, H...as per the article, no guest accommodation.

But the thing is not even at the EIA stage...this will be a massive EIA/BAR if it happens, which it hasn't yet...
