Africa Wild

It's sad to think that millions of tax money spent on home improvements to a large estate on the Eastern Cape rural flats could have been used to inject some cash into the National Parks and possibly prevented the rise of the Big Yellow M in our beloved Kruger, and the sight of a life-jacket touting canoe-floater going down the Sabie River while on your epic safari.

Gump, I agree with you, any restaurant chain/franchise is better than what we have, but I get so irritated when SanParks management try to sell the idea based on a load of crap.
I have no problem with either of the above 2 franchises being in the camps at Kruger, but why try to sell it on the idea that they will be a crowd puller. When did anyone make a decision to go to a game reserve based on what food franchises were there.

Kzn Provincial Government injects R600 million into their Parks...budgeted for annually!!

SANParks' shortfall is not even close to that!

Also, Kruger got a massive cash injection from Government recently specifically to cover the rhino poaching problem...will try to find the amount...

They are making it up as they go along...

I am assuming due to financial constraints bonus pay outs to the board will be put on hold, till a better financial projection occurs ?

Indeed you are quite correct FG but this action would only underline the fact that
Sanparks's previous strategy turned sour!!!

Question is,.........

"How sour can this one go"??

Just imagine.....

A lion takes down a Zebra and up rushes a spotty faced kid - "You want flies with that."
