Obviously they have not given up on the Malelane Hotel........yet

yes but there seems to be an equal or larger number of developments growing outside of the park in the south so even just adding these two as well and the current traffic problems the South of the park is really going to implode sooner rather than later .The average visitor is now exposed to abuse and traffic nightmares it certainly is no longer the pristine nature experiance it used to be and I don't think will ever be again even if they implement mitigating ideas of new roads /service roads etc .I fear the horse is out the stable and across the field already ....I see post after post on FB SANPARKS pages where people report bad behaviour/service/experiences -most of it is deleted quite quickly by admins or blocked and told this is not the right channel ...

The traffic in the south has been a problem for many years now and the only thing that they have done was to raise the quota of day visitors and the Sanparks vehicles, taxi, delivery vans and OSVs are still not counted

Really??
What about Nkulu and Selati?

That is the point, Dzombs. At the meeting Phillips said there would be no new developments, to some applause. The devil is in the detail, as this does not include "existing developments" like Malelane, Selati and Nkuhlu, so a pointless statement by him.

He forgot to add: ".....apart from the ones already planned"
