IT has been interesting to observe all the goings-on this holiday season.
Reports seem to be a bit mixed concerning just exactly how good, bad or ugly our summer season was.
To a large degree the holiday experience will depend on where you spent your time.
It seems the further south you were, the less water you had. We’ve covered the latest on the Ugu crisis in great depth.
What’s undeniable is that some visitors were extremely unhappy. This is not a good advert for our area.
Steps do need to be taken to bring about a consistency of service that leaves holidaymakers and investors having confidence in our area.
The locals too would like to know that things are in order.
We can’t simply rely on the fact that we have beautiful beaches, stunning views and so much to do in our area.
If the basic services are not there, we will succumb to ‘entropy’ as one caller described it: a state of decay; or gradual decline into disorder.
Hope deferred can make the heart sick, so the saying goes.
The reverse is true, too. A longing fulfilled can bring great joy.
Here’s a great opportunity for all to work together – even though they may have strong and different opinions.
As Madiba once said, it seems impossible until it’s done.
Let’s back ourselves to get it done!
