      The problem with "hopefully" is that it's too risky. It has to be measurable and not a shot in the dark as things have been in the past in this country. Having said that, I wish this young man all the success and yes, we will be watching closely. Please Cilliers, do not ever get bought, THAT is where the problem comes in.

    I'm so glad that the coalition worked. Anybody that still vote for anc or eff is responsible for loadshedding, the destructive path the anc has been taking this country, the increased number of unemployment, the killing of people by syndicate, the poor performance of the SAPS.

    There were considerations on reestablishing operations at the Pretoria West, North and the old soweto powers stations around the 2000's. The operating costs and the offer of the new, to come Medupi and Kusile were much better on costs. It will be interesting to see how the economic viability assessments turn out today.

What was the reason for combining Cullinan, Bronkhortsspruit, Rayton, and some eastern parts of Pta into one municipality? Was it to pay and support those in Bronkhortsspruit Cullinan and Rayton who refuse to pay for services?
