Die terrein van die Upington- Internasionale Lughawe was een van die talle verwaarloosde punte in die dorp wat onlangs deur die AfriForum-tak in Upington as deel van sy #VegEnBou-week skoongemaak is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cUpington maak staat op toerisme en indien niemand na die dorp omsien nie, gaan toeriste dit nie besoek nie,\u201d s\u00ea Werner Strauss, die organisasie se distriksko\u00f6rdineerder in die Kalahari, oor die aksie wat hulle van 22 tot 30 Maart aangepak het. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Op 22 Maart is die hoek van Dr. Nelson Mandelarylaan en Hillstraat skoongemaak en die bome gesnoei om die sypaadjies meer toeganklik vir voetgangers te maak. Drie bakkievragte tuinvullis en twee bakkievragte rommel is verwyder. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Op 22 en 23 Maart is die skoonmaak-aksie by die lughawe aangepak na talle klagtes oor die toestand van die lughawe-terrein ontvang is. Strauss s\u00ea di\u00e9 lughawe is van kritiese belang vir toerisme in die Noord-Kaap. Die tuine en paaie is skoongemaak, gras gesny en bome gesnoei. Sowat 160 sakke tuinvullis is verwyder. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Op 24 en 25 Maart is die park in Rondomstraat netjies gemaak sodat die gemeenskap weer die park kan benut en geniet. Die muur langs die park, wat vier maande gelede tydens \u2019n motorongeluk beskadig is en nooit herstel is nie, is herbou. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Op 29 Maart is die sirkel en middelman tussen Dr. Nelson Mandelarylaan, Borchet- en Bultstraat, skoongemaak. 70 sakke vullis en tuinafval is verwyder, drie sproeiers is vervang en ander herstel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Strauss bedank die vrywilligers wat tyd, hulpbronne en energie ingesit het om die aksie \u2019n sukses te maak, en in besonder vir Henk Opperman (DA-raadslid) wat sy bakkie beskikbaar gestel het; Johan Bezuidenhout van BB Spares en Dixon Batterye vir die 8-ton trok waarmee groot hoeveelhede tuinafval weggery is; Upington-tuindienste wat die tuinafval ontvang het om kompos mee te maak; Husselman Stene vir stene om die muur langs die park te herbou; Lumber City vir verf en toerusting om die herboude muur te verf en Enson Elektries wat verwers gere\u00ebl het; en Sakkie Spangenberg en Phillo Nel vir kettingsae om bome te snoei. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAs die Dawid Kruiper-munisipaliteit nie hul basiese pligte aan die gemeenskap wil nakom nie, moet die gemeenskap na homself kyk. Dit is verblydend om te sien hoe \u2019n gemeenskap inisiatief neem en saamwerk om \u2019n verskil te maak. Dit maak \u2019n mens trots,\u201d s\u00ea Strauss. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It has a long-standing history of serving the community with news and information pertinent to the region. The newspaper, distributed in the capital and more than 20 towns, is also read online in other parts of the vast province, and has been an important source of information for residents of the Northern Cape. The publication is geared towards Afrikaans and English-speaking readers, with the content reflecting the cultural diversity of the province. Like the other regional newspapers in South Africa, NoordkaapBulletin has had to adapt to changing media landscapes, including the rise of digital news platforms. However, it remains a significant part of the media landscape in the Northern Cape, helping to keep communities informed and connected.","email":"noordkaapbulletin@novusmedia.co.za","telephone":"+27514047600","legalName":"Novus Media (Pty)
