Plaaslike ekonomiese ontwikkeling is van kardinale belang as Suid-Afrika ekonomies wil herstel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dit is die mening van Christo van der Rheede, adjunk- uitvoerende direkteur van Agri SA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Van der Rheede was die gasspreker by die bekendstelling en stigting van Bergrivier-munisipaliteit (BM) se Ekonomiese Ontwikkelingsforum (EDF).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die geleentheid is Donderdag 5 November by die Org de Rac-wynlandgoed buite Piketberg gehou.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Verskeie plaaslike besighede, NRO\u2019s, skole, polisiekantore en sakekamers het die geleentheid bygewoon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cPlaaslike ekonomiese ontwikkeling is \u2019n benadering tot volhoubare ekonomiese ontwikkeling wat moet lei tot \u2019n verbetering in die kwaliteit van lewe vir almal in die plaaslike gemeenskap. Dit moet geskied deur middel van besigheidsontwikkeling, om beleggings te lok en die direkte en indirekte skepping van werksgeleenthede,\u201d aldus \u2019n voorstel van BM. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDeur middel van plaaslike ekonomiese ontwikkeling sal ons entrepreneurs skep,\u201d het Van der Rheede aangevoer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOns kan al die grond uitdeel en kiste geld uitdeel, maar ons mense het \u2019n gebrek aan idees (om geld te maak). \u201cOns moet vra of ons plaaslike munisipaliteit besig is om \u2019n omgewing te skep waar entrepreneurs kan groei?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Van der Rheede het ook plaaslike besighede en BM gemaan om private eienaarskap terug aan die gemeenskap te gee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAs mense nie eienaarskap het nie, het hulle niks om te verloor nie. Ons gaan bereid moet wees om dapper stappe te neem.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Aletta van Sittert, bestuurder van strategiese dienste by BM, in samewerking met die Suid-Afrikaanse Vereniging van Plaaslike Regerings (Salga), het \u2019n voorstel voorgehou en besighede aangemoedig om in te koop by die idee van die EDF.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Van Sittert het nege projekte genoem waar BM hoop om by die EDF baat te vind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die projekte sluit onder meer \u2019n meesterplan vir landbou en grondhervorming in, \u2019n openbare vervoerstelsel, Bergrivier se eie Yellow Pages<\/i> en die ontwikkeling van informele handel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Vier werkkomitees is na afloop van die toesprake gestig, wat sal help om die EDF op die been te bring. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die komitees sal onder meer omsien na die bestuur en die funksies van die EDF, landbou en landbou-verwerking, ontwikkeling van entrepreneurs en die ontwikkeling van onderwys en jeug.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Evert Manuel, uitvoerende burgemeester van BM, het ges\u00ea hy is opgewonde oor die stigting van die EDF en het besighede aangeraai om aktief deel te neem aan die forum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOns hoop is om met die forum vir Bergrivier \u2019n ekonomiese inspuiting te gee.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
