    Eastern South Africa II 10th - 24th February 2017 (15 days) Trip Report Southern Carmine Bee-eater by Gareth Robbins Trip report by compiled by tour leader, Gareth Robbins Photos by David Cook, Gareth Robbins & Adam Riley Trip Report – RBT SA - Eastern South Africa II 2017 2 ___________________________________________________________________________________________ Tour Summary Today was our arrival day and some of us just spent a leisurely time birding in the garden at our guest house in Kempton Park, Johannesburg. There were a few bird feeders placed in the garden, which attracted good numbers of Red- headed Finches, Cape and House Sparrows and Laughing Doves. Karoo Thrush and Grey Go-Away-Birds were also seen in the garden and Western Cattle Egrets were seen flying overhead. In the evening, we all met at dinner and discussed the program for the first full day of the tour. We left our guest house before sunrise and drove in the direction of Pretoria. Just outside the city, we stopped for a quick coffee at a petrol station and here we saw Cape Wagtail, House Sparrow, African Palm Swifts, Southern Masked Karoo Thrush by Gareth Robbins Weavers and Southern Red Bishops. Shortly after the sun had risen, we had arrived at the start of the famous Zaagkuildrift Road. We all immediately noticed that the area had received good rain, as the grass was at least one meter tall. Some of the first birds we saw were the Red-backed and Lesser Grey Shrikes, Scaly-feathered Weavers, Zitting and Desert Cisticolas, as well as a few Rufous-naped Larks. A little further down the road, we managed to see Rattling Cisticola, Lesser-striped Swallows, Magpie Shrikes, Speckled Mousebirds and we also had great looks at a Diederik Cuckoo.

    GERT SIBANDE DISTRICT MUNICIPALITY FINAL IDP 2011/12 TO 2013/14 A DISTRICT MUNICIPALITY STRIVING TO EXCEL IN GOOD GOVERNANCE AND QUALITY INFRASTRUCTURE Gert Sibande District Municipality i Foreword by the Executive Mayor It gives me great pleasure to present the Draft Integrated Development Plan for the 2011/12 to 2013/14 Financial Years, in the last year of this Current Term of Office. In reviewing our 2010/11 IDP and subsequently drafting our IDP and Budget respectively for 2011/12 to 2013/14 and beyond, we have consulted quite extensively with our communities in all our constituent Local Municipalities through their varying groupings using our IDP Representative Forum and other IGR structures institutionalised within our Municipality. Culminating from the state of the Nation and state of the Province Addresses respectively, and aforementioned consultation and engagements with varying stakeholders the following Key Development objectives were identified as pertinent in bringing about improved quality of life for our entire populace:- Facilitate creation of more jobs and descent work; Form strategic partnerships in fighting hunger and poverty; Advocate for access to quality education for all our citizens; Ensure proper health care for all our communities; Ensure sustainable development of all rural communities within our jurisdictional area; Harness the building of safer and secure communities To date resounding success has been realised in number of areas, where many of our people are living decent lives as a result of the services provided by the District in collaboration with its social partners. Whilst much has been achieved, there is still much that needs to be done to reverse and ultimately eradicate undesired consequences of underdevelopment, inequality, unemployment, HIV/AIDS and poverty.

    FF F Msukaligwa Local 1e- + Municipality AMENDED 2020 / 2021 IDP ii Foreword by the Executive Mayor Since the dawn of democracy, practitioners of public affairs have been called upon to refine and rationalize the various forms of public engagements to ensure the best outcomes for all stakeholders. Public management and governance has seen a myriad of demands on the rules of engagement, implementation of decisions and accounting for outcomes. Our local government sphere often faces the perennial demands to achieve more with disproportionately meagre resources. This scenario calls for closer interaction and appreciation of priorities as modern society becomes more diverse, not only on cultures or values but also on generational tastes and expectations. Maximum attendance, meaningful participation, rational expectations, are virtues than still need to be cultivated further if we are to emerge from consultations with the requisite outcome of our consultation. The advent of the Corona-virus and the subsequent declaration of the lockdown, might put a damper on our consultation. Public participation as we know it has been restricted to video conferencing or other form of electronic communication. This method has a potential of polarising communities and create some form of unnecessary 'class struggle'. We all appreciate the dire choices we faced and have left no stone unturned in ensuring that all forms of communication are utilized to bring the message of consultation home. Inadvertently, the lockdown regulations confined residents to their homes and it could be assumed that they were therefore available to listen to the radio and had the time to read the publications we sent out.
