Beskrivelse

The South African National Parks says the Kruger National Park remains one of the country's critical destinations. Spanning nearly two million hectares across Limpopo and Mpumalanga, with its eastern boundary running along the Lebombo Mountains bordering Mozambique, Kruger remains one of the world's largest protected areas.  Today (30 May ) marks 100 years since the Park was proclaimed as the country's first national park. In 1926 the Kruger National Park was transformed from a game reserve to a tourist attraction that prioritises nature conservation. To date the Kruger attracts nearly two million visitors annually and has retained its standing as a top African safari destination. It has become a must visit destination for locals and visitors alike. Bongiwe Zwane caught up with Willie Aucamp, Minister of Forestry, Fisheries and the Environment

Madlanga Commission Commences For The Third And Final Leg

: President Cyril Ramaphosa says the Madlanga Commission serves as a necessary cleansing process for the country and the criminal justice system in particular. He was speaking to the SABC News on the side-lines of the launch of the Gauteng ANC voter registration campaign at Riversideview in Diepsloot, North of Johannesburg on Saturday. Ramaphosa received the commission's second interim report on Friday. The Madlanga Commission is investigating criminality, political interference and corruption in the criminal justice system. It is expected to finish its work at the end of August and submit its final report to the president. The president says he is still studying the interim report as our Politics Reporter Ntebo Mokobo reports followed by our Sunday discussion on the commencement of the Madlanga Commission tomorrow. Our guests are our reporter, Sibahle Motha together with the spokesperson of the Madlanga Commission, Jeremy Michaels and Andy Mashaile, security expert and former SA Interpol crime ambassador
