ROELIE VAN REENEN: Good day, Jimmy, thank you for the opportunity to have a quick discussion with you. Now, municipalities play a vital role within the agricultural sector in that we as an agricultural community rely on the town’s infrastructure to supply us.
ROELIE VAN REENEN: That forms part of it. What the minister said is that there is going to be more money available, or funds will be allocated to improve infrastructure and services. But that’s the old issue, is that there’s no real plan put forward. It just seems that it’s the same structure and the same setup for failure that we keep on seeing over and over again.
ROELIE VAN REENEN: Well, I think if we refer to it next year, that we do have the election year coming up, we need to vote differently. I don’t really mind what you vote then, but you have to say your say, and as a community member, that remains important. But also, to engage with the municipality, it’s very easy to stand aside with your friends and just complain.
JIMMY MOYAHA: Roelie, what assistance is required from the agricultural community in respect of municipalities? What more needs to be done to create that enabling environment for the agri sector?
