Since operation Hlangula’s inception, dozens of missing children were assisted. The mayor of Port St Johns, Nomvuzo Mlombile-Cingo, says the project is a large scale collaboration. “Children have tags with names and contacts of their parents, so that when that child gets lost, we are able to find them.”In previous years re-uniting the children with their families was quite difficult. The spokesperson for the Department of Social Development in the O.R. Tambo region, Nomasakhe Nonxuba, says the improvments made to the project eradicated this issue.
