I’m reminded by the Mtata disaster that when the Jozana dam was constructed I was one of the Officials who were liaison between McAlpine Construction and the Government.
I was privy to discussions, the maps etc and I remember that they indicated the pathway of water in the case of damage to the dam. New Rest did not exist by then but I know that parts of it are on that pathway. I’m not trying to cause panic but just sounding an alert in the hope that someone will be preemptive especially regarding maintenance.
Research has found that the time around an election increases the levels of stress across the nation, regardless of who will be getting our vote. Constant media coverage and debates in the home, workforce, or on social platforms, along with concerns about how the results of the election will affect our lives and society, or have the potential to have a negative impact on our well-being.
But now we are not talking about our own lives as natural beings, but but our businesses as legal persons. I choose the catering business for this blog. We need to create a safe haven for when we are “connected” and also when we are not connected. Advocacy groups, also known as lobby groups, interest groups, special interest groups, pressure groups, or public associations, use various forms of advocacy or lobbying.

A pressure group is formed when people or companies of similar interests come together and discuss strategies aimed at overcoming stumbling blocks. Somewhere on this website, under NPO SMALL BUSINESS FORUM the following are some of the questions posed: *Have you ever serviced an order (or tender/bid) and not been paid? *Do you need legal backing regarding your small business problems?
These are only two examples that could be of common interest. This calls for discussion
