Geluk Kroonstad!
Dit is vir die Vrystaatse Sake Bulletin 'n voorreg om te deel in die 150 - jarige viering van Kroonstad as een van die leidende dorpe in die Vystaat. Soos ook uit hierdie uitgawe blyk, het Kroonstad 'n kleurryke en dinamiese geskiedenis, teweeg gebring deur vele geslagte.
Wat huidiglik bemoedigend en opwindend is, is dat die Vrystaat Sake Bulletin te Kroonstad positiewe en daadkragtige leiers en entrepreneurs aangetref het, wat trots is op hul dorp en wat die eiesoortige uitdagings van die huidige tydsgewrig met ywer en bekwaamheid aanpak.
Ons sê graag geluk aan Kroonstad met hierdie besondere mylpaal wat met groot onderskeiding bereik is. Ons beste wense aan die mense en die dorp. Mag julle op die pad vorentoe 'n trotse rekord gestand doen.
The transport challenge
Transport literally provides the wheels of business and progress and in this edition of the Free State Business Bulletin it is clearly pointed out that the roads network in the Free State - as the most central and most traversed province in the country - cannot cope with the load and is crumbling.
Fortunately the indications are that the main roleplayers - Spoornet, the provincial department and the national road agency are in agreement that the time has come for the swing back to rail. Hopefully the business sector will also take the cue and start implementing due steps.
May this modest feature in the Free State Business Bulletin assist in fast-tracking a process to bring rail back in the Free State and in South Africa - so to speak. It is a major challenge to our burgeoning economy.
