Please don't comment when you do not know what I am talking about.

What Mel's comments are concerned the discussion was exclusively centred on SA and not on any other country, so it has absolutely no sense making a comparison with other countries.

The MTPA’s staff went on strike this morning, and it is currently unclear when the situation will reach its conclusion.

The Mpumalanga Tourism and Parks Agency’s (MTPA) staff are currently on strike through the National Education, Health and Allied Workers’ Union (Nehawu). The strike started this morning.

The MTPA’s spokesperson, Kholofelo Nkambule, said this has affected their nature reserves as well, which are closed for the public at this stage.

“The management is currently in discussion with Nehawu to determine the issues of concern that, among others, relate to the filling of senior management positions in the new organigram as well as salary disparities.



“We are not in a position to indicate when the strike will end. Once both management and Nehawu have finalised their discussions and agree on a way forward, the operations at all our offices, including the nature reserves, will resume.”

The MTPA continues to monitor the situation and will provide an update in due course.

Waterfalls managed by South African Forestry Company Ltd (Safcol) are unaffected.

This is a developing story.
