Friends of our City2010/05/20 The launch of the "Friends of our City" campaign is innovative and worthy of support. Some citizens have reacted negatively to it by claiming their right to acceptable services for which they have paid. |
Pietermaritzburg Airport2010/06/24 Since the beginning of 2006, Airlink has had 6 249 scheduled flights into Pietermaritzburg. The number in each year has declined steadily from 1 681 in 2006 to 1 270 in 2009 and a monthly average of 93 until the end of May this year. |
Friends of Our City2010/07/01 Some weeks ago, our President said in an interview on East Coast Radio that the Chamber urged people in the city to support the Municipality by paying their dues timeously and, if possible, early, so as to ease the cash flow burden. |
Outstanding Fines2010/10/07 I was a very proud chairperson when Safe City Pietermaritzburg presented the Mayor of Msunduzi with a laptop computer which would enable the city to implement a programme of fine recovery from the thousands of motorists who have failed to pay up. |

Sister Cities as Economic Development Tool2011/02/13 I have just been speaking to an inspiring gentleman named Dennis about ICT connectivity in South Africa and a Korean-funded ICT project in Edendale, the township on the city's doorstep. |
Events Tourism2011/03/02 Having just had two of our major annual events, the Midmar Mile and the Dusi Canoe Marathon, made me think, once again, of the power of events tourism. |
Airlink out of PMB2011/03/09 I find that whenever I am required to fly to Johannesburg, I have to prepare myself mentally a few of days before the scheduled flight. I have to brace myself, not because I am afraid of flying, but because of the enormous effort required to get there from Pietermaritzburg. |
Tourist Season in Pietermaritzburg2011/06/03 The other day I was writing a tourism article for a magazine, and, I must admit, that having made a career change, I felt somewhat liberated – I can now approach this from a perspective other than a destination marketing perspective. |
