The magnitude of the monetary crisis that has hit the world, is fast beginning to become a reality among South Africans. Indeed, it is not just another economic slump; it is a tsunami of frightening proportions.
The bottom line is this: Tightening the girdle and buckling up are going to fall hopelessly short. By themselves, such actions simply will not save the day and provide a sure footing.

These are the requirements we regard as indispensable key elements in any real and serious effort for economic survival and, hopefully, renewed growth.
This conviction, in essence, is underscored by our promotion of the knowledgeable, experienced and tireless young chartered accountant, Christa Mouton, to a directorship in our hierarchy as from 1 March this year, as well as our appointment of a band of talented and enthusiastic graduandi earlier this year.
We are convinced that they all will augment our business endeavours significantly.
