Full textThe study investigated tourism as a catalyst to local economic development of the Transkei Wild Coast. The Transkei Wild Coast is an area which stretches from the Kei River mouth south of East London, to Durban South Coast, with seven local municipalities located in the area. These local municipalities are Mquma, Mbhashe, King Sabata Dalindyebo, Nyandeni, Port St Johns, Ngquza Hill and Mbizana. Infrastructure and partnership models were identified as key to the development and growth of the tourism industry in the Transkei Wild Coast. It was found that the status of infrastructure and partnerships is lacking and delivers little or no economic benefits and advances in the Transkei Wild Coast. Factors contributing to the poor performance of tourism-led local economic development by the local municipalities in the Transkei Wild Coast include poor roads, poor communication, lack of infrastructure, erratic electricity supply, and poor quality of water supply. Partnerships both at strategic and implementation levels lack commitment, role clarification and acceptable beneficiation metrics to all involved stakeholders. Infrastructure and partnerships are explained as basic and key necessities in developing a successful tourism industry in the Transkei Wild Coast. The study argues that local municipalities need support to grow the tourism industry to become a key contributor to the local economic development strategy. The Transkei Wild Coast has a wealth of natural resources, culture and history to offer tourists to this area. Local economic viability of the Transkei Wild Coast will improve, which inevitably will lead to an improved standard of living of the host communities. Growth of the tourism industry will lead to growth and development of related industries/businesses. The findings revealed that the majority of Transkei Wild Coast inhabitants support investment in the tourism industry. Prioritisation of tourism as a catalyst to local economic development in the Transkei Wild Coast will unlock other potential economic sectors in the area. For this to succeed, it is imperative that capital infrastructure is improved and credible and beneficial partnerships are created and maintained. Recommendations are proposed to fulfil the State-led mandate for socioeconomic development and advancement at local municipal level in South Africa generally and the Transkei Wild Coast in particular.

Full textA more recent approach to communal rangelands argues that this traditional view has ignored communal farmers' objectives, which are to maximise stock numbers rather than offtake in the form of sales and slaughter, and challenges the view that communal rangelands are necessarily degraded. Long-term livestock records in many former homeland districts of South Africa have shown no appreciable long-term decline in animal numbers. This has led several influential researchers and policy makers to conclude that no loss in productivity has occurred and that these systems are sustainable in fulfilling the objectives of the land users. The aim of this study is to assess the costs of degradation in terms of land users' objectives using a case study in a communal rangeland area in South Africa.
Wentzel, Lance. "An analysis of quality assurance in low-cost housing construction." Thesis, Cape Peninsula University of Technology, 2010. http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.11838/1053.
Full textThe motivation of the public sector is more social and political. The housing crisis is a major political issue for every ruling party. In many countries there are political commitments to housing, but sadly we witness this commitment being misdirected. Every government wants to see that its citizens are housed adequately. Very often it is seen that in its endeavour, government try to follow the private sector process, establishing huge parastatals to carry out the whole process, for example design, construction and financing (Lankatilleke, 1994). Lankatilleke, L. (1994) further mentions that mass produced public sector housing schemes are aesthetic disasters. They are either rows of match-boxes or high-rise blocks with no identity or individuality. There are numerous examples of such housing schemes that have deteriorated into ghettos. This research consequently presents findings which implies that government is being pressurized by the housing backlog within the Western and Eastern Cape, which brings about time constraints and tight budgets. These pressures are transferred to the design teams which need to speedily produce designs for low-cost housing homes within the best possible budget. This results to the implementation of common model designs. It is also founded that contractors ultimately suffer, due to these pressures which do not allow them to produce good quality homes. It is therefore recommended that better community involvement for sustainable methods in the design and construction process should be practiced. This therefore concludes that government should take more responsibility for the delivery processes of low-cost housing as well as the procurement and quality systems to be followed.

De, Veredicis David. "Tracing the ancestors of mpondo clans along the wild coast of the Eastern Cape." Thesis, 2016. http://hdl.handle.net/10539/22542.
Full textOral history and anthropological data indicate that several Xhosa clans in the mPondoland region of the Eastern Cape (formerly the Transkei) were established by individuals of non-African ancestry. Several oral and few written accounts state that circa 1730, survivors from trade- and slave-bearing vessels shipwrecked along the Wild coast of the Eastern Cape. Castaways who had survived the shipwrecking events had assimilated with the indigenous people of the area, married local women, and established clans of their own. The group of clans, which claim their ancestors to be of European and/or Eurasian descent, are known as the abeLungu, meaning “the Whites”. These clans are discerned from other local groups by variations in the practice of rituals from that of traditional Xhosa rituals, as these clans retain an affiliation with the European culture to which their ancestors belonged. Nowadays they still retain subtle phenotypic features like blue eyes, which are seen in several clan members. The identity of these clans has, to date, been shrouded in myth due to conflicting versions in the oral history and anthropological data, which leave the picture of the cultural identity of the abeLungu people unresolved. With the advent of molecular biology, it has been shown that DNA may be used as a tool to trace population ancestry. The non-recombining region of the Y chromosome (NRY) serves as a marker for patrilineal ancestry and similarly mitochondrial DNA, which is inherited from mother to progeny, serves as a record for the matrilineal human history. This study aims at exploring the degree of agreement between culture and genetics by investigating the genetic variation of the abeLungu - a culturally and geographically defined group. Focus is placed on their patrilineal history, since their oral history indicates clan progenitors to be predominantly male, but also due to the patriarchal social structure with regards to marriage and kinship of the abeLungu. Buccal swabs were taken from which extracted DNA was used to perform Y chromosome microsatellite short-tandem repeat (STR) and SNP minisequencing using a total of 60 SNPs and 19 STRs taken from 146 abeLungu clan-affiliated individuals and 42 non-clan members from the greater region of mPondoland. Mitochondrial DNA SNP determination and sequencing analyses were also performed on 188 males and 10 females (the wives/ direct relatives of primary male clan elders), so as to trace the matrilineal origins and examine the congruence between the molecular and anthropological data. The frequency of European and Eurasian haplogroups in the male samples was 69.86%, which are delineated predominantly by European haplogroups R1b, and West Asian haplogroup R1a1a. Haplogroups G, I and Q which occur at high frequencies in Europe and Eurasia were observed as well. It has also been observed (which was as expected) that culturally defined groups with a unique (or a limited number of) common origins whose membership is inherited only through the male line showed a relatively low intragroup variation for genetic markers similarly transmitted. The maternal lineages of the abeLungu clan members segregate with ancient and deeply-rooted African haplogroup L lineages, with increased diversity on account of migration due to their exogamous marriage practices. This study affirms the non-African paternal origin of the abeLungu clans of lineages originating from few distinct founders, and elucidates the previously unresolved oral accounts of genealogical information, which has been transferred across generations with considerable accuracy, despite its propensity for change over time.
