Post by: Michael Alexander on January 07, 2008, 02:42:20 PM
Times have changed and at this time in Oranjemund, one tends to get a bit down, people have left and the town is not the same, but there are still a few good things and a few bad things, here's my list, feel free to add...

GOOD THINGS:

1) Gemsboks and the Wildlife
2) Free Water
3) Clean Air
4) Free electricity
5) Lekker river and Beach....
6) Security of the town
7) The school is still good , if you have kids...


BAD THINGS:

1) Plenty of illegals
2) STandards of the people have dropped
3) Standards in the infrastructure has dropped
4) No Old timers or characters here anymore.
5) Company neglects it's social responsibility , ie..Xmas tree

Tell them Mike, tell them!  :emot19:

I just wanted to do my shopping but he wanted to chat and kept me hostage for over an hour!
