The Once Proud Boer City Nicknamed Rosestad Is No More. Tuesday was the 12th day in which garbage was not collected by the municipality of Bloemfontein, causing mountains of black refuse bags to lie uncollected in the streets in neighborhoods like Pelissier and Lourierpark. Small-scale black farmers close by have been letting their pigs invade the neighbourhoods, ripping open the refuse bags looking for food, leaving a big mess.

Holidaymakers will now have to pay more for that long-awaited holiday due to rise in fuel prices
Posted on Leave a comment
The holiday has already begun for many, and will have to pay more for petrol and less for diesel from Wednesday.
Petrol increases by R0-11 per liter for 93 as well as for 95 degrees, but diesel decreases in price by R0-18 and paraffin decreases by Ro-21 for December month.
Economic experts say the rise in gasoline prices, and the slight drop in diesel and paraffin prices, could be attributed to the weak Rand, which just failed to return to its levels two years ago.

The Automobile Association says South Africa motorists can expect “massive” fuel price cuts in January

A spokesperson for the AA said last weekend that calculations indicate that the price of this fuel will fall further during January 2019.
The expectation is that petrol may drop about R1.19 and diesel prices may decrease by R1.44 while lamp oil (paraffin) is expected to fall by R1.32.
Experts say that price is still too high and should fall by at least another R4.20, but the eagerness of the regime makes the motorist a the most convenient target to exploit .
